While there’s still work left to #FixTheT, I couldn’t be more proud of the work our MH coalition put in to save the Mission Hill Streetcar!!! Today was the first time that the @MBTA has ever recognized this service as vital. Thank you to everyone who fought hard to protect it!!!

Polls show the vast majority of people in Massachusetts don’t know who either of them are
#Breaking: The campaign for #GOP Massachusetts gubernatorial candidate @MikeMinogueABMD tells me that Minogue has earned the endorsement of former #Republican candidate for governor @MikeKennealy. The two are set to make the announcement official at Minogue’s Burlington headquarters at 3:30pm today. Kennealy’s endorsement comes after he just missed qualifying for the ballot by failing to reach the 15% threshold of delegate votes at the @massgop Convention, where Minogue won the party endorsement in a landslide victory with 70.4% of the vote. #Kennealy #Minogue #Republicans #Massachusetts #mapoli

You are the last person who can point out failures.
We have to offer a new vision for the State. Pointing out failures isn’t enough. wwlp.com/news/massachusetts/…

Very very bad look for GOP. This is not hard: Organization 101. The contested races should have been up front for exactly this reason—just in case. As delegates leave real possibility that Gov vote numbers are total BS / vastly different than they would have been at 2 pm.

Your state would be West Virginia if your residents didn’t have career opportunities in Massachusetts. The only thing that’s free about you is your freeloading.
New Hampshire is a beacon of freedom and opportunity because we've held the line against an income tax. A constitutional amendment to make it permanent ensures our state won't go the way of Massachusetts. No income tax — not now, not ever!

Six years ago, in the early morning hours of March 27th, NYCT Train Operator Garrett Goble was operating the 0213 ‘2’ train from Flatbush Ave. bound for 241st St. in The Bronx. Just a week earlier a stay at home order was issued in New York State, as the global pandemic tore through the city and across the world. Despite the fear gripping his hometown and the unseen danger lurking at every turn, T/O Goble showed up for work that night. He picked up a job on the midnight ‘2’ train, one of the toughest runs in the subway system— a line known to RTO crews as “The Beast”. Goble, a six year employee of Transit, was approximately one hour into the overnight journey when a fire set by an arsonist erupted in the second car of his train. By the time it pulled into the Central Park North—110th St. station, the 0213 out of Flatbush was engulfed in flames. Acting quickly, decisively, and with the utmost courage, Goble along with his conductor evacuated all passengers from the burning train to safety. Tragically, Goble lost his life during his heroic final acts. He was only 36 years old. Goble was a beloved son, husband, and father of two young boys. He was a gentleman, a hard worker, and a consummate professional who is celebrated by his brothers and sisters throughout NYC Transit and TWU Local 100. Garrett Goble’s dedication and bravery exemplifies the highest ideals of our profession. We remember his sacrifice today, and honor his memory forever. Garrett M.

A Massachusetts student would know that there is an “s” at the end of our state’s name.

I will opt in for the Federal Scholarship Tax Credit as Governor. This will transform education by giving parents the choice on where they send their kids to school.

As mayor, I issued marriage licenses to same-sex couples in San Francisco. The polls were against us. Republicans were attacking us. Even many in my own party said it was too soon. Have the courage to lead.

HUGE NEWS: @Gillette is choosing South Boston as the home of their new Global HQ and Innovation Center. Gillette has been part of the Massachusetts story for more than a century — and with this investment, we’ll stay a hub for advanced manufacturing for generations to come.

Thank you Congresswoman. I feel good about what I said to you last week, and here’s what I’ll say today: Hillary was dumbfounded by the conspiracy theories you seemed to mash together. Then she was appalled by your inability to find a coherent line of inquiry. Then she was pissed because you interrupted her while she was literally talking about people murdered in a terrorist attack in response to a question you asked. And while you’re throwing around words like “lie” and “cover up,” only one of us was declared the subject of an ethics investigation in the last hour. Have a terrific day.

Of course Boebert snapped a photo. That's the closest she's ever been to someone actually qualified to be the fuckin' President and whatnot.

Marcelo has been in the U.S. since he was 6 years old. Zero criminal record. You're not making anyone safer by targeting him. You're just proving how far you'll go to terrorize young people trying to build a future in this country. -SWM
Replying to @DHSgov
.@RepMoulton plans to bring illegal alien Marcelo Gomes DaSilva. Gomes DaSilva is an illegal alien who has no right to be in our nation. We are committed to enforcing the law and fighting for the arrest, detention, and removal of aliens like him.

What was that? @maura_healey was right!
I’m pleased to announce that the Department of Homeland Security will not move forward with the proposed ICE facility in Merrimack. During my trip to Washington last week, I had productive discussions with Secretary Kristi Noem. I thank her for hearing the concerns of the Town of Merrimack and for the continued cooperation between DHS and New Hampshire law enforcement to secure our northern border, keep dangerous criminals off our streets, and ensure our communities are safe.
