Justice Democrats - MA

@alwaystheself The mayor of Provincetown is Alex Morse, a super guy!

@_waleedshahid @justicedems @alexandrasiera Where are you headed?

a recent @FT article declared that "capitalism won't deliver the energy transition fast enough." spot on 🎯 breaking down the article:

@michaelmezz @FT Thank you!

@MikeConnollyMA Thank you Mike!!!

Social housing is the most exciting concept in housing policy right now! Last month, I was proud to introduce the Massachusetts Social Housing Act to the legislature's Joint Committee On Housing. Learn more about our new bill here on my State House blog: repmikeconnolly.org/introducing_th…

@BorisvanderSpek @ChasGerretsen fascista de mierda

This pic was taken by @ChasGerretsen in the days after the coup. The Pinochet portrait became a symbol for the Condor years, the CIA funded dictatorships in Latin America and their blood thirst. You can (and should) support Gerretsen's work on Kickstarter: kickstarter.com/projects/chasg…

@MikeConnollyMA @Boston_DSA You Rock!!!

Last week, after the new leadership of @Boston_DSA introduced a motion to expel me from the organization, I expressed my intention to defend my record and fight to continue being part of the group. The “charges” were, essentially, that I demonstrated a willingness to work with and support elected leaders and activists who are delivering results for working class and marginalized communities. I am guilty as charged, and proudly so. The outpouring of support I have received is overwhelming, and a clear testament to the fact that progressives want elected leaders who deliver results. From my Cambridge and Somerville constituents, to my colleagues in government, to elected leaders and activists across the country, there was a profound and humbling show of support for me and for the simple truth that building broad coalitions in support of progressive goals is a necessity, not an abandonment of values. The conversation that emerged about the necessity of building coalitions broader than our political base was very clarifying and it raised a critical question: Why continue with an organization whose new leadership has made it clear they oppose seeking common ground with state leaders or building broader coalitions to benefit working people? The answer, sadly, is there is no reason to continue with an organization that holds such beliefs. I am proud of the work I’ve done as an elected leader and an activist, and I’m proud of all the members of the diverse coalitions we’ve built and worked with over the years. I will continue to work with and support leaders, irrespective of organizational affiliation or political faction, who put the needs of the people first. As I continue to do this work, however, I will be doing it without any affiliation with Boston DSA.

@nowthisnews disgusting pigs

We ALL need to do better 🌎♻️

@SociologistRay @paulalantz @Williams Go, Rashawn go!!!

@anthonyocampo you deserve it so much

I won the Founder’s Award from the ASA Section on Racial and Ethnic Minorities for my very Filipino, queer work. 🥳 This esp means a lot not only b/c I’m in amazing company but also b/c I feel like this is the kind of award that rarely goes to scholars who aren’t at the R1s.

@NoLieWithBTC it is like we had and have no choice

Maybe because Biden voters aren’t in a cult.

Today was powerful yet emotional day our delegation was invited to spend the day in this autonomous community in Cuba 🇨🇺 These beautiful innocent children who deserve so much better don’t deserve to be on Terrorist list imposed by our US Government decades ago end the Blockade!

@RepCasar @AOC GREN NEW DEAL NOW!!!!!!!

We can have BOTH a thriving economy AND an inhabitable planet with a #GreenNewDeal. 🌎🌱👷🏽‍♂️

@MikeConnollyMA Absolutely Mike!

I agree with Gov. Healey that it's our responsibility as a Commonwealth to deliver more housing. That's why I am introducing the Social Housing Act to establish a public developer that will allow us to produce more units for all incomes than we could via conventional means alone.
