The Barnstable County Assembly of Delegates has voted down a resolution opposing the Cape Cod sheriff's agreement with the federal government to help enforce immigration law at the county jail.
The resolution was a protest only, since the assembly has no authority over the sheriff. But some supporters thought it might help a bill in the Massachusetts Legislature designed to prevent local and regional law enforcement agencies from enforcing federal immigration laws.
An opportunistic Geoff Diehl took to Twitter on Thursday to prompt U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren, who devoted a large chunk of her public radio appearance bashing successful Republican-led tax reform efforts, to comment on the energy provider Eversource's announcement that the corporate tax rate cut will mean lower rates for customers.
