"Judaism has never been solely a religion to me. It’s a people, a culture, and a religion, kind of like a state of being. It helps me locate myself in the world."

Over 1800 energized and raucous GBIO members and allies gathered on May 12th at Trinity Church on Copley Square for GBIO’s Mass Assembly and Action, including 20 members of Workmen’s Circle. Those assembled made up a very diverse group of people spanning the range of racial, class and geographic differences that make up Greater Boston, and were there to speak truth to power and build working relationships with them.
Governor Baker, Boston Mayor Walsh, Mass Speaker of the House DeLeo, and Attorney General Healy were there to respond to GBIO’s action agenda for the next few years centering on Health Care Reform, Gun Violence, Public School Reform, Gentrification, Affordable Housing and Criminal Justice Reform.
By the end of the evening GBIO had received the following commitments:
Governor Baker-
Boston Mayor Walsh-
Attorney General Healy-
Speaker of the House DeLeo-
