The next meeting of the Waltham Democratic City Committee will be held this Thursday, May 9, 2013 at 7:00PM in the Auditorium at
Government Center, 119 School Street (Corner of School & Lexington Streets), Waltham. All Waltham Democrats are welcomed to attend.
Gabe Frumkin from the Ed Markey campaign will be present to help us get organized for the final push in this important campaign. If you’ve seen the recent polls you know that this is a much tighter race than anyone would have imagined. We don’t want Gabriel Gomez to become the next Scott Brown. Well, we do. It’s just that we want him to be the Scott Brow that ran against Elizabeth Warren, not the other Scott Brown. To make that happen, we need everyone in the fight.
See you Thursday!!!

At the regular monthly meeting of the Waltham Democratic City Committee held on Thursday, June 14th, 2012, in the Waltham Government Center Auditorium, members listened to special guest speaker
State Senator Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton) talk about efforts to pass a Constitutional Amendment overturning the United States Supreme Court's ruling in the "Citizens United" case. Senator Eldridge is one of
the lead sponsors of Senate Bill 772, “A Resolution Restoring Free Speech.” This resolution asks the Congress of the United States to send to the states a constitutional amendment that would reserve the right of
free speech to citizens, not corporations. After Senator Eldridge made his presentation and fielded a number of questions, a resolution supporting Senate Bill 772 was adopted by a unanimous vote of the committee.
