I'm a firm believer in data collection. I said it about #HandFreeBill b4 @RepChynahTyler sold us out to nativist House/Baker. Then, yrs later, SJC agreed bill was useless w/o data collection. As for a city race commission—to do what? Tell us Boston is racist?!🙄🤦🏾‍♂️#BOSpoli #MApoli

Enjoyed chatting this morning with Bill Newman on @WHMP about the LG’s race & issues impacting Western MA. We can’t be a thriving Commonwealth without vibrant cities & towns. I’m excited to leverage strong municipal experience to assist underserved communities across MA. #mapoli
