 PURCH Day on the Hill 2026: UMass Medical Students Advocate for Health and Justice Reform

Courtesy photos attached to this email.

BOSTON / SPRINGFIELD, MA - Thirteen medical students from the Population-based Urban & Rural Health (PURCH) program at UMass Chan Medical School - Baystate gathered at the Massachusetts State House yesterday for “PURCH on the Hill 2026.” This initiative equips future healthcare professionals with the skills and confidence to advocate for policies that address non-medical factors that greatly impact health.

During their visit, students met with legislators and aides to champion two critical public health measures: Clean Slate legislation and increased funding for the Healthy Incentive Program (HIP). They urged lawmakers to: a) help advance the Clean Slate bills sponsored by Sen. Cindy Friedman and Sen. Adam Gomez which are currently in the Senate Ways & Means Committee; and b) increase HIP funding for FY27. While these initiatives extend beyond traditional healthcare, they play a crucial role in preventing health problems by promoting economic stability, food security, stable housing, and overall community well-being.

The group included PURCH students and faculty from UMass Chan Medical School - Baystate, Senator Adam Gomez and Representative Lindsay Sabadosa, as well as staff from Baystate Health, the Public Health Institute of Western Massachusetts, Clean Slate MA, and Men of Color Health Awareness (MOCHA). These leaders and organizations helped the future physicians understand Massachusetts’ policy-making process and how they-as medical professionals–can be strategic advocates for systemic changes.

“The PURCH students bring an incredible level of knowledge, compassion and commitment to their work - they’re focused on more than the care of individual patients; they are also passionate about  strengthening the health and wellbeing of entire communities. It’s truly inspiring to collaborate with them and see the future of health care and public health,” said Andrea Freeman, Policy Director with the Public Health Institute of Western MA.

波士頓公園天鵝船4/18重新啟航

 Swan Boats Opening Day on April 18, 2026

BOSTON – Friday, March 27, 2026 –Mayor Michelle Wu, the Boston Parks and Recreation Department, and the Paget family will host the first ride of the season on the iconic Boston Swan Boats as they open at the Boston Public Garden Lagoon on Saturday, April 18, at 10:00 a.m.

2026 marks the 149th season for the Swan Boats, a beloved tourist attraction and iconic symbol of Boston and the Public Garden. The oldest and smallest boat in the fleet just celebrated its 116th season, while the newest was launched in 1993. The swan on the boats is made from either copper or fiberglass, depending on the age of the boat, and encloses a paddle mechanism that is used to propel the boat through the water. 

Launched in 1877 by Irish immigrant and shipbuilder Robert Paget, the Swan Boats continue to be owned and operated by the Paget family. Mr. Paget designed the Swan Boats after attending the opera Lohengrin in New York City. At the end of the opera, the hero crosses a river in a boat drawn by a swan. In 2025, the Swan Boats were added as a site on the Boston Irish Heritage Trail. 

Fully loaded, each Swan Boat weighs three tons and is powered by the driver using a foot-propelled paddle wheel. The Swan Boats are built on oak-framed pontoons sheathed in copper, just as they were initially constructed in 1877. After being stored in a safe place for the winter, the boats will return to the Public Garden Lagoon in the spring, with Mayor Wu celebrating the first ride of the season.

New England Ratepayers to Receive Nearly $1 Billion Energy Refund, Future Savings of $100 Million Annually 

FERC order comes after years of advocacy by AG Campbell and then-AG Healey to lower utility profits built into rate cases 

 

BOSTON – Governor Maura Healey and Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell applaud the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission’s (FERC) order to cut New England transmission owners’ allowed return on equity (ROE), the profits earned on transmission investments in the region. The order comes after more than a decade of advocacy by the Attorney General’s Office (AGO). If upheld, this order will result in a refund of an estimated $900 million to New England ratepayers and more than $100 million in savings per year going forward. 

 

“People’s energy costs are far too high, and we fought for a long time in this case to lower people’s bills,” said Governor Healey. “This decision makes clear that utilities should not be allowed to make exorbitant profits on the backs of ratepayers, and that those profits should go back in people’s pockets where it belongs. I am going to continue to oppose big rate increases to lower people’s bills.” 

 

“As Massachusetts’ ratepayer advocate, my role is to ensure that utility rates are just and reasonable and that consumers are not paying more than they should,” said AG Campbell. “This decision reflects years of work to challenge excessive transmission profits and deliver meaningful relief. My office will continue to hold utility companies accountable and push for greater oversight to protect residents from unjustified and unreasonable costs.” 

 

“Transmission costs are one of the fastest growing components of our electricity bills,” said Energy and Environmental Affairs Secretary Rebecca Tepper. “We have been pushing for FERC to cut transmission profits and institute greater oversight for several years. This is a landmark decision by FERC that will result in real savings for families and businesses now and in the future. We’re going to keep fighting to lower people’s energy bills.” 

 

FERC’s order, issued on March 19th, cut the ROE that transmission owners can earn on their transmission investments in New England, cutting down on costs for ratepayers going forward while also reducing the incentive to overbuild the transmission system. Due to the length of the proceeding, FERC also required transmission owners to issue refunds reflective of the lower ROE, estimated to be about $900 million in total to New England ratepayers. The cut to transmission owners' ROE will result in more than $100 million in estimated savings per year going forward. Massachusetts customers represent roughly half of all New England ratepayers. FERC will need to determine the timeline and mechanics for the refund, and the AGO stands ready to work with federal regulators, utility companies, and other stakeholders to advocate that refunds are delivered as quickly as possible. 

 

The decision follows more than a decade long proceeding before FERC led by the AGO, along with a coalition of New England state attorneys general, utility commissions and consumer advocates. The case began in 2011 when the AGO-led coalition filed a complaint challenging New England transmission owners’ ROE. The case argued that owners’ costs, which are passed onto ratepayers, were excessive. 

 

As the ratepayer advocate for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell and her office will continue to monitor economic and market conditions and fight to ensure utility companies charge rates that are just and reasonable, so that Massachusetts residents are protected from excessive utility profits. As a result of her office’s participation in more than 175 energy proceedings before regulatory agencies and courts, AG Campbell saved Massachusetts consumers approximately $2.11 billion in utility costs during the 2025 fiscal year. 

 

Transmission service, which is overseen by FERC, includes the poles and wires that deliver large volumes of electricity from generating resources to substations that serve local distribution systems to which homes and business are connected. Building transmission can be an important affordable strategy to deliver power from one region to another, but strong oversight is needed to control costs, particularly the utility profit portion of those costs.  

 

The Healey-Driscoll Administration and the AGO have advocated for greater scrutiny of transmission costs. Transmission costs are rising, driven in part by incumbent transmission owners increased spending on so-called asset condition projects that replace or refurbish aging or damaged transmission infrastructure. In 2023 and 2024, Massachusetts and the other New England states secured agreements from the region’s transmission owners to bring greater visibility and transparency to the planning process for asset condition projects. In 2025, in response to calls from the New England states, consumer advocates, and other stakeholders in the region, ISO New England agreed to provide an independent review of asset condition projects to foster greater oversight and scrutiny of asset condition project spending. Work is underway now to develop a robust asset condition reviewer function at ISO New England. In addition, Governor Healey’s Energy Affordability, Independence, and Innovation Act gives the state’s Energy Facilities Siting Board the authority to review large-scale asset condition projects to ensure developers have justified the need and explored all alternatives before proceeding with a project.

Massachusetts Department of Public Health Advises Consumers to Dispose of Raw Cheddar Cheese Sold by Raw Farm, LLC Due to Ongoing E. coli Outbreak

BOSTON  (March 27, 2026) – The Massachusetts Department of Public Health (DPH) is advising consumers to discard any Raw Farm-brand raw cheddar cheese they have, as federal and state officials investigate an ongoing outbreak of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli infections linked to the product. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, seven illnesses in three states have been identified to date, including two hospitalizations. More than half of the illnesses have affected children under the age of five. No deaths have been reported. At this time, no Massachusetts cases have been linked to the outbreak. DPH is issuing this warning to raise awareness of the potential risk the product poses while it remains in distribution. DPH will continue working with federal partners to monitor the situation. The outbreak has been linked to Raw Farm-brand raw cheddar cheese, including block and shredded cheddar cheese products. According to the FDA, available evidence points to raw cheddar cheese products made by Raw Farm, LLC as the likely source of the outbreak. Raw Farm, LLC declined the FDA’s recommendation to voluntarily remove the products from sale. The products are distributed nationwide. DPH advises consumers to: · Do not eat Raw Farm-brand raw cheddar cheese, including block and shredded cheddar products, while the investigation continues. · Check refrigerators and freezers for these products and throw them away. · Wash and sanitize any surfaces, utensils, containers, or refrigerator areas that may have come into contact with the cheese. This infographic shows how to clean your refrigerator in five steps.  · Watch for symptoms of E. coli infection if you or a family member consumed raw cheddar cheese from Raw Farm, LLC. Contact a health care provider right away if symptoms of E. coli infection develop. Symptoms of Shiga toxin-producing E. coli can include severe stomach cramps, diarrhea that is often bloody, vomiting, and fever. Symptoms typically begin about three to four days after exposure to the bacteria. In some cases, infection can lead to serious kidney complications, including hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS), which may require hospitalization. Young children are at highest risk of getting HUS. People should seek medical care promptly if they have: · Diarrhea and a fever above 102°F · Diarrhea lasting more than three days without improvement · Bloody diarrhea · Vomiting that prevents them from keeping liquids down · Signs of dehydration, such as decreased urination, dry mouth, or dizziness when standing Consumers and retailers can find additional information on the federal outbreak notices from the CDC and FDA.

Healey-Driscoll Administration Awards $1.7 Million in Teacher Apprenticeship Grants

Healey-Driscoll Administration Awards $1.7 Million in Teacher Apprenticeship Grants 

 

Funds support seven school districts, removing financial barriers to teaching and strengthening the K-12 educator workforce  

 
BOSTON – The Healey-Driscoll Administration announced today over $1.7 million in grants to seven school districts implementing the state’s first Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Programs in Massachusetts, a key step in the administration’s efforts to strengthen and grow Massachusetts’ educator workforce. 

 

The awarded districts have launched an initial cohort with 27 registered teacher apprentices, with funding supporting mentorship and supervision, tuition and fees, licensure assessment preparation, professional development and program coordination.  

 

Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Programs (RTAP) provide an innovative, no-cost pathway to earning an Initial teaching license by integrating paid, on-the-job training with academic coursework. Apprentices can earn while they learn under the mentorship of experienced educators. The program is designed to strengthen teacher preparation through job-embedded learning while reducing financial and systemic barriers that can limit access to the teaching profession. 

 

“We need more talented educators in our classrooms, and we need to make it easier for people to enter the teaching profession. That is why our administration launched the state’s first Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program to diversify and strengthen the educator workforce and pipeline across Massachusetts,” said Governor Maura Healey. “These apprenticeship programs are part of our broader goal to grow our workforce and fill 100,000 critical jobs across Massachusetts, including in our schools. By helping districts remove financial barriers and create real pathways into teaching, we are helping more people step into the classroom and make sure every student has access to a great educator.”  

 

“Programs such as the Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program help local communities by cultivating an educator workforce reflective of student populations,” said Lt. Governor Kim Driscoll. “We want to continue to continue expanding access to the teaching profession and providing opportunities for educators advance their skills.”  

 

The primary goals of registered teacher apprenticeships are to cultivate a diverse and effective teacher pipeline that reflects Massachusetts’ student population, address staffing shortages in hard-to-staff licensure areas such as special education, early childhood, English as a second language, and STEM and expand equitable access to the teaching profession. 

 

“We want all students in Massachusetts to have educators with the knowledge, skills and training to best support students’ learning,” said Acting Education Secretary Amy Kershaw. “This program is part of our commitment to supporting both educators and students.”  

 

“All students across the Commonwealth should have access to educators who can respond to their specific learning needs,” said Elementary and Secondary Education Commissioner Pedro Martinez. “We are committed to helping districts fill teaching positions and build a more diverse teacher workforce.”   

 

“The Healey-Driscoll Administration continues to promote the state’s Registered Apprenticeship Program as a proven model that can benefit new industries and in-demand occupations as we work collaboratively to attract and develop untapped talent for meaningful careers in Massachusetts,” said Secretary Lauren Jones. “This Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program is a unique, forward-thinking program that will make teaching careers more accessible, build our talent pipelines, and meet the needs of our communities, schools, and students.” 

 

The grant recipients are:  

• Everett Public Schools: $128,000 
• Lowell Public Schools: $494,150 
• Lynn Public Schools: $275,236 
• Martha’s Vineyard Public Schools: $203,577 
• Randolph Public Schools: $71,961 
• Salem Public Schools: $316,100 
• Waltham Public Schools $249,100 

 

The Registered Teacher Apprenticeship Program is part of Governor Healey’s broader effort to grow Massachusetts’ workforce, including the Governor’s goal to register 100,000 apprentices across key sectors such as education, health care, and the skilled trades over the next decade. By expanding pathways into teaching, the administration is strengthening the educator pipeline and helping ensure every student has access to a high-quality education.
