Summary
Worcester pride. Fee for Worcester pride is $100/table (10x10 space). Jamie created signup form. At least one person interested. Festival goes from 3p - 8p, and setup starts at 11:30a. Gives us a month to encourage people to join us. Unanimous vote in favor of spending the $100 to register.
Anarchist Bookfair. OCt 19th and 20th. Steve adn Jamie available that weekend. Unanimous vote in favor of attending.
USPP issues. Doing some re-drafting to the USPP position on Artifical Intelligence, but final version not ready yet.
KOSA (Kids Online Safety Act) passed Senate by a margin. Markey and Warren supported. Bill appears to be DOA in the house (perhaps because they house is interested, or perhaps because the house would prefer something worse).
