I support trans rights, yet I can’t help notice the growing and historically new and weird trend of protesting at your statehouse for because of what other state legislatures are doing, things that your legislature is firmly on record being against. #mapoli

SenRobynKennedy @senrobynkennedy

The message is simple: Protect Trans Kids.

We must ensure that our kids feel safe and protected as they pursue a life free of discrimination and danger because of who they are.

Let me just say loud and clear - to transit twitter, to the governor, to the legislature, and everyone else in #mapoli: Transit Matters has been wrong for years in their predictions of what is and is not possible at MBTA.

TransitMatters @transitmatters

"Let me just say loud & clear—to him, to the governor, to the legislature—if [Phil Eng] only has the resources that he has today, he will fail because they're not enough."

Thank you @SenJohnVelis for inviting me to speak with Housing Authorities in your district! #mapoli #bospoli

Senator John Velis @SenJohnVelis

Grateful to my friend and @MA_Senate Housing Chair, @LydiaMEdwards, for taking the time today to meet with Housing Authorities in my district.

We had a productive conversation on how we can improve CHAMP (MA Common Housing Application) and support our Public Housing Authorities.
