GOOD MORNING, MASSACHUSETTS. Happy Monday!
NEW THIS MORNING: HOLYOKE MAYOR TAKES ON NEAL —Holyoke Mayor Alex Morse is making it official: He's running for Congress against Rep. Richard Neal to "take on the D.C. establishment" and "make people's lives better."
Morse will announce his campaign this morning, and the 30-year-old mayor isn't pulling any punches when it comes to Neal, a 30-year incumbent and chairman of the powerful House Ways and Means Committee.
"There's an urgency in this moment in our country , and that urgency is not matched by our current representative in Congress," Morse says in a campaign video released today. "It's no accident we have the disparities that we have in the district. There's no transparency. It sends a message that wealthy donors and corporate PACs and corporations are far more important than the interests and needs and struggles of the people we interact with each and every day."
The announcement video highlights Morse's experience growing up poor in Holyoke, becoming the first person in his family to graduate from college, and coming home to run for public office. Morse was elected mayor when he was 22 in 2011, making him the youngest and first openly gay leader of Holyoke. He poses a generational contrast to Neal, 70, who was sworn in to Congress in 1989.
Morse's campaign says the mayor has overseen "a rebirth in Holyoke, " including unemployment levels at a 25-year low, a drop in crime, and an increased high school graduation rate. Holyoke Public Schools were placed in state receivership in 2015. Morse was an early supporter of making Holyoke a 'sanctuary city,' a proponent of legalizing marijuana and welcomed Puerto Rican families to the city who were displaced by Hurricane Maria.
Taking on a powerful incumbent is tough, and Neal has plenty of money in the bank. The Springfield lawmaker has close to $4 million in cash on hand, according to campaign finance records. Morse's campaign says it aims to raise upwards of $3 million to compete. Neal's 2018 primary challenger, Springfield attorney Tahirah Amatul-Wadud, only raised $146,000 last cycle.
"We are fortunate to live in a country where everyone can have his or her voice heard by running for office, and that's why Congressman Neal will welcome anyone into this race. Richie has been a champion for working families in Western Massachusetts and has fought tirelessly to ensure that the people of our region are not forgotten and receive our fair share," Neal spokesman Peter Panos said in a statement last night. Neal is also in the process of suing for President Donald Trump's tax returns.
One national group is already taking aim at Neal's record. Adam Green, co-founder of the Progressive Change Campaign Committee, said last night that Neal has "got to go" and that his organization will likely back Morse in the primary race.
"[Neal] consistently sides with giant corporations and the political establishment against progress for his constituents," Green said in a statement. The PCCC has raised $30 million in grassroots donations for progressive candidates and committees over the last decade, including nearly $2 million for Sen. Elizabeth Warren's two Senate campaigns here in Massachusetts.
One area where Morse separates himself from Neal is on campaign finance. Morse has pledged to refuse corporate PAC donations, while Neal is among the top recipients of corporate PAC money in Congress. Neal pushes back on that criticism, and says his ability to raise money is part of the reason Democrats were able to take back the House in 2018. He's one of the top donors to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee.
A release announcing Morse's run lists Gina Christo, a senior consultant at Rivera Consulting, Inc., as the campaign's press contact. Christo previously served as finance director for Rep. Ayanna Pressley's primary campaign against former Rep. Michael Capuano in 2018, and Rivera Consulting chief Wilnelia Rivera served as political strategist for Pressley's 2018 bid.

- Deal struck on $43 billion state budget, drug price controls," by Matt Stout and Priyanka Dayal McCluskey, Boston Globe: "Three weeks into the fiscal year, legislative leaders on Sunday filed a compromise state budget proposal that plows nearly $270 million more into public school spending, increases funding to the University of Massachusetts without freezing tuition, and spends hundreds of millions more dollars than either the House or Senate initially proposed. The $43.1 billion proposal, which lawmakers expect to pass and send to Governor Charlie Baker on Monday, also includes compromise language aimed at curbing the cost of prescription drugs in the state Medicaid program — a time-consuming debate during lawmakers' weeks-long negotiations."
- "Key figures may not face lawmakers in RMV oversight hearing," by Andrew Martinez, Boston Herald: "Three officials from the Registry of Motor Vehicles, including the former registrar who resigned after a tragic collision was caused by a trucker with unchecked driving violations, may skip out on questions from state lawmakers Monday in a state oversight hearing seeking answers on critical lapses at the agency. Joint Committee on Transportation House Chairman William Straus and Senate Chairman Joseph Boncore sent a letter to Transportation Secretary Stephanie Pollack last week requesting six specific individuals be present at the oversight hearing at 10 a.m. Monday at the Gardner Auditorium at the State House. On Friday, Straus told the Herald Pollack texted him that three of the requested officials said "no" in a text message just before 5 p.m. Those include former Registrar Erin Deveney, who resigned after it was revealed a trucker accused of killing seven motorcyclists last month had out-of-state driving violations that the registry failed to process."
DAY LATE CHARLIE: IF THE RMV HAD DONE ITS JOB, THIS WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE! CHARLIE BAKER IS INCAPABLE OF GOVERNING OR SUPERVISING HIS APPOINTMENTS. JUST MORE GRANDSTANDING.
- "Baker Files Bill To Toughen Commercial Driver Rules After Recent Deadly N.H. Crash," Associated Press: "Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker is filing legislation aimed at toughening regulations for commercial drivers. The bill follows a deadly crash last month that killed seven motorcyclists in New Hampshire in a collision with a truck. The 23-year-old driver, Volodymyr Zhukovskyy, of West Springfield, has pleaded not guilty to negligent homicide and remains behind bars. Baker said Friday his bill would raise the state's standards for commercial driver's licenses above federal standards. Under the bill, those applying for a commercial driver's license would have to demonstrate a history of good driving and would be ineligible if they have been suspended or disqualified from driving at any time in the prior three years."
- "'It infects social groups:' Vaping and e-cigarette use in schools skyrockets; why you should care," by Steph Solis, MassLive.com: "The first e-cigarette Matt Murphy tried was a brick-like device with a large mouthpiece. He took a hit and released an amorphous cloud of smoke, not like the elegant rings that influencers blow out of their mouths in YouTube videos. He wasn't crazy about the harsh aftertaste in the back of his throat. A few months later, on a summer night in 2016, another friend took out a JUUL blowing a faint wisp that smelled minty. Murphy, then a 17-year-old in Reading, wondered what the point was if he was inhaling so little. Then he took a hit."
- "Massachusetts senators to debate ban on child marriage," Associated Press: "A bill that supporters say would end child marriage in Massachusetts could soon come up for a vote in the state Senate. Under Massachusetts law, minors can marry with parental consent or a judge's order. And unlike many other U.S. states, there is no minimum age for marriage. The legislation to ban all under-18 marriages has been placed on the Senate calendar for debate on Thursday. Supporters say hundreds of minors as young as 14 have been married since 2000, most of them girls married to adult men. Delaware and New Jersey became the first two states to pass similar laws last year."
- "MBTA RELEASES DERAILMENT VIDEO AFTER PUBLIC INFO REQUEST," by Chris Lisinski, State House News Service: "The MBTA released video Friday of a June 11 Red Line derailment that officials say will continue to cause delays through most of the summer, the same day T officials said service on a stretch of track will return to normal two weeks earlier than expected. After being instructed by the secretary of state's office Wednesday to respond to a News Service public records request for video of the incident, the MBTA provided about six minutes of footage depicting the incident from two different angles at the JFK/UMass station. Sparks are visible for several seconds as the 50-year-old train approaches the station from the north before the third car bucks, prompting additional sparking and smoke."

- "Ousted Congressman Mike Capuano: Dems must be 'on top of their game,'" by Hillary Chabot, Boston Herald: "Former Congressman Mike Capuano is warning that incumbent Bay State Democrats Ed Markey and Richard Neal "best be aware and on top of their game," as they face hard-left challengers in 2020. Capuano's own shocking defeat by current U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley became a prime example of a growing divide within the Democratic Party that's seen liberals buck tradition and challenge party elders at every level — from a progressive lawyer's challenge of incumbent Senator Markey to Pressley's "squad" flouting the strict leadership of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi. "Every party goes through this on a cyclical basis. Republicans dealt with it recently with the Tea Party. Now it's our turn," Capuano told the Herald in a rare interview since his 2018 unexpected loss. "The country is upset. There's always some incumbents who are going to suffer," he said. The suffering could continue in 2020, with progressives targeting respected and long-serving politicians like Markey and Congressman Neal — the powerful chairman of the House Ways and Means Committee — a position that once would have been considered unassailable."
- "Mass. RMV Hasn't Been Notifying Local Police Of Suspended, Revoked Licenses," by Lexi Peery, WBUR: "The Massachusetts Registry of Motor Vehicles is not regularly complying with a law that requests it notify local police departments of drivers license suspensions and revocations, according to a review by The Boston Globe. A 2014 law requires the RMV to "timely notify" local police of troubled drivers. It came about after 20-year-old Haley Cremer of Sharon was struck and killed in June 2014 by a man who was driving with a suspended license. This review is the latest in a series of problems the agency has faced recently, including revelations of tens of thousands of unprocessed alerts from other states about traffic violations by Massachusetts drivers."
- "Nearly a third of high school students with disabilities experience cyberbullying, report says," by James Vaznis, Boston Globe: "Nearly a third of high school students with disabilities in Greater Boston have experienced cyberbullying over the past year, despite efforts by the state and local districts to curb that kind of harassment, according to an analysis of health survey results by a local foundation. The online bullying can have profound impacts, with more than a third of those victims reporting they had suicidal tendencies due to the harassment they encountered on social media, according to the analysis by the Ruderman Family Foundation, a Boston nonprofit that works on behalf of people with disabilities."
- "Here's How Much Of Their Income Mass. Residents Have To Fork Over For Their Mortgage, By City," by Lisa Williams and Kenya Hunter, WGBH News: "If you get the feeling that housing costs are skyrocketing in Greater Boston, it is not your imagination. The median house price in Massachusetts jumped 41% between the post-financial crash low of 2009, when the median price was $331,417, to today, when it's $467,333. But here's what's really surprising: The median house price in Greater Boston is even higher than the median home price in the New York metropolitan area, and has been since 2013."
- "TripAdvisor sends cease-and-desist letter to organizer of Boston 'Straight Pride Parade' peppered with song references about equality and diversity," by Aviva Luttrell, MassLive.com:"Needham-based TripAdvisor has sent a cease-and-desist letter to the lead organizer of Boston's "Straight Pride Parade," writing that the group is infringing upon the company's intellectual property rights by using its logo without permission. The letter, addressed to John Hugo, president of the group Super Happy Fun America that is organizing the controversial Aug. 31 event, orders the group to remove a TripAdvisor logo that appears on its website under the "corporate sponsors" section."
- "Military studies 'hyperfit' women who pass grueling courses," by Lolita C. Baldor, Associated Press: "In the nearly four years since the Pentagon announced it was opening all combat jobs to women , at least 30 have earned the Army Ranger tab, two have graduated Marine infantry school and three have passed the grueling initial assessment phase for Green Beret training. Their numbers are small, but their completion of some of the military's most arduous physical and mental courses has raised an intriguing scientific question: Who are these "hyperfit" women and what makes them so competitive? Army medical researchers hope to uncover answers in a just-launched voluntary study."

| DAY IN COURT |

- "Jury selection set for Martin Walsh's aides in Boston Calling case," by Andrew Martinez, Boston Herald: "Jury selection in the trial of two of Mayor Martin Walsh's top lieutenants will begin Monday, after a judge tossed the pair's latest attempt to get their case dismissed last week. Boston tourism chief Kenneth Brissette and director of intergovernmental relations Timothy Sullivan are facing charges of extortion under the Hobbs Act for their alleged bullying of a concert organizer in 2014. Prosecutors say Brissette and Sullivan pressured concert organizer Crash Line Productions into hiring unneeded union labor for the 2014 Boston Calling music festival at City Hall Plaza ."
- "Court ruling puts 'sanctuary' cities on notice," by Christian M. Wade, Eagle-Tribune: "Cities and towns that don't cooperate with federal immigration agents could be turned down for public safety grants under a recent court ruling that amounts to a win for the Trump administration's efforts to punish communities for "sanctuary" policies. The ruling last week by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned a nationwide injunction prohibiting the U.S. Department of Justice from favoring cities, towns and counties that cooperate with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement in deportations."

| WARREN REPORT |
|
- "Warren pulls closer to Sanders in progressive straw poll," by David Siders, POLITICO: "Elizabeth Warren has cut sharply into Bernie Sanders' front-runner standing among members of the progressive political action committee Democracy for America, according to the group's latest straw poll, while Kamala Harris vaulted ahead of Joe Biden into third place. Pete Buttigieg, the South Bend, Ind., mayor who was previously running third among the group's progressive activists, plunged to sixth place at about 4 percent in the poll, which was released Monday and obtained first by POLITICO. No candidate other than Sanders, Warren and Harris broke single digits in the survey."
- "Elizabeth Warren Has Momentum. Can She Build a Movement?" by Edward-Isaac Dovere, The Atlantic: "Elizabeth Warren was walking around Milwaukee a week and a half ago, listening to a community activist and a 22-year-old whose parents are undocumented immigrants. They told her the history of bilingual education in the neighborhood around Walker Square Park, and how the blocks have changed over the years. "Talk to me about housing," Warren said. "Where are the teachers drawn from?" The group walked past a sign for the oldest Latino-advocacy agency in the city, and a gentrification signpost: a store called Antiques Addict. Warren was in Wisconsin to speak at a Latino political conference. She used the day to release her immigration plan, the latest in a stream of plans proposing how to revamp the system, in ways that go far beyond what Washington wisdom deems possible. The neighborhood walk felt as if Warren's campaign was merely banking B-roll footage for future ads, while a bunch of reporters tripped over curbs and fire hydrants watching the candidate interact with locals. We ended in a parking lot, beneath a mural of a bald eagle facing a dove under a rainbow, with an olive branch in their beaks, a lightning bolt striking the section closest to the dove."

- "O'Rourke bolsters senior staff with 5 hires," by David Siders and Daniel Strauss, POLITICO: "Beto O'Rourke is expanding his national staff despite a weak fundraising quarter, adding a number of senior hires. Nick Rathod, a Democratic operative who served as President Barack Obama's liaison to state officials, has been hired as a senior national political adviser, a campaign spokesperson confirmed to POLITICO on Friday. Adnan Mohamed, who was deputy national political director for Rep. Seth Moulton's presidential campaign, has been named national political director. Anna Korman, who worked with O'Rourke's campaign manager, Jen O'Malley Dillon, at Precision Strategies, will be O'Rourke's national data director."

| TRUMPACHUSETTS |
|
- "Pressley responds to Trump tweet: Don't take the bait," by Rick Sobey, Boston Herald: "U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley said Sunday that people should not "take the bait" from President Trump and "get off the ride" he launches on Twitter. The congresswoman attending the Roxbury Unity Parade was asked for her reaction to Trump's tweet from earlier in the day — stating he doesn't believe the four congresswomen, including Pressley, are "capable of loving our Country." "I think we all have to not take the bait, and get off the ride that the occupant of this Oval Office has us on," Pressley said in Boston. "Every tweet he sends is meant to be a distraction from the real problems that this country is facing," she added. "And much of this hurt is being exacerbated by him." Trump in the last week has attacked the progressive "squad" of congresswomen, who are all minorities — Pressley, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib."
- "'Why don't they go back': the increasing psychological toll of racism in the Trump era," by Zoe Greenberg, Boston Globe: "Dr. Nicole Christian-Brathwaite has seen a string of children of color at her Newton clinic in recent months with symptoms of anxiety: insomnia, hypervigilance, a fear that they are not safe at home or that when they return from school, a parent will have disappeared. When she presses for more details, the psychiatrist often hears a list of racial terrors, both local and national: swastikas found in the bathroom at school, racist threats against classmates, President Trump's just last week presiding over a crowd of mostly white supporters in Greenville, N.C., chanting "send her back! send her back!" about Representative Ilhan Omar of Minnesota."
- "Boston Fed president tells Trump to back off. Politely, of course," by Larry Edelman, Boston Globe: "Eric Rosengren, president of the Federal Reserve Bank of Boston, doesn't jump on Twitter to air his views and grievances. Bound by Fed rules and custom, when he speaks publicly, his words are carefully chosen, reasoned, and modulated. Such was the case Friday at a panel discussion at Columbia University in New York, where Rosengren made the case for why it's important to allow the central bank to carry out its dual congressional mandate — stable prices, maximum employment — free of political interference."

| MARIJUANA IN MASSACHUSETTS |
|
- "Massachusetts cities and towns collected $2 million in marijuana taxes: Here's who's getting it, and how it's being spent," by Shira Schoenberg, Springfield Republican: "New England Treatment Access is doing more than selling marijuana to consumers — it is also providing a tax revenue windfall to Northampton and Brookline. In the quarter that covered February through April, Northampton received $530,589 in tax payments from NETA, bringing its total since the dispensary opened to the recreational market last November to nearly $1 million. NETA only opened in Brookline March 23, and the company paid $214,020 in municipal taxes to Brookline for sales through the end of April. Northampton Mayor David Narkewicz said he is not counting on this much money going forward. "These early revenues are at the very beginning of this new industry when there is limited supply around the commonwealth," he said."

- "Bernie Sanders might be losing his N.H. firewall," by James Pindell, Boston Globe: "Bernie Sanders and his aides would be forgiven if, when mapping out his 2020 presidential campaign, they didn't spend a lot of time wondering how the Vermont senator would win the New Hampshire Democratic primary. After all, in 2016, no state was better for Sanders than New Hampshire. The independent senator won the first-in-the-nation primary with 60 percent of the vote. The 22-point win over Hillary Clinton — who had a decades-long relationship with New Hampshire — was the biggest victory margin in that state for a competitive Democratic primary in over a half century."

| THE LOCAL ANGLE |
|
- "Lowell Public Schools look into teaching cursive again," by Elizabeth Dobbins, The Lowell Sun: "Cursive is good for more than signatures, but students aren't learning it. That's what School Committee member Andre Descoteaux argued during a meeting Wednesday night. He made a motion requesting the superintendent explore teaching cursive handwriting to all students as part of the district's art classes. "I've had numerous parents talk to me over the years in asking why don't we teach cursive any more in our public schools," Descoteaux said. "There's really no good answer to that other than we're so fixated on trying to get our kids ready to take MCAS exams that I think we've lost sight of that." Descoteaux said it's an important practice that can develop fine motor skills. He argued private school students are being taught cursive, but not public school students."
- "McDonough donates $10 million to Worcester Art Museum, largest gift of its kind in museum's history," by Isaac Feldberg Boston Globe: "The Worcester Art Museum announced Sunday that it has received a $10 million donation from the C. Jean & Myles McDonough Charitable Foundation — the largest gift of its kind in the museum's history. The donation, intended to strengthen WAM's existing operations and endowments while fostering its future ambitions, comes less than four years after the Foundation's $4 million endowment of the museum's directorship, consequently named for the McDonoughs. And for Jean McDonough, it marks the most sizable show of support yet for an institution she's championed throughout her life. "The Worcester Art Museum is a tremendous resource for culture and education for people throughout New England, and an institution greatly deserving all of our support," said Neil McDonough, Jean McDonough's son, in a statement."
- "Sensitive to ageism, senior centers grapple with what to call themselves," by Craig S. Semon, Telegram & Gazette: "At its June meeting, the Oxford Council on Aging voted in favor of changing the name of the Oxford Senior Center to the Oxford Social Center because the word "senior" could be perceived as derogatory toward people of a certain age. On July 9, the Oxford Board of Selectmen unanimously approved the change. "We wanted to take the word 'senior' out because the trend is that the word 'senior' denotes ageism and frailty," said Stacy Barr, executive director of the Oxford Council on Aging, director of Oxford Social Center and director of the Oxford Community Center."
- SHARK WATCH: "In a dramatic close call, a big shark grabs a fish and surprises boaters in Cape Cod Bay," by Peter Bailey-Wells and Kenneth Singletary, Boston Globe: "There's always a bigger fish. An expedition in Cape Cod Bay found that out in a remarkable fashion Saturday when a shark launched itself out of the water mere feet behind a fishing boat as the people on board were reeling in a catch. Doug Nelson was on the boat recording a video when the sudden incident happened. They had hooked a couple of big stripers and were bringing them in, so he moved in closer with the video camera, he said. That's when, without warning, the shark suddenly went after one of the stripers, its attack so swift and so close that the shark's tail hit the boat's stern."
- MEANWHILE IN NEW HAMPSHIRE: "In N.H., Mack's Apples known as much for apples as presidential campaign visits," by Lisa Kashinsky, Boston Herald: "A weathered-wood farmstand sits just off a busy street. Picnic tables overlook a picturesque pond lined with lush, green trees. A red barn stands near the water's edge, sunlight streaming through skylight cutouts, apple bins piled high below the rafters. Mack's Apples, a Londonderry icon and the oldest family-run farm in New Hampshire, has become a popular stop for those aspiring to hold the country's highest office. Over the years, patriarch Andy Mack Sr. has played host to Newt Gingrich and Bob Dole, Barack and Michelle Obama, and most recently Bernie Sanders and Joe Biden. Mack, 83, wasn't always a political activist. But he's ramped up his involvement in recent years, welcoming a slew of candidates seeking a variety of offices — mostly Democrats — to stop by for a bag of apples or a stump speech."
REMEMBERING GEORGE CRONIN ... per his obit: "George was devoted to public service and helping others. He practiced law for decades, serving as a strong advocate for those who needed a voice in the pursuit of justice. George also spent many years serving in various capacities in state government. In 1963, he began a long and rewarding career at the State House, working for Governor Endicott Peabody. In 1964, George was elected to the Governor's Council, motivated by his belief in the role that government plays in assisting the disadvantaged. He served with distinction until 1982, when he resigned his seat to become the Governor's Council's Administrative Secretary, a position that he held and was deeply committed to until his death." Link.
REMEMBERING PUMPSIE GREEN ... from the NYT: "On July 21, 1959, Pumpsie Green made his major league debut as an eighth-inning pinch-runner with the Boston Red Sox, then played shortstop to finish the game against the Chicago White Sox at Comiskey Park. Green's appearance was merely a blip in the box score, but his presence in a Red Sox uniform represented a climactic moment in baseball history. Green, who died on Wednesday at 85 at a hospital in San Leandro, Calif., was the first black player for the Red Sox, the last of the 16 major league franchises of the time to have remained all white."
