A new grassroots organization is meeting to discuss many issues affecting the Greater Portsmouth community. This group is calling itself “The Portsmouth Progressives” and its purpose is to insure that Portsmouth becomes a model community for its citizens, the region, the state and the nation.

The need for community-wide support for the local community radio station, WCSA/106.1 is encouraged to insure that local news and an alternative source of news programming was accessible along with the ability for local citizens to create their own programming. We are also discussing how to create a Public Access TV channel along with the continuation of the current Government Access TV.

Healthcare, the environment, the separation of church and state, the War as well as current legislative issues are also discussed. All issues pertain to Portsmouth and how each impacted this area directly.
