The largest teachers union in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts didn't want school on Monday.
The Massachusetts Teachers Association wanted to keep public schools closed on Monday, January 3 so that staff members could come in and get tested against coronavirus. However, the Massachusetts Department of Elementary and Secondary Education didn't cancel school, as the union wanted.
If Massachusetts attorney general Maura Healey runs for governor as widely expected, the Democrat will have one major advantage over other candidates in the race: money.
While Healey hasn't announced whether or not she'll run, she has a lot of money in her campaign account. As of November 30, 2021, she had $3,303,719.07 in it, according to the Massachusetts Office of Campaign and Political Finance. She can use it to run for governor or to run for re-election as attorney general.
