Our life here on Vinalhaven is about to change in so many ways. From children to seniors, to working men and women, town projects, and our deserving veterans, we are all facing changes that will make our lives harder. Through this website, we are presenting only the facts, and although many of us are deeply passionate about our place and role in the world, we speak here about our livelihoods, the wellbeing of our immediate neighbors, and how our taxes and other living costs may be impacted.
We will do our best to keep the site updated with current information. It changes daily.
We welcome new members! We are not a political party; we are 77 Vinalhaveners who are working to persuade our government that the actions it is pursuing are damaging to our way of life on this island and in this country. Please join us by sending an email notification of your interest to concernedislanders@justthefacts.best
In addition, we are a member of Indivisible (https://indivisible.org/about), an organization of “more than a million members taking regular, iterative, and increasingly complex actions to resist the GOPs agenda, elect local champions, and fight for progressive policies.”
How can you help buffer the impact of what’s happening and perhaps even reverse its course? Visit our Actions page to find ways to participate.
