NEW— Rep. Ayanna Pressley's push to extend Haitian TPS for three years has cleared a key House vote. The measure — if successful — would extend TPS protections for Haitians through April 2029.

“My mom used to have a saying. 'Joey as long as you’re alive, you have an obligation to strive and you're not dead until you see the face of God.' Whatever my legacy may be I hope it be said that I never stopped striving for the cause of democracy."- President Joe Biden

Wonderful to be @USSConstMuseum Leadership Forum yesterday featuring @NCAA Pres & former Gov @CharlieBakerMA speaking with @MeetBostonUSA Pres/CEO Martha Sheridan. Thoughtful insights on building strong teams-active listening, problem-solving and a culture that values both.

I asked Doc Rivers about why he’s been so willing to speak out on social issues, knowing that there are consequences:

“I just think when things are morally wrong, it shouldn't be me; it should be everybody in this room. It should be everybody if you feel strongly about it. What we see on the streets right now, you cannot morally feel good about that. No American can, and that's why I speak out. And I do tell our guys there are consequences. You know, there was an Arthur Ashe, there was a Muhammad Ali, there was a Howard Cosell. They all spoke out, and some paid consequences for it. That's just part it.”

Editorial— In a remarkable decision this week, US District Court Judge Anna Reyes blasted away at the Trump regime’s moral corruption and the white supremacist impulses that animate his attempt to purge the country of Black and brown people.

NEW— Mayor Michelle Wu has just issued an executive order that offers clear guidance on how city government intends to respond to any future Minnesota-style "surge" of federal immigration agents into Boston.

Governor:
When they surge into Mass and commit atrocities on our streets— and seek to cover it up — will you and our other constitutional officers have a team in place to ID, detain, arrest and charge, and prosecute the offending agents? It's essential that we do.
