My '24 resolution is to drive less. Week 1 takeaway is it takes lots of planning! Of 104 m in trips, carpooled 51%, public transited 25%, walk/biked 10% & drove solo 14%.

Show me a weirder holiday display than Mystic Valley charter school placing a blow-up Grinch & stolen @RideBluebikes bikes in the fenced-off lot of the business they just bought and tore down, and a sign that says “no bus and bike lanes.” Folks they get public education money.

This is huge! Hope MLPs are held to the same standards especially after the Peabody Peaker debacle. TY @MassGovernor!

Very excited by the opportunities in this legislation and encourage municipal officials to be open to it, esp ADUs. It is time!

We can be honest about the housing market in Massachusetts right now. Rent eats up paychecks. Homeownership seems out of reach. To bring down costs, we need more places to live. Today, we filed the Affordable Homes Act — our blueprint to create and rehab more than 65K homes.

Love hearing from more pro-housing people joining their local planning & zoning boards in Massachusetts.
Want to have an impact on our housing crisis? Join your local planning board, zoning board, conservation commission, design review board, redevelopment authority board, etc.

From Leominster to Libya, we are seeing the devastating impacts of climate crisis. This is why I have asked my colleagues on Wakefield Town Council to order a town-wide climate plan bc every decision should consider climate impact!
