Losing the ticket war is frustrating. Seeing that $100 seat on resale sites for 5X the price is infuriating. I’m introducing legislation to crack down on resale prices and fees and naming it after a New Englander who’s been fighting for fans every step of the way — @NoahKahan. Fair prices. Fewer fees. No complaints.

Governor Maura Healey is filing a proposal that would put guardrails on the ticket resale marketplace in an effort to tamp down on inflated prices for concerts and sporting events. trib.al/VZtqT3O

Noah Kahan “calls” in with his support 🐞

@rural___juror As the state senator for this district and vice chair of the cannabis committee, I approve this message.

The people of our state deserve a fair formula for how local aid is distributed, and today's system falls short, writes Dylan Fernandes. trib.al/rJ11PCp

The state local aid formula is broken. Read my op-ed in the @BostonGlobe here: bostonglobe.com/2026/07/08/opi…

Agree! A feeder train from Buzzards Bay to Middleborough would be a great start.

Everyday Americans are struggling at the grocery store and gas pump while Trump gives tax cuts to billionaires and spends our tax dollars on foreign wars. Instead of sending money overseas, we should invest in housing, healthcare, and programs that help working people.

Cutting back on programs that are meant to make everyday tasks easier just makes life more complicated and expensive for working people. We should be doing the opposite by expanding tools like IRS Direct File so filing is simple, accessible, and free. (2/2)

Happy Tax Day! Here’s your reminder to file your taxes if you haven’t already. As the Trump administration rolled back efforts to expand free tax filing options, millions of Americans must rely on paid services to file basic returns. (1/2)

My statement on Trump threatening the lifeline to Cape & Islanders

These allegations are serious and he should resign to focus on his legal charges and allow for new representation on Cape Cod. bostonglobe.com/2025/04/11/met…

With the news of Rep. Flanagan’s arrest today for defrauding a local group to support his political campaign, he can no longer effectively represent his constitutes in the 1st Barnstable District.

Tom served 14 years in the Massachusetts House, and so many more decades, championing projects and causes that shaped our region. A mentor, runner, golfer, and leader, he leaves behind a legacy of service.

Today, I led the Senate in adjourning in memory of Tom Cahir, a dedicated public servant from the Cape Community.

The Cape’s Bourne & Sagamore bridges are among 68 nationwide without a vulnerability assessment. The Army Corps, which owns them, must act now to ensure their safety. We can’t wait for a disaster—it’s time to evaluate and address any vulnerabilities. bostonglobe.com/2025/03/25/met…

Happy National Ag Day!

Civic education empowers students to shape our democracy, and the Massachusetts Revolutionaries Project brings history to life. Plymouth, the Birthplace of America, is the perfect place to celebrate learning and our future.

Every child deserves a strong start and a deep understanding of our history. At Manomet Elementary in Plymouth, we celebrated Massachusetts 250 and our commitment to education. Massachusetts leads in student achievement, expanding free Pre-K and childcare assistance.

This program ensures students have access to fresh food from local farms in school, supports local farmers, keeps our children healthy, and strengthens our community. This reckless cut will do real damage to our rural communities.

The Trump Administration's decision to cut more than $12 million in federal food aid for children to buy food from local farmers at school harms both farmers and children's health. statehousenews.com/news/executive…
