The same Fitchburg State University student who helped organize August's free speech rally on Boston Common says he's planning to submit another rally application to City Council.
The rally, tentatively scheduled for November 18 and dubbed "Rally for the Republic," was announced on social media by Free Speech Boston, the same group that hosted the August 19 "Free Speech Rally" that drew an estimated 40,000 protesters and resulted in dozens of arrests.
BOSTON — Governor Charlie Baker signaled on Tuesday his opposition to "elements" of a criminal justice reform bill touted by Massachusetts Senate members, including a potential revision of statutory rape and age-of-consent laws.
Asked during a press conference whether the proposal, drafted by state Senator William Brownsberger (D-Belmont) and which would enact a series of sexual consent age changes, Baker responded by saying he's concerned by that and other aspects of the Senate's bill.
