Today, the @MA_Senate adjourned in memory of Mary Margaret Moore of #SalemMA. A long-time advocate, Mary Margaret fought for civil & disability rights for all & was a staunch champion of independent living. She will be dearly missed. #NorthShoreMA #MAPoli

Y'all are shocked that @maura_healey is nothing but show with no substance?
