One progressive group will take a large amount of money and use it to attack U.S. Representative Richard Neal (D-Springfield).
A group called Fight Corporate Monopolies plans to spend $300,000 to give people in Neal's First Congressional District (which covers all of western Massachusetts) the impression that Neal is beholden to Blackstone Group, using a TV commercial.
Supporters of a proposed abortion expansion bill known as the ROE Act gathered via a Zoom call on Tuesday afternoon to stump for the measure, which has stalled in the Massachusetts Legislature since being filed in January 2019.
Four elected officials spoke. Only two were state legislators.
