Letter to the Editor: The shame of it: Mainline Democrats pushing the war-funding bandwagon

To the Editor: Thank you to our Seventh Congressional District representative, Ayanna Pressley, on her signing last month of the letter to the Biden administration advising negotiations to end the war in Ukraine. Alas, this mild peace advocacy by a few dozen members of the Congressional Progressive Caucus was quickly condemned by mainline Dems, including Massachusetts Rep.

About thirty people joined a march along Washington Street in Codman Square last Thursday to push for state lawmakers to adopt a bill intended to halt no-fault evictions in the wake of the Covid pandemic.
The event— organized by City Life/Vida Urbana and held despite a heavy rain— highlighted the group’s success in assisting two Dorchester people— Jean Gaspard and Stephania Pierre-Noel— who were facing imminent evictions earlier this year to stay in their homes.
