Excited to host this #CriminalJustice Forum on #COVID19Decarceration in prisons & jails with Rep. @MaryKeefeMA this Thursday! We need to make sure public health guidelines are being followed inside prisons and jails & that conditions are safe for prisoners & staff.

THURSDAY - May 7th
As part of their on-going push for everyone's safety and better transparency, @MaryKeefeMA & @JamieEldridgeMA are co-hosting another forum on incarceration.
.
Looking forward to co-hosting this important discussion with @JamieEldridgeMA. We must continue pushing for releases from our prisons and jails, where the COVID-19 infection rate is drastically higher than the general public. It's a matter of public health & human rights. #mapoli

ICYMI: @MassGovernor announced that schools are closed thru the end of the school year and non-essential programs are closed until June 29. This is necessary to keep everyone healthy & socially distanced. Remote learning guidance will be issued by @MASchoolsK12 later this week.

H.4647 became law today. This is more than just a housing justice issue, it is a public health issue.
In a time where our collective health and safety depends on the ability of each of us to shelter in place, the need for housing stability has never been greater.
#mapoli
Housing is fundamental to ensuring community safety during the #COVID19 crisis and will remain so during the recovery process. Big thanks to Rep. @MikeConnollyMA, Rep. Honan, House & Senate leadership, and advocates who fought for these protections! #EvictionMoratorium #mapoli
