We broke down the “No” vote on Massachusetts Ballot Question 9, which would repeal the state’s 2024 gun law and roll back the changes it made to Massachusetts firearms regulations. For gun owners, that could mean changes to requirements involving licensing, ghost guns, assault-style weapons, machine guns and where firearms can be carried. For a deeper dive into what a “No” vote would mean for gun owners and Massachusetts’ firearms laws, Dan talked with John Mawhinney, Chief of Staff of the Civil Rights Coalition.

Continued conversation about a new report from MA Attorney General Campbell’s office finds that more than 270 Catholic clerics abused nearly 1,000 children across the Fall River, Springfield, and Worcester dioceses over several decades. The investigation also found cases where church leaders failed to act on allegations, moved accused priests to other parishes without disclosing the reasons, and did not consistently report allegations to law enforcement. Dan took a closer look at the findings, what the report says about the church’s handling of abuse allegations, and what could happen next for survivors and the three dioceses.

Leaders from all six New England states gathered in Lowell today to talk about whether nuclear power could help meet the region’s growing demand for electricity. The one-day summit focused on newer, advanced nuclear technology, with discussions about safety, waste, and how these smaller reactors could fit into the region’s energy future. The meeting comes as Gov. Maura Healey pushes to repeal a Massachusetts law requiring a statewide vote before a new nuclear plant can be built. Dan was joined by Deb Katz, Executive Director of the Citizens Awareness Network, to discuss the group’s position on nuclear power.
