Public media is part of our everyday lives — it connects us, informs us, educates us, and inspires us. On March 6, NEPM is joining stations and supporters nationwide for #ProtectMyPublicMedia Day to celebrate what makes public media so essential: https://t.co/zKqhHoywwu

Why did this happen? 1. The economy. You can’t eat democracy. 2. Immigration. We’ve seen this around the world. When there are massive influxes of people, residents revolt. 3. Religion. many Latinos are part of a surging evangelical movement. 4. Machismo. Trump’s brand appeals.

It sort of seems like the October Surprise is going to be our military leaders and Trump's own previous administration emerging to issue an endless series of dire warnings about Trump's unfitness, and their personal experiences with him

TY @MassGov Healey for supporting Access to Counsel in your FY25 draft budget! Thanks also to @mikeday4rep, @RepDaveRogers + @SalDiDomenico for their leadership to prevent unjust evictions. #mapoli @MassLawReform #PHIWM
We couldn’t agree more @GlobeAbraham. Adding #AccesstoCounsel to @MassGovernor Healey’s housing bond bill is a no brainer—a proven solution to prevent evictions. @MassLawReform @GlobeOpinion #mapoli

Massachusetts is permitting 2.5 units of housing per 1,000 residents. Some of the worst housing production numbers in the nation & half the national average. We have to recognize our housing production problems, both in the amount of housing we build and what we’re building.

Today, New York @GovKathyHochul signed the New York Clean Slate Act into law, making it the twelfth state to enact legislation that meets The Clean Slate Initiative's policy minimums. As a result, more than 2.3 million people will soon have a #secondchance.

This is one to remember. Big thanks to @MassGovernor Healey and her administration for listening to tenants and other advocates who have been pushing hard for a comprehensive response to the housing crisis. The Affordable Homes Act is an incredible step forward.
