There was a big (nerdy!) energy meeting in New England yesterday. On the docket: whether the region needs to keep the LNG terminal in Everett open after a nearby power plant closes next summer.

What if every one of the many small developments/conversions happening all across the city could add an affordable unit? Let’s keep the people of Everett in Everett!
Please write to the Legislative Affairs Committee in support of a favorable recommendation for this item!

And just like that, the Legislative Affairs Committee of the Everett City Council has zero diverse voices but no one cares as the “fight against racism” is highly selective, opportunistic, and politicized around here.

Congrats to our new AG @AndreaForAG and new State Auditor @DianaDiZoglio - fellow @EmergeMass alum!
HUGE MILESTONE: Massachusetts city says NO to animal labs! 🎉
This compassionate action will pave the way for other localities to keep cruel experiments out of their communities.
Congrats to @stephforeverett, Everett city council, & its residents 👏
Say it louder for the people in the back 📢
@GlobeOpinion is endorsing #YESon4 because they know ensuring that all drivers are tested, licensed, and insured is just common sense.
The Animal Testing Ban ordinance was also enrolled last night with the support of the majority of my Council colleagues thanks to the advocacy of multiple residents who emailed and spoke at the Council meeting!

The State of MA really needs to stop using automatic translations for their notices and invest in real humans. People that speak the languages can tell when materials are google translated. Please and thank you. #mapoli

Tonight my proposal for Paid Family Medical Leave for municipal employees co-sponsored by Councilor Smith was voted down. Guess who voted in favor? The women!

Something about the male brain and unconscious biases where male colleagues instantly interpret female colleagues speaking as annoying, too much, or simply tune out. We shouldn’t have to be rushed. We deserve the same opportunity to express ourselves.
