The Advocacy Fund's 2021 City of Boston Endorsements

Local leaders play an enormous role in our work to advance reproductive freedom, especially in addressing persistent health disparities, improving equitable access to care and opportunities, and dismantling the barriers we face at every intersection of our lives.

That's why the Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts is proud to endorse the following candidates for Boston City Council. Each of these candidates understand that as long as people are denied bodily autonomy and the ability to decide for themselves how to live and build their futures, true reproductive freedom will remain out of reach.

PPAF is proud to support the Yes on 1 ballot campaign.

Question 1 would amend the city of Boston's charter to make Boston’s budget process more transparent, accountable and democratic.

If passed, this ballot measure would both give the Boston City Council the power to amend and improve the mayor's budget and create an independent office that would allow Boston residents to propose and vote on parts of the city budget.
