Referendum Question 1 (Action): MASSPIRG is a statewide, student-directed, non-partisan, organization. For over 45 years, we’ve worked to mobilize students on campus to do research, advocacy, education, and service on a variety of issues including environmental protection, public health, youth voter mobilization, and poverty relief efforts. MASSPIRG chapters across the state pool resources and hire a staff of professionals to work with students on issues that concern us as citizens. Do you support the continued existence of the MASSPIRG chapter at UMass Boston funded through a $9 per-student per-semester waivable fee? Any student choosing not to support MASSPIRG may waive the fee.
If you vote Yes: A yes vote on this question will continue the MASSPIRG chapter at UMass Boston, to be funded through a nine dollar ($9.00) per student, per semester, waivable fee that appears on your tuition bill.
If you vote No: A no vote on this question will remove the MASSPIRG chapter at UMass Boston, effective at the end of the 2023-2024 school year.
Yes 192 78.78 percent – PASSED
No: 78 | 21.21 percent
