Key MA Down Ballot Voting Issues: cspa.tufts.edu 26:47 MA legislature 32:51 Your Commonwealth
9:24 YES would enable the state auditor greater investigative authority around ensuring agencies comply with regulatory rules & laws. MA is less transparent than FL. Core legislative functions will remain off-limits.
14:19 NO would allow MA state to continue setting high standards for graduation vs a fractured, district-based landscape. MA has MCAS while NY has Regents exams. MA, NY, & CA lead the nation in # of schools.
18:03 YES would provide new sector-based bargaining regulations empowering ride share drivers who are unable to unionize & receive better pay & benefits. Landmark test case opportunity.
21:48 YES would allow for certain psychotropic drugs to be 1) privately grown & distributed for free, not sold. 2) Used by a discrete group of licensed professionals at health & wellness centers.
29:03 YES would require employers to directly cover the full minimum wage ($15) first BEFORE tips. Currently, employers can pay a partial wage ($7) first then see if tips cover the rest ($7) before closing the gap ($1).
