Elect a remarkable leader

September 16, 2008 By Pablo 7 Comments

Ken Donnelly has heart.  I offer this quote from Bay Windows, which I think is a real measure of the man I have come to know in the past few months.  "He noted that on his office wall there are portraits of Martin Luther King, … [Read more...]

What’s so progressive about Ken Donnelly?

August 18, 2008 By Trickle up 9 Comments

I was, and in a very different way still am, a supporter of Jim Marzilli (though I do think he should resign his seat.) No question that he was a progressive legislator. What has happened is terribly sad on many levels. Why did Ken run … [Read more...]

What do eggs, lotion, and Slurpees have in common?

All of them have been deemed “dangerous weapons” in courts that made young people ineligible for judicial diversion to community supervision instead of incarceration.

12 senators wanted to keep it that way. #mapoli

Thank you to the 32 senators who voted to expand opportunities for judicial diversion to community supervision instead of incarceration for youth!

Incarceration is not designed for rehabilitation and cannot offer an outcome it's not designed for. #mapoli

More proof that my state representative hates women and LGBTQ+ individuals -- and apparently healthcare providers, too. He needs to go.

Everyone in the district must vote for Emmanuel Dockter for State Representative in November.

Look who voted no on H.4930, a new #ReproductiveRights bill. Shame on DeCoste for voting no on this vital piece of legislation.

We shouldn’t be surprised, though, as he has a history of voting against the fundamental rights of women and LGBTQ+ individuals.

At every level of government, we must have intelligent, thoughtful representation. We have a better chance of achieving this if we have two, truly viable parties, which would allow for the actual challenge & contrast of ideas. #mapoli

According to the @PioneerBoston, #Massachusetts lost over 20,000 residents in 2020. Maybe a positive spin can be put on this, but the reality still must be acknowledged. The cost of living & the lack of political choice are driving people from the state. We need change. #mapoli
