POLITICO Massachusetts Playbook: Polling WARREN — DIZOGLIO eyes the Senate — DEVAL’s college Dems meeting


POLITICO Massachusetts Playbook: Polling WARREN — DIZOGLIO eyes the Senate — DEVAL’s college Dems meeting


CHARLIE BAKER ASLEEP AGAIN?

- "20 state troopers face possible discipline in overtime scam probe," by Mark Arsenault, Travis Andersen and Shelley Murphy, Boston Globe: "In another black eye for the scandal-ridden Massachusetts State Police, 20 active troopers face potential sanctions for the apparent theft of overtime pay, with the most egregious alleged offenders putting in for as many as 100 no-show shifts, officials said Tuesday. State Police officials said they have reported their findings, which stemmed from an investigation launched last fall, to Attorney General Maura Healey's office for review and potential prosecution. "

A DISTRACTION BY CHARLIE BAKER FROM THE SCANDALS THAT SURROUNDS HIM?

- "Baker pushes more 'urgency' in changing fentanyl trafficking law," by Joshua Miller, Boston Globe: "Governor Charlie Baker and top law enforcement officials urged the Legislature Tuesday to make it easier to prosecute traffickers of fentanyl, the ultrapowerful opioid that is often mixed into heroin and plays an increasingly deadly role in Massachusetts' overdose crisis. But because of how a 2015 bill by Attorney General Maura Healey was drafted, prosecutors say it's extremely difficult to charge someone with fentanyl trafficking. Healey ... backs tweaking the fentanyl law."

DeLeo's COVER-UP!

- "State Rep. Shines A Light On NDAs On Beacon Hill," by Meghna Chakrabarti and Kassandra Sundt, WBUR: "The Massachusetts Legislature has been roiled for a couple of months now by accusations of tolerating a culture of sexual harassment on Beacon Hill. House Speaker Robert DeLeo has promised to confront the issue head on. But last week, as the House was voting on new procedures to deal with harassment, Rep. Diana DiZoglio rose in support of her own amendment to the proposed rules, and to tell her story about how she'd specifically been told to sign a non-disclosure agreement after she'd been harassed in the workplace."


FACT CHECKING TRUMP - "Study cited by Trump polled just 20 drug users," by Allison DeAngelis, Eagle-Tribune: "Lawrence's status as the source of New Hampshire's drug addiction scourge isn't quite as clear-cut as President Donald Trump portrayed it to be, according to a researcher from the study he cited in his national speech in Manchester on Monday. While announcing new opioid initiatives, Trump cited a July 2017 report from Dartmouth College and the National Drug Early Warning System as evidence that Lawrence played a large role in New Hampshire's drug problems. However, the study Trump referenced does not support the declarations he made this week."
