Warren, Sanders to appear together at Boston rally Friday March 31

MARCH 27, 2017

Massachusetts Senator Elizabeth Warren will join Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders for a political rally in Boston that will join the nation’s leading political progressives under one roof.

The rally, sponsored by Sanders’ political non-profit Our Revolution and Raise Up Massachusetts, will take place at 7:30 p.m. Friday at the Orpheum Theater in Downtown Crossing.


The rally will end an active day in the area for Sanders. Earlier in the day he will give a speech and take questions at the Edward M. Kennedy Institute for the U.S. Senate in Dorchester. Later, he will attend a book signing at MIT.

Sanders and Warren have worked closely alongside each other in the Senate, but many of his supporters were disappointed that she never endorsed his presidential campaign in 2016.

Elizabeth is up for re-election in 2018 and we need to make sure she keeps her seat. We know Bernie's seat is safe, there's no way anyone will ever be able to convince Vermonters to turn on the most popular senator in the country. One would have to be a fool to think that's even possible.

They have the right idea, keep talking to the people, town halls, rallies, whatever it takes to get our message out there.

Thank you Senators Sanders and Warren!

Cheers to two progressive fighters who aren't afraid to get LOUD !
