Good morning @repauchincloss.bsky.social and the rest of #masspoli. What are you doing about this right now?

Collusion by Flynn & Murphy; they "missed the deadline" for submission, then tried to barge in anyway. Everything that was submitted on time was discussed and Durkan wasn't having it from them, and good on her for doing so.
Underlying motive? Read the article.

Hey FOIA nerds. We made the educational puppet video you didn't know you needed about how awful Massachusetts is on public records. #foia #masspoli

You're welcome :)

Everywhere you turn, there’s proof of how the powerful manipulate systems to get what they want: EVERYTHING. The elite are greedy & too many “leaders” do their bidding. The world is a mess. Preventing governmental transparency is a sure way to say, “We don’t care about that.” #masspoli #DemLies #USA

@massago.bsky.social @massgovernor.bsky.social When will you address the so called “delivery” fees utility companies charge? @eversource.bsky.social reported profit of $1.69 BILLION for 2025 and those fees are a primary source. They are more than the cost of electricity. #masspoli

Friends in Holden, MA: Please get the word out that folks should come out to our town meeting on Monday, February 23, and vote "YES" to the sensible rezoning plan that puts us in compliance with the MBTA Communities Act. #masspoli #mbtaca

How is this allowed? @massgovernor.bsky.social @massago.bsky.social Eversource is killing our family’s budget. #masspoli

The Massachusetts Senate put out a press release when they set the primary date for 2026. The subtitle: "Bill Sets Optimal Date for Voter Participation".

The optimal date? September 1st.

What an amazing way to say Fuck You to renters.

@massgovernor.bsky.social @massago.bsky.social We need your help. Between the “delivery fees” for electricity and now gas, consumers are struggling. We conserve as much as possible and bills still increase. Help. #MassPoli

Fed up with ‘deceptive’ low energy price offers, Mass. threatens heavy fines on outside energy supplier - The Boston Globe The Massachusetts DPU proposes fining CleanChoice $5.1 million and revoking its license to sell electricity in the state.

While the third-party supplier industry claims its issues are limited to small "bad apples", the DPU is accusing one of the largest suppliers in the Commonwealth of multiple different kinds of fraud. #energy #masspoli

I am so tired of @mayorwu.boston.gov talking about Boston supposedly being the safest city when she will not provide basic traffic enforcement. Pedestrians and cyclists are injured EVERY DAY and she does nothing. @wutrain.bsky.social #bospoli #masspoli

Instead of burning fossil fuels, these systems circulate water underground to deliver clean heating + cooling to entire neighborhoods.

In #Massachusetts, an org called HEET is pioneering this approach. They’re working with #utilities to pilot geothermal #microgrids that can replace aging #gas pipelines.

A reminder that all those so-called progressives supporting @wutrain.bsky.social choose to ignore that Wu knowingly supported a sexual predator, Arroyo, for district attorney and never rescinded that endorsement. @mayorwu.boston.gov is a fraud and “progressives” do not care. #bospoli #masspoli
