MAAPL invites you to join us for our victory rally, speakout and press conference at the State House on Beacon Hill in Boston to celebrate the defeat of S1987!
Date/Time: 12:30 pm on Wednesday, August 13, 2014
Location: State House steps if weather is dry–Rm. 437 if rain as predicted.
View and print our flyer for this event (Word file).
Come out to celebrate with us, and hear stories of homeowners whose efforts to regain their homes after illegal foreclosure would have been in vain if S1987 had passed–it takes longer than one year to win these cases!
Want to know more about why we’re celebrating? The State House News has published a great article on the fight to defeat S1987–you can read it here.
