Thank you to MassDOT Secretary Tibbitts-Nutt for taking us up on the the invitation to visit Franklin County to talk with us about the transportation challenges and opportunities in Franklin County (and ride on a bus to see it first hand).
You and your team are clearly committed to rural communities and regional equity. We are grateful for your partnership in exploring ways to support improvements related to rail, roadways (paved and unpaved!), culverts and our invaluable regional transit authorities like the Franklin Regional Transit Authority.
Thanks to Franklin Regional Council of Governments for hosting us and for using your tremendous planning expertise to help us better understand how the Commonwealth can better support Franklin County.
You can watch the meeting on Frontier Community Access Television here:

Got to spend the morning with Franklin Regional Transit Authority to celebrate National Transit Employee Appreciation Day! Thanks to everyone in the transit industry who gets us where we need to go.
WOW! What a turnout this morning at Jane Doe Inc.’s advocacy day in the State House! Over 220 people from across the Commonwealth were in the building today advocating for passage of critical legislation that will help to end violence, including a bill that I filed to stop abusive litigation.
With House passage of legislation to address teen sexting and image-based sexual assault; coercive control; and the statute of limitations for domestic violence offenses, we know that advocacy days like this make a difference.
THANK YOU to everyone who showed up today to make your voices heard!
