‘Vote her in next, Massachusetts’ — $15 minimum wage, paid family leave ballot questions to be dropped — KENNEDY joins hunger strike 06/27/2018 07:17 AM EDT By Lauren Dezenski  (ldezenski@politico.com; @LaurenDezenski) with Brent D. Griffiths (bgriffiths@politico.com; @BrentGriffiths) GOOD MORNING, MASSACHUSETTS. NY-14'S MASSACHUSETTS CONNECTION —  A progressive woman of color, facing institutional opposition and a significant fundraising gap, wages a long-shot bid against a 10-term, scandal-free white male incumbent. Sounds a lot like Boston City Councilor  Ayanna Pressley 's campaign to unseat Rep.  Michael Capuano  in Massachusetts' 7th District, right? But those were the contours in New York's 14th District, where 28-year-old  Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez  decisively defeated Rep.  Joe Crowley  in the Democratic primary last night. There's even a Massachusetts connection to the winning campaign — Pressley sent her field dire...

FIRST IN PLAYBOOK - PRESSLEY HITS SIX FIGURES -  In the seven days after Boston City Councilor  Ayanna Pressley  announced her bid to unseat Rep.  Michael Capuano , her campaign has already hit an important milestone: They've already raked in over $100,000, her campaign tells me. Among the donors who already maxxed out their donations to Pressley:  Deb Benson , attorney and founding member of Invest to Elect and the MA Equal Pay Coalition;  Sean Curran  of Waterville Consulting;  Dennis Kanin , principal, New Boston Ventures;  Georgia Murray , chair of Pressley's Finance Committee;  Dorothy Terrell , Managing Partner, FirstCap Advisors;  Naomi Aberly , activist & philanthropist; and  Jamie Chisholm  of DraftKings.

Jamie Eldridge Senator Jamie Eldridge calls for Senator Stan Rosenberg to resign immediately I call on Senator Stan Rosenberg to resign from his position as State Senator, effective immediately. In addition, I urge the Senate Committee on Ethics to recommend stronger punishment for Senator Rosenberg, including immediate censure, and suspension of Senator Rosenberg as a State Senator. Today, my Senate colleagues and I read S.2510, Report of the Senate Committee on Ethics, Concerning the Conduct of Senator Stanley C. Rosenberg. I am deeply disturbed, appalled, and hurt by the actions of Senator Rosenberg, as thoroughly detailed in the Senate Committee on Ethics Report. I commend the independent investigators, and the members of the Senate Committee on Ethics, for their hard work, which is evidenced in this comprehensive report. From the review of the Report, conversations with my colleagues, constituents, and fellow Massachusetts residents, reading the Massachus...

Net neutrality is dead

Dear Friend, Net neutrality is dead — at least for now, with it the dissenting voices like that of Countercurrents.org, unless we act urgently and collectively. In a 3-2 vote today, the Federal Communications Commission approved a measure to remove the tough net neutrality rules it put in place just two years ago. Those rules prevented internet providers from blocking and throttling traffic and offering paid fast lanes. They also classified internet providers as Title II common carriers in order to give the measure strong legal backing. André Staltz a reputed technology blogger wrote that internet started dying back in 2014. He predicts that what's coming is the consolidation of internet monopolies , namely Google, Facebook and Amazon what he terms as Trinet. Those interested can read the article here.  https://staltz.com/the-web-began-dying-in-2014-heres-how.html The inaugural World Inequality Report published on Thursday by economists Thomas Piketty, Emmanuel Saez, Gabr...
