Protecting Our Privacy via The Location Shield Act Did you know that cell phone location data is actively being collected and sold? Our State Legislature is considering a bill to ban the sale of cell phone location data for anyone located in Massachusetts. This bill (H.357/S.148), a.k.a. the Location Shield Actwill prevent unscrupulous actors from being able to purchase and use the cell phone location data of others to determine, for example, if someone visited a facility that provides abortions, specific places of worship, or gathering spots popular with the LGBTQ+ community while in our state. You can read JALSA's testimony in support of this legislation. Contact your state legislators and encourage them to Support the Location Shield Act. The extension deadline for this bill is July 31.

This is a great opportunity to show our hospitality and support a worthy cause. Responsibilities will be to hand out snacks and drinks, check-in riders' on a list, and point them to the restrooms. The money raised by the riders goes to support the Tikvah Program at Camp Ramah which provides an inclusive summer camp experience for children with disabilities. You don’t have to be a rider. You don’t have to be a member of the men’s club. You don’t have to be a man. You do have to be willing to make a difference.
Please get in touch with David Kaplan or call 617-538-3166 to volunteer or if you have questions.
