Warrant Article 20 is divisive and bad for Brookline. It failed in the spring and it isn't going to change policy now either.
To: [Select a precinct above]
Subject: Please table Warrant Article 20
Message: Dear Town Meeting Members,
As a Brookline voter in your precinct, I'm writing to urge you to table Warrant Article 20.
As was the case in the spring, I believe that debating a contentious geopolitical topic centered far away from Brookline increases animosity, stress, and division within our community and in our public schools.
This repeated process of public hearings has continued to generate pain and anguish for the people who show up to speak.
The petitioners did not attend their own hearing before the Advisory Committee's ad hoc subcommittee on November 7 and over 140 Town Meeting Members have already pledged to table: it is clear that foreign policy does not belong at Town Meeting.
Thank you for your dedicated service to our precinct!
