Attorneys General are urging Congress to Regulate AI. Gov. Healey is doing the same.

How does Question 6 fund nature without new taxes? It dedicates the existing sales tax on outdoor gear directly to land and water protection, generating as much as $100 million every year. Get the full breakdown at our Nature For All Webinar on Oct 1 at 7 PM! #YesOn6 #MaPoli

Will the gas tax be suspended? I doubt it. What I’m looking for is whether the coverage focuses on the proposals from the gubernatorial candidates or the legislature - which is the branch of government that actually controls the budget. #mapoli

If voters don’t want Democrats who support Trump running against Republicans, Democrats running against token Republicans or uncontested races where one party dominates the landscape, a top-two primary provides the best solution to our flawed primaries. #mapoli

A helpful run-down on the 9 statewide ballot questions!

MA has 9 statewide ballot questions this year.

Be an informed voter!

This November, Massachusetts will see *9* statewide ballot questions, a historic number. But we’ve got you covered. ✅VOTE YES ON 1 to expand the public records law to cover the Governor and the Legislature. We’re the only state in the country that doesn’t do that already. Let the sunlight in. ✅VOTE YES ON 2 to enable public defenders to collectively bargain. Every worker deserves to have a union, and public defenders, who are often overworked and underpaid, should be no exception. ❌VOTE NO ON 3 to prevent private equity billionaires from rigging our election system in their favor. Top-two primaries empower corporate PACs and self-funders, disadvantage grassroots candidates, and turn MAGA voters into election kingmakers. ✅VOTE YES ON 4 to enable voters to register to vote or update their registration on Election Day. No eligible voter should be turned away due to a clerical error, and this reform is one of the most proven ways to increase voter turnout. ❌VOTE NO ON 5 to protect our state’s ability to invest in health care, transportation, and public education. The rich would get millions in tax rebates, while the rest of us suffer from underfunded public services. ⚪VOTE how you want on 6. Question 6 fell shy of our endorsement threshold: our members valued land and water conservation, but were worried about the dedication of existing funds as opposed to new ones. ✅VOTE YES on 7 to enable more starter homes across the Commonwealth. We have a housing crisis, and large lot size requirements mean fewer homes are able to be built. ❌VOTE NO on 8 to protect our state’s cannabis laws. We said NO to the war on drugs back in 2016, and we shouldn’t turn back time and destroy local economies. ✅VOTE YES ON 9 to protect our state’s landmark gun safety law, which cracked down on ghost guns, banned machine gun conversion devices, and strengthened gun violence data collection.

You understand that reactivity and deterrence is inappropriate for other issues, but not for guns. Why the dead angle on this specific issue? Point me to one thing in the bill that "prevents" anything, just one thing. Let's see if it holds up to scrutiny. #mapoli

@brendanws90.bsky.socialSep 24, 2026, 12:03 PM

I'm say it again, as many times as it takes Ruth: this isn't the "NRA's" repeal effort, and ch. 135 doesn't prevent gun violence. It increases carceral responses to already illegal behavior, an approach that every single prohibitionist movement has tried, and it has failed every time. #mapoli

Meh. There are plenty of specious arguments coming from the No campaign, none of which speak to the merits of the ballot question.

Don't be fooled by the "money in politics" argument against Question 3. #mapoli

Looks like the Swampscott Police Department never had a policy for officers regarding access to Lynn’s Flock system in the first place. Abuse is what happens when you give people in power access to surveillance systems with no controls.

#mapoli

Screen shot of an email: RE: Audit records Good afternoon, The Swampscott Police Department does not have a Flock specific policy. Attached is our Automated license plate reader policy. The department owns one ALPR system (cruiser mounted) however it has not functioned in approximately five years. Subsequently, it is not installed on anything currently and is in storage. Regarding your Flock specific information request, under M.G.L. c.4 s.7(26)(f) materials pertaining to on-going and active investigations, it cannot be released. Regards, Lt. Michael J. Frayler Administrative Lieutenant Video/Records Unit Firearms Licensing/Firearms & Taser Instructor/ Armorer Fleet Management Swampscott Police Department 口

The Governor's office estimates that the proposal would reduce the state's Fair Share funding for transportation and education investments by approximately $120 million:
