Grateful to Dr. Frank & our evidence-based partners @ChildrensHW for being crystal clear: "Congress & the Biden administration must unequivocally oppose work requirements & arbitrary time limits, which jeopardize the health of families & children across the nation" @MassLawReform

This is not just a Brookline Public Housing issue. It’s a statewide public housing problem. MA owns 43,000 state-supported public housing units and more pics like this can be found all over the state. Legislators and the governor need to stop underfunding public housing. #mapoli

Harvard study we needed $115 million IN 2005 (worth $180 million now)! C’mon legislature—Massachusetts is better than this.

Our thoughts on today's State budget released.

We MUST continue pushing our legislators to allocate $184 million to public housing. Everyone deserves a safe, decent home. #mapoli

[American Academy of Pediatrics @AmerAcadPeds]

AAP, joined by other leading medical groups, sent a letter today to @POTUS and @Secmayorkas raising concerns about the reinstatement of immigrant family detention. No amount of detention is safe for children. Read the letter: https://t.co/1AX2Zyiy1q

Many states have made use of the #EITC to stimulate the economy & deliver relief to working families. MA should use $ to target tax relief to families w low & mod incomes says @ChildrensHW #mapoli @RepMichlewitz @SenRodrigues @RonMariano @KarenSpilka
