I hope you enjoyed your time with family and friends during the past holiday season. I’m writing to let you know that Rep. Marjorie Decker is scheduling community office hours to hear from constituents about what’s on their minds. We’re in the midst of a critical phase of the legislative process when we work hard to move bills out of committee and onto the floor for a vote that adds protections for immigrants, our environment, and our healthcare. It’s important to know which issues are most critical to residents as we continue to work for social justice and equity. Attached is a flyer I’d appreciate you sharing on your list serve. Please let your group members know Rep. Decker would be happy to schedule a time to meet if her office hours are not compatible with their needs. Feel free reach out to me in Rep. Decker’s office if I can be of further assistance or if you have any questions. Thank you , Fran Fran A. Cronin Legislative Aide Office of Rep. Marjorie Decker MA State House, Rm 166 Office: 617.722.2692
