Governor Maura Healey had recently published an updated dashboard on the Commonwealth’s official website, underlining the impact of federal cuts by the Trump Administration on Massachusetts. Healey reported that currently, over $3.7 billion has been wind-downed from the state so far this year, all of which has been located in various programs and services such as health care and housing.
Smola on the website’s progress report, "Why not try and come together and figure out some of those things that we agree upon or can agree upon and work together? So I'm not sure that that's the best approach. I think there's probably a better way to do it. And remember that we're all in this boat together. So we sink, we swim, we rise, we fall as a collective commonwealth and as a collective country. So let's try and find the common ground. If we can find the common ground, we're all going to be better off."
