ABOUT US
OUR MISSION
Holyoke is at a pivotal moment. Issues like preparing for climate change, transitioning to green energy, strengthening infrastructure, addressing structural inequities, managing finances, and enacting strategic plans and vision require many hands on deck pulling in the same direction.
Our PAC is dedicated to doing the research to make informed endorsements of candidates. We are watching all the meetings, reading all the documents, and sharing our information to keep Holyoke voters informed and hold elected officials accountable.
WE ARE HOLYOKE FORWARD
Two years ago, the voters of Holyoke voted for new leadership on the City Council, favoring candidates with a cooperative and solutions-based approach to governance. This new council has many achievements to its name: increasing resident accessibility to government; supporting the rights of tenants; supporting good wages; voting to fund the building of a new middle school; improving trash and recycling efforts; and much more. The new council demonstrated its commitment to the hard work of solving problems rather than engaging in obstruction and grandstanding.
But two years later, pressing issues remain. The work of preparing for climate change, transitioning to green energy, strengthening infrastructure, addressing structural inequities, managing finances, and enacting strategic plans remains before us. Furthermore, the progress of the past two years can be easily undone if reactionary forces return to power.
Let’s keep going!
