Amending the charter of the town of Rockland

Became law

This already passed. Here's what you can still do.

1. Push for repeal or amendment

Legislative staff still count constituent contacts on enacted laws. A steady mail stream is what gets a bill onto the next session's repeal docket. Pick “Oppose” below and the message will frame the ask around repeal, amendment, or enforcement relief.

3. Tell people the bill affects

Most people don't hear about a state-level bill until enforcement starts. A short note now (not a thread, just a link) gives the people most affected time to plan.
