Just *16* out of 112 Massachusetts municipal police departments actually conducted required annual inspections of local gun stores.
The natural question: What is AG/governor-elect Maura Healey doing about it? So far, repeatedly declining the Globe's interview requests. #mapoli

Marjorie Taylor Greene’s January 6th comments at last night’s New York Young Republican Club Gala:
“I got to tell you something, if Steve Bannon and I had organized that, we would have won. Not to mention, it would’ve been armed.”

Washington D.C. is introducing free bus fares to residents. Analysts say D.C.’s free fare system offers a good test case on how public transit can be reshaped for a post-pandemic future. bit.ly/3Yj9f0s

Though the midterms are over, we’re doubling down on sustained youth voter outreach.
Campaigns must do the same.

Sinema followed through on her promise to make decisions by listening to business leaders.
NEW: We've obtained footage of @SenatorSinema addressing Arizona's largest business group about the PRO Act.
"The way I make decisions on behalf of Arizona & for our constituents is by listening to the business leaders" she assures them.
She never mentions listening to workers.

Illinois requires media literacy to taught in HS, but NJ is first state to enact a media literacy curriculum starting in kindergarten. Our kids in MA need this too! Anyone working on this already? Anyone at the statehouse want to take this on? Sign me up to help! #mapoli #bospoli
"With the media literacy curriculum...students would learn how to conduct research, analyze information, determine credible sources, and ask questions to better reach their own conclusions."

Factory workers across the U.S. say they were exposed to asbestos on the job – sometimes for decades.
Their accounts contrast sharply with what chemical giants have said about worker safety at their facilities.

Kudos to the nonprofits here and shame especially on the elected officials who are validating their constituents' NIMBYism

Just got laid off from BuzzFeed and I’m truly heartbroken. I have so much passion for writing and to get this news right before Christmas is truly devastating. If anyone is looking for a writer—I’m available for hire. 🙁

Vote suppressors are BIG-mad right now. They’ll try to spin the turnout in #Georgia and claim SB202 made voting easier. That’s a lie. Their discriminatory intent in limiting dropboxes + vote by mail and shortening the time before runoff elections was to ensure fewer people vote.

Some history-making tonight:
• First midterm since '62 that Dems netted Senate seats while holding White House
• First midterm since '34 that the WH party netted Senate seats *and* governorships
• First midterm since '34 that the WH party didn't *lose* a single Senate seat

Press just got a copy of @ReverendWarnock's prepared speech (as he's giving it), and damn, this guy sure can freestyle! (But we all knew that, I guess.)
