=== Question 1 ===
[https://ballotpedia.org/Massachusetts_Question_1,_%22Right_to_Repair_Law%22_Vehicle_Data_Access_Requirement_Initiative_(2020) From Ballotpedia]:
"Question 1 (2020) would require manufacturers that sell motor vehicles equipped with telematics systems to install a standardized open data platform beginning with model year 2022. Vehicle owners could then access telematics system data through a mobile device application and then give consent for independent repair facilities to access that data and send commands to the system for repair, maintenance, and diagnostic testing. Currently, the 2013 "right to repair law" exempts telematics systems from wireless accessibility by vehicle owners and independent repair facilities."
Suggest support.
There are only two ballot questions in 2020 and we already support the Question 2: RCV
=== S.4051 - Lawful Access to Encrypted Data Act ===
[https://www.congress.gov/bill/116th-congress/senate-bill/4051 bill text] - Suggest oppose
=== FCC comment period for the “Censor the Internet” Executive Order ===
The FCC recently opened a comment period on Trump's “Censor the Internet” Executive Order, to gut Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act and allow FCC chairman Ajit Pai to police online free speech. Comments can be posted at [https://www.fcc.gov/ecfs/search/filings?proceedings_name=RM-11862&sort=date_disseminated,DESC Docket RM-11862].
Draft and post statement and post for others to use in their filings?
