Welcome to Massachusetts, college students! We're wicked excited you're here. Couple things you should know: 1. We take our sports seriously. 2. No one really calls it Beantown. 3. Regular just means cream and sugar.

This morning, I'll be standing in solidarity with UNITE HERE Local 26 workers striking for fair wages and the contract they deserve. Because in Massachusetts, Labor Day isn’t a day we take off – it's a day we take action.

Workers cheated out of fair pay, protections and benefits they deserve aren't the only ones who suffer – so do taxpayers and businesses playing by the rules.   I'm re-launching the Council on the Underground Economy to crack down on employer fraud and employee misclassification.

Whether you ride the T, the bus, the MBTA Commuter Rail, the ferries, or the RIDE, if your income qualifies, you'll soon be able to take the MBTA for half the price or less. If you're a daily rider, that means $720 back in your pocket every year. To apply, visit mbta.com/income-eligible.

Just days into the new school year, and already more lives lost to another senseless, preventable act of gun violence. This is not normal. Our students and educators deserve to be safe in the classroom.

Ralph de la Torre lived in luxury at the expense of workers and patients at Steward hospitals. His refusal to testify before the Senate is shameful, but it’s not shocking. The people of Massachusetts deserve answers. He must be held accountable.

Federal grants helped keep the child care sector afloat during COVID, but parents and providers were struggling long before the pandemic began. Massachusetts is the only state to fully sustain those grants with state funds — supporting over 250K children and adding 10K more

Jason relies on the T to get to work, to the store, to medical appointments and to bring his daughter to school. Now, he can apply to ride for half the price through the first ever income-eligible reduced fare program at the MBTA.

The Auschwitz Exhibition lifts up the stories of victims and survivors, calling attention to the tragic reality of the Holocaust. I was grateful for the opportunity to tour the exhibit today. Faced with rising antisemitism, we have a collective responsibility to reflect on this
