Event held Tuesday, January 14, 2020 at First Parish in Concord, 20 Lexington Road, Concord, MA

Our Massachusetts political system is more broken than we may realize. State Representatives Tami Gouveia and Jon Hecht will fill us in on life in the Massachusetts State House, and let us know what’s working, what isn’t, and what’s needed to fix it.
