Mass Alliance > About Us > Mission

Mass Alliance is a 501c4 coalition of advocacy organizations and unions, working together to build a progressive Massachusetts by developing progressive leaders and electing them to local office.  Together, Mass Alliance and its members are building a movement of shared values. This cooperation enhances our ability to build progressive power.

  • We work with our endorsed candidates to run successful grassroots campaigns and to communicate effectively about their progressive values.
  • We mobilize and coordinate the electoral programs of member organizations in support of our endorsed candidates, by sharing technology and building a progressive voter file that will track all of our outreach efforts and help us identify and activate progressive leaders at all levels.
  • We train local progressive leaders in how to run for elected office, how to manage campaigns, and how to co-govern with progressive organizations.

By working together, the members of Mass Alliance create a community of shared values. Our cooperation enhances our ability to build progressive power around our priority issues. 

Mass Alliance provides leadership for the progressive community. 

By developing relationships among the broadest spectrum of progressive interests, Mass Alliance builds unity around progressive policy and candidates for state office. This collaboration enables us to make strategic decisions about where our resources will have the most impact toward winning a progressive Massachusetts. 

Mass Alliance cultivates and empowers progressive leaders. 

Our leadership development programs build the team that will advocate for and implement progressive policy. We train activists to be leaders of grassroots campaigns. We work with local progressive champions to become candidates and continue to support their development and advancement when they become elected officials. 

Mass Alliance makes the difference between progressives winning or losing their elections. 

We endorse candidates for the State House who support all the priorities of the coalition members, and we prioritize races where we can make the most difference. Working with the Mass Alliance PAC, we provide support for progressive candidates and their campaigns. Together, we:

  • Work with endorsed candidates to help them run successful grassroots campaigns and communicate effectively about progressive values.
  • Mobilize and coordinate the electoral programs of member organizations in support of our endorsed candidates.
