POLITICO Massachusetts Playbook: SENATE’s shared representation — HEALEY’s transparency — MARKEY, LYNCH, WALSH unveil housing plan
- "Baker, Healey split on electricity sellers," by Bruce Mohl, CommonWealth Magazine: "Gov. Charlie Baker parted ways with Attorney General Maura Healey on Friday on the issue of how to rein in abuses by some 50 companies that sell electricity to residential customers, often through door-to-door solicitations. Healey said at the end of March that the industry as a whole has been so deceptive in its sales practices that it needs to be eliminated. Baker originally hedged on whether he favored Healey's approach, but his administration signaled on Friday that it favored more regulation as the answer to the problem."
ICYMI - "Kerry is quietly seeking to salvage Iran deal he helped craft," by Matt Viser, Boston Globe: "John Kerry's bid to save one of his most significant accomplishments as secretary of state took him to New York on a Sunday afternoon two weeks ago, where, more than a year after he left office, he engaged in some unusual shadow diplomacy with a top-ranking Iranian official. He sat down at the United Nations with Foreign Minister Javad Zarif to discuss ways of preserving the pact limiting Iran's nuclear weapons program."
- "Lawsuit challenges the high cost of calling from jail," by Maria Cramer, Boston Globe: "Pearson is among four plaintiffs, two of them inmates, who have sued Bristol County Sheriff Thomas M. Hodgson and Securus Technologies Inc., a Texas-based company that provides phone services for inmates across the country, over the high phone rates. The lawsuit alleges that the sheriff office's contract with Securus represented an illegal kickback scheme that has nearly doubled the cost of calls made from county jails."
