Leadership in a time of crisis and chaos

 

In this month's newsletter, SHDTC member Jim Bosman writes about the shocking October 7 attacks against Israel. The contrast between the response of the Biden administration and Republican leaders, including 'the former guy,' is notable. Meanwhile, as Republicans continue to struggle to select a new Speaker to manage the proceedings of the House after the October 3 ouster of Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the clock keeps ticking.

On Tuesday, March 5, 2024 we'll begin next year's election calendar with the Massachusetts Presidential Primary Election and our annual South Hadley Town Election, which will also be held on that date, five weeks earlier than usual. For those considering a run for Town-wide office or Town Meeting, nomination papers will be available from the Town Clerk just six weeks from now, beginning on Monday, December 4, 2023. Whether it's local or national, our votes and the candidates we choose make a difference.
