Observers:

Summary

• Airport protest. Suggest having signs for several whistleblowers. Bring press release, flyers, camera. No costumes. We'll do this on President's day. Mon, Feb 17th. (Motion passes, 4-0)
• Arisia. Planning to do cryptoparties and campaign training. Probable attendees: jokeefe, srevilak, Joe
• Ageis will try to find spaces to do Feb. campaign training in Western MA
• 1/11 - Demand Carmen Ortiz's Job.
• 1/18 Boston Common Smoke Out/Vape Up! protest. Protests on 3rd Saturday of each month. General opinion: Boston's no-smoking/vaping in parks law is a dumb law that will be selectively enforced, and a slap against Masscan. Motion to support protest passes, 6-0.
• Valentine's day fundraiser. Democracy center is not available on Feb 14th. We propose March 1st instead (at the Democracy center). 5pm to midnight booking; this includes time for setup and teardown.
• 1/5 Campaign training. Lucia and Jamie bringing cameras. Lucia bringing tripod.
