UPCOMING EVENTS

JAMESTOWN FINANCIAL TOWN MEETING

Monday, June 2nd at 7pm. Lawn Avenue School

Just so you know:

  • Just like the Jamestown’s budgets since 2013 (and earlier), this year’s budget is under the state’s mandated 4% cap.
  • This year’s budget fully supports the school, as the School Committee works to address a shrinking school population.
  • The only new initiatives in the budget are for the renovation and repair to town facilities and replacement of equipment. This effort was deferred for five years as the town dealt with Covid and inflation.

We will be voting on important Bonds for Jamestown’s future.

ACTION ALERTS

SUPPORT THE BOTTLE BILL

Send a message to your state legislators today telling them we want waterways, parks, and beaches free of beverage container litter. Let them know you support the solution: a bottle bill!

Okay Democrats. Yes, we lost an election. Yes, we need to talk about why. Yes, we need to get ready to win the next one.

Right now, there is work to be done and it’s not going to be easy. The wholesale capitulation of the Republican Party to a self-aggrandizing billionaire is mind blowing. We all know that the only way to deal with a bully is to stand up to him.

Stand up. Push back. Speak out. Resist. Whatever you want to call it. We call it doing the right thing. We call it good trouble.

In the United States of America, we also call it Democracy. Times a wasting, let’s get back to work!
