Can we please get people stimulus checks and mortgage relief and rent forgiveness and small business support and free testing and hazard pay and healthcare for the uninsured (& underinsured) in the middle of a pandemic or is that too socialist too?
#16andRecovering what a great thing Ms. Lipinski and her staff are doing for these students. The way we ‘treat’ people needs to change. Hats off to the staff, good luck to the students and families.

Jacob Blake’s dad at the March on Washington told me:
“They didn't treat my son like a human. They treated my son like an animal. He was shooting my son while he was pulling my son's shirt to get him closer to him. What sense does that make?”

@MBTA People will find other ways they will also work closer to home when poss. This will also effective the other business revenue when people don’t travel far from home or they must decide
bt a Charlie card or spending in the economy

@MBTA This is an attack on essential workers & working class who are already struggling. Raising fares /fare hikes will cause ridership to decline and defeat the purpose of revenue.
thinking abt how many services like transit, housing, education, healthcare could be totally amazing if we just cut police budgets by a lil
instead of hiking transit fare prices marty n council could just cut the BPD budget and put more money for the mbta no?
It’s a miracle that that #JacobBlake is alive. We are so grateful for his life.
But what he experienced and what his children experienced. Disgusting and disturbing.

Voting is an act of resistance. If our votes didn't matter they wouldn't work so hard to silence us. By the way, this is unconstitutional and against the law.
It's absolutely unacceptable that 467 billionaires increased their wealth by $731 billion during the pandemic, while 30 million Americans lost their jobs and now face hunger and eviction. Now, more than ever, we need an economy that works for all, not the 1%. The Senate must act.
