The Mass. Senate voted to cede lawmakers' approval power over new liquor licenses to local officials. House Dems are less enthused. "[My constituents] deserve a voice in that process, and I have no intention of giving up their voice," said @staterepmike bostonglobe.com/2025/05/22/met…

NEW: Local officials — not state lawmakers — would be empowered to determine the number of liquor licenses distributed in their city or town under a measure the Mass. Senate passed Thursday, advancing what would be a regulatory sea change bostonglobe.com/2025/05/22/met… @BostonGlobe

NEW: With still two months left in the fiscal year, Massachusetts' so-called millionaires tax has generated a whopping $2.6 billion in revenue, already surpassing what the state collected from the surtax all of last year. bostonglobe.com/2025/05/21/met… via @BostonGlobe

@AntiWuCoalition @MassGovernor Are you just making things up now? HomeBASE has existed for over a decade for Massachusetts’ homeless women, children & families. It has nothing to do with “felons” or “migrants.” This amendment was supported by Democrats and Republicans.

NEW: MA Sen. Liz Miranda (@LizForBoston) pushed an amendment to give felons and migrants up to $75K in free rent—funded by MA taxpayers. The proposal, which would raise HomeBASE aid from $30K to $75K, sparked backlash and was withdrawn from @MassGovernor’s $425M migrant bill.
