My entire professional career has been centered around defending the human and economic rights of people in local communities.

The clock, these days, is ticking backwards. Anyone watching what's happening in Washington, D.C. is right to be horrified. To see children wrenched from their parents, attacks on the LGBTQ community, health care being destroyed, a woman's right to choose threatened, investments in public education cut, policies that address drastic climate change rejected, spending for seniors reduced. To see all this--and more--is scandalous.

Here in the Commonwealth, the Massachusetts Legislature can and must defend against these attacks.
