Please join us this Thursday 7:30 pm for a virtual meet & greet with Robbie Goldstein, candidate for Congress in Massachusetts’ 8th district. Robbie is an infectious disease specialist, a primary care physician at MGH, and a bold leader whose background & policy positions are uniquely suited to the challenges facing us today:
“AS A PHYSICIAN IN BOSTON, A CITY WITH SOME OF THE BEST HOSPITALS IN THE WORLD, I SEE PATIENTS EVERY DAY WHO STRUGGLE TO GET THE CARE THEY NEED. TOO MANY OF MY PATIENTS HAVE TO MAKE IMPOSSIBLE CHOICES: BETWEEN TAKING THEIR PRESCRIPTION DRUGS OR PUTTING FOOD ON THE TABLE; BETWEEN GETTING A FULL DAY’S PAY OR COMING IN FOR THE MEDICAL APPOINTMENT THEY NEED.
I HAVE SEEN THE WAYS WHO YOU ARE AND WHERE YOU LIVE IMPACT YOUR HEALTH.
TODAY, POLITICIANS SPEND A LOT OF TIME FOCUSING ON PAYING FOR MEDICINE AND MEDICAL INTERVENTION, AND NOWHERE NEAR ENOUGH TIME ON THE SOCIAL DETERMINANTS OF HEALTH — KEEPING OUR NEIGHBORHOODS SAFE FROM GUN VIOLENCE, REDUCING POLLUTION, AND ENSURING EVERY FAMILY HAS A STABLE HOME AND EVERY WORKER EARNS A LIVING WAGE.
IT’S TIME TO THINK BIGGER AND DO BETTER FOR OUR COMMUNITIES.”
You can learn more about Robbie at: https://www.robbieforchange.com/The 8th district includes the Boston neighborhoods of the North End, West End, Beacon Hill, Downtown, South Boston, and parts of Dorchester, Jamaica Plain, Roslindale, and West Roxbury; before traveling south through parts of Bristol, Norfolk, and Plymouth Counties. If you have friends from other neighborhoods who might be interested, please share the invitation with them too! We hope you can join us!To receive connection info for this event, you must RSVP.

Met Robbie tonight for the first time at the virtual Ward 5 Democratic Committee Meeting. He was extremely impressive. I am very involved in Ward 5, their current Treasurer, and would be interested in help out with the campaign.
