.@MassGovernor’s calling the 10-town gas ban provision exclusionary zoning is misleading. #MAClimateBill will make #fossilfuel free buildings accessible to low- and moderate-income households. We need #ClimateResilientHousing. #mapoli

Massachusetts did the right thing long ago & divested in tobacco stocks. Can’t imagine @FindMassMoney wants their sponsored content on @BostonGlobe website next to that of Big Tobacco company Philip Morris. Shame on @BostonGlobe for profiting off the health of kids. #mapoli
