Did you see the Globe this week, with its article proclaiming: “Reproductive rights advocates in Massachusetts and across the country are launching aggressive campaigns for the new year?” That is putting it mildly. On the Anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision, the governor of New York celebrated his signing of a radical new pro-abortion […]
While most of us were getting ready for Thanksgiving this past November, the first two recreational marijuana dispensaries (AKA “pot shops”) quietly opened in Massachusetts. Less than a month later, on December 13th, two Mountview Middle School students were taken to the hospital after eating gummies infused with tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive ingredient found in […]
Like many of you, I spent some time over the weekend finalizing my year-end giving for 2018. I know how important the month of December is for organizations like MFI that are dependent on the generous gifts of donors like you. Many thanks to all of you who have supported the work and mission of […]
I’ve been fielding phone calls and emails over the past year from teachers and parents who are struggling to navigate the new speech codes being implemented at schools around the Commonwealth. Almost as soon as the first gender identity laws were passed in MA, our state board of education gained national attention for an 11-page […]
This week, at a conference in D.C., I had dinner with Walt Heyer. You may recognize his name, as he was one of the first brave souls to speak out about “detransitioning.” For almost eight years, Walt, born a boy, lived as a transgender “woman” – complete with surgeries and hormones. However, he eventually realized that […]
After celebrating a time of thanks last week, today Americans all over the country are participating in #GivingTuesday. This online celebration is an opportunity for members of the community to give back to local non-profits in charitable end-of-the-year giving. MFI is honored to defend our shared family values in our Commonwealth, but we need your help […]
Last night was a disappointing one for family values in the Commonwealth. Although the much touted “blue wave” largely failed to materialize across much of the U.S., it hit Massachusetts like a Nor’easter. Many strong pro-family candidates for state office lost their races, including incumbent Jim Lyons of Andover. We will certainly have our work […]
Tomorrow is election day! Our friends at the Renew MA Coalition have assembled non-partisan voter guides for many of the races that will be on tomorrow’s ballot. Find your voter guide (or guides), and email it to your neighbors. If your local race isn’t listed, there may not be a challenger or there may be […]
We have less than a week until election day! This Tuesday, November 6th, we will finally have the opportunity to vote No on Question 3 and Repeal the Bathroom Law! There’s breaking news that this law is putting children (specifically a 10 year old girl in a Woburn Target bathroom) at risk. If you haven’t yet seen last […]
Our final shipment of No On 3 push cards just arrived today! It is critical that we get them distributed as soon as possible, particularly over the weekend. Please contact Rob Aufiero at robert@renewmacoalition.org or Michael King at michael@mafamily.org to arrange a pick up. The fight for privacy and safety in Massachusetts is really ramping […]
