CEO of the Mass. Municipal Association; proud husband & dad; inspired by great public leaders; love public policy, reading and hiking. Tweets are my own.
When your amazing daughter marries a wonderful partner, the joy you feel is beyond description! Wishing Calley and Rob a lifetime of happiness! #MoWood2022
Covid risk a problem too: "You're not getting paid much at all to come and work an extremely long day. ...it's just harder and harder to find people, esp. if the folks who have been doing it, who are mostly retired, are more hesitant."—@massmunicipal's @GeoffBeckwith to @GBHNews
Could two followers please copy and re-post this tweet? I'm trying to demonstrate that someone is always there, especially at this time of year. Call 800-273-8255 (National Suicide Prevention Helpline US). Just two. Any two. Copy, not retweet. Let’s all look out for each other.

"If we are not able to partner with federal government, we are going to cont. to see the disintegration of our #infrastructure. We haven’t been able to do anything but put a bandaid, but we need upgrades." Maura Carroll, executive director of @VLCTAdvocacy#NLCCCC#RebuildWithUs
"We have environmental infrastructure, we have roads, we have resiliency issues to deal with. Without support from the federal government, we will move backward instead of moving forward, not just in Massachusetts but in our nation." - @GeoffBeckwith#RebuildWithUs#NLCCCC
