Happy Election Day Eve!!

Hi John, TUESDAY IS ELECTION DAY! We have come so far as a campaign and are so close to closing the deal and electing Shannon as the next Attorney General. But, we aren’t done. The latest polling has the race within the margin of error, with over 30 percent of voters undecided. We expect ma…

I’m so proud of how far we’ve come

John, Two months ago, my team and I released our first TV ad. Two weeks ago, polling was released showing that this race is in a dead heat. And two days from now, people across Massachusetts will cast their vote for Attorney General. …

The progressive champion that Massachusetts needs

John, I’ve endorsed Shannon Liss-Riordan because she’s the progressive champion Massachusetts needs as our next Attorney General. She’s ready to fight for working-class families in the Commonwealth, not on the side of billionaires and corporations — and tough women get it done, John. But first, w…

Housing is a human right

John, Everyday the reality is more clear — Massachusetts is in the middle of an affordable housing crisis. For far too long, our housing courts have operated as eviction mills, with the disparity in power and resources between landlords and tenants on full display with disastrous consequences. …
