Our work must include states that are passed over as “too red.” The political position we’re in is not permanent, and we have the power to make change if we fight for it.
NEW: The Salem mayor + the Salem School Committee denounced “in the strongest terms possible” comments Congressman Seth Moulton made about transgender athletes, saying that “neither fear nor political whim will shake our commitment to [students].”

In #SalemMA we love our neighbors, no matter where you’ve come from, how long you’ve lived here, who you love, or how you identify yourself.
Our values & our commitment to one another- to be a beacon, and a place that works for & welcomes all -is unwavering, no matter the tides.
Congratulations to our US Senator, @ewarren!
You’ve been a fighter & a strong voice for Massachusetts’ cities & our working families, including those here in #SalemMA. So excited to continue working with you for a better future for our country, our Commonwealth, & our community!
Halloween in #SalemMA is first and foremost a public safety operation.
Help by leaving weapons at home - even as part of your costume - report issues to police (911 for emergencies, 979-744-1212 for non-emergencies, look for the blue tents if downtown), & stay respectful of all.
Very proud of our schools, kids, and staff! And I'm grateful for the dedication and guidance of our district leadership teams. Can't say it better than @SzrikeSPS and @dspangallo !

This morning we had a hoax call of a shooter at Salem High School. While we believed it to be a hoax from the moment it was received, we deployed officers who will remain until students have left. These calls fit a pattern throughout the state and country.
Terrific piece by @boston25 on the amazing work by the by the Collins Middle School staff and our partners at @WPSInstitute on the significant drop in absenteeism. More work to be done, but huge kudos: https://t.co/pbqP64iday

So, I still might get sick. 🤷🏻♀️ but the chance that I will need additional medical help is low. Plus, the extra antibodies floating around in my blood for a few weeks/months *might* help me avoid getting sick all together!

Got my updated SARS-CoV-2 vaccine today! 💪🏻
I decided to get mine right away because I want all the protection I can from getting sick during fall semester. My fall semester is shorter than spring and if I get sick it really messes up my schedule! 😆

Vaccines can’t entirely prevent infection, but they can reduce the risk that you get infected. Really they work by preventing serious disease. Serious = requiring hospitalization or more medical interventions.
