Franklin TURKEY TROT Registration Open |
"A ban on flavored tobacco and tax on e-cigarettes, a $1.5 billion public education funding overhaul, and a new attempt to crack down on distracted driving all landed on Gov. Charlie Baker’s desk as lawmakers wrapped up their formal business of the year.
His immediate response to all three proposals: no major objections but he wants to read the bills.
Baker has supported parts of each bill or filed his own similar versions, but it remains unclear whether the governor will sign any of the legislation sent to him, return something with a proposed amendment or veto a proposal. In separate public comments Thursday, Baker declined to outline his plans explicitly."
Investing $1.5 billion in public schools, updating statewide education policy, and supporting effective approaches to close student opportunity gaps

"Volunteers are needed to help install wreaths, bows and greenery as the Franklin Downtown Partnership and Franklin Garden Club are joining forces to decorate the downtown on Sunday.
Interested volunteers will meet Beautification Chairperson Eileen Mason at 9 a.m. Sunday at the downtown bridges. Community service hours are available for students. Groups and teams are encouraged to participate.
Help is also needed at noon Saturday at Hillside Nurseries to sort greens.
“We enjoy making the downtown Franklin festive during the holidays every year,” Mason said in a statement. “We’re a group of volunteers and we’re only able to take on these projects with a lot of help from the community. We are very appreciative of all the volunteer help and Hillside Nurseries for sourcing the greens, wreaths and decorations. Thank you to the Franklin DPW for its support as well. We hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday season!”
