March 30, 2010 By David

Cahill Runs Right

January 6, 2010 By bostonlawyer

As a Democrat likely supporting Charlie Baker, I may be too quick to see rainbows in what could arguably be a rain cloud.  However, as insignificant as these picks generally are, Loscocco gives Baker more room to pick up disillusioned … [Read more...]

A huge pleasure to join @RepDylan as he launched the #Massachusetts Friends of UK Legislative Caucus at the home of the @FCDOPeterAbbott. It was wonderful to talk about how we can collaborate to benefit constituents and deepen long-standing ties! #mapoli

If you're familiar with #mapoli I have questions for you!

My intern is applying for an internship there - obvs I'm thrilled. 😊 What should she know about how the MA legislature is staffed? What other essential knowledge would you pass along?

It's April in #mapoli which means budget season is in full swing. The House will soon pitch a tax relief proposal alongside their 2024 fiscal plan.
