"Earlier this week we were alerted to the possibility that unknown individuals were mailing certain suspicious items to various Congressional offices across the country.  Late this morning, an envelope matching that description was received in our Brockton office, seemingly containing an unknown substance.  In accordance with safe mail handling protocol, the envelope was not opened and our staff immediately notified authorities.  In extremely short time, the Brockton Police Bomb squad, Brockton Fire Dept. Hazmat team,  Mass. State Police, the Boston office of the FBI and the U.S. Postal Inspector investigators responded to the scene, secured the building and conducted a preliminary threat assessment. Thankfully the on-site findings revealed no evidence of contamination or hazardous threat and the envelope has been removed from the premises for further laboratory analysis.  Our Congressional offices have been cleared to re-open on Monday and all other offices and businesses located at 37 Belmont Street in Brockton have been cleared to resume weekend operations. For the time being all correspondence mailed to our Massachusetts offices in Boston, Brockton and Quincy will now be rerouted through our Washington DC office where it will undergo full Capitol complex screening procedures before being handled. I am deeply grateful to the Brockton Police and Fire Department personnel, our State Police, the U.S. Postal Inspector and Boston Office of the FBI for their rapid and thorough response and to the U.S. Capitol Police and House Sgt. at Arms for their guidance in addressing this threat."

"Smart investments in transportation make a real difference for our communities! We broke ground on the Logan Express Remote Terminal in Braintree, the first permanent remote terminal in the United States. This project will create a “remote terminal” for Delta and JetBlue passengers in Braintree that will allow passengers to have their baggage screened and complete the entire airport security process before they arrive at Logan Airport, with bus drop-off post-security, enabling them to proceed directly to the departure gate. This Union-built facility will give South Shore residents a convenient way to access Logan Airport while supporting local workers and businesses. I’m proud to have worked alongside @MassGovernor, @townofbraintree Mayor Erin Joyce, @Massport CEO Rich Davey, @MBTA Secretary Phil Eng, Senators Bill Driscoll and John Keenan, and Representative Mark Cusack for making this happen. And special thanks to Pat Mulkerrin of the Quincy/South Shore Building Trades and Lou Antonellis of @IBEW103 and the skilled men and women who actually make these projects possible."

"I stand with MGB nurses and Home Care clinicians!   I urged @MassGenBrigham leadership to honor their commitment to patient safety by returning to the negotiating table in good faith and reaching a fair contract with @MassNurses.   Our dedicated nurses deserve a contract that reflects the world-class care they provide to our communities. Nurses are always there for us, and I am proud to stand in solidarity with them!"
