But if the pomp, circumstance and history weren’t enough for you, Healey made sure to bring a little substance to the affair. In a 3,200-plus word inaugural address, she laid out concrete goals for her administration across a gamut of topics. You canOn increasing housing and improving affordability:
“We’ll get first-time homebuyers the help they need, and reduce costs for renters by expanding tax deductions.”“I’ve already proposed a child tax credit for every child, for every family. The legislature also put forward several worthy tax cut proposals during the last legislative session.” “It means doing more for mental health care and food security. Our students can’t reach their potential if they are homeless or hungry or suffering from untreated mental illness.”“… I will appoint a GM with deep experience and a laser focus on making our transit safe and reliable. In the next 60 days, we’ll appoint a Safety Chief to inspect our system, top to bottom and track by track.”
