Rep. Joe Kennedy Checks In... Congressman Joe Kennedy (D-MA) recently fired a salvo at his opponent Ed Markey saying: “Sen. Markey isn’t here enough. He isn’t in Massachusetts enough. And in the months ahead, more than ever, we are going to need a senator who will be on the ground — with us — as we recover and build.” The Congressman joins Dan tonight to talk about the campaign, the issues, the pandemic, and whatever else you want to discuss.

Back To School? During yesterday's Senate hearing, Dr. Anthony Fauci, former director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, told Congress that most likely there will not be a COVID-19 vaccine available to help assure students worried about returning to school. Dr. Fauci called it "a bridge too far," intimating schools maybe should not be re-opened in the Fall. Here in Massachusetts the University system has not determined its Fall semester plans nor have most public-school systems. Do you think students will be returning to traditional classes in September? Should they?
