Episode Synopsis

The Massachusetts State House appears to have no agenda at all, and passes small reforms for haphazard reasons. Our state Democratic Party Platform is far ahead of the State House and its veto-proof majority of state reps, who seem to not even be aware that it exists. We look at other states who have narrower margins and pass life-changing policies. Jordan Berg Powers, Jonathan Cohn, and Anna Callahan chat about Massachusetts politics. This is the audio version of Incorruptible Massachusetts season 4 episode 6; you can watch the video version on YouTube. You’re listening to Incorruptible Massachusetts. Our goal is to help people understand state politics: investigate why it’s so broken, imagine what we could have here in MA if we fixed it, and report on how you can get involved.
