Mass GOP candidate for Congress Dean Tran is an alleged criminal for burglary and gun theft. Innocent until convicted.

Is Mass. Senator Ryan Fattman a climate change denier? He really had no business advocating for Boston Patrolmen against police reform #MaPoli

Progressive Mass @ProgressiveMass

The Senate voted 38 to 2 to pass the conferenced version of the climate bill.

Only Fattman and Tran voted no.

Good news, @RepAuchincloss @JakeAuch! This ban on crypto-owning govt *employees* from working on crypto regs does not affect you, a crypto investor (https://twitter.com/TedNesi/status/1478056616561979396), from working w/ GOP to undermine crypto oversight (https://twitter.com/MatHelman/status/1506103024393064454).
