Running for Governor of MA. Massachusetts GOP gubernatorial candidate Brian Shortsleeve is a former Marine, MBTA chief administrator and acting general manager who just secured his place on the September Republican primary ballot along with opponent Mike Minogue. Shortsleeve has been calling on Minogue to debate him for months now ahead of the primary election, to which Minogue has brushed off his requests, instead challenging Gov. Healey herself to debate. Brian Shortsleeve will join us this evening on NightSide to take your calls and discuss the issues he’s prepared to tackle if elected governor!
No Inspections Required...For Now. In 2025, New Hampshire lawmakers passed a measure to eliminate their annual motor vehicle inspection requirement, effective Jan. 31, 2026. The vendor that had overseen the state’s vehicle inspections, Gordon-Darby Holdings Inc., challenged that measure, filing a lawsuit. The state was made aware by federal and state officials that repealing the inspection program without first obtaining the EPA’s approval regarding federal environmental law would violate the Clean Air Act. The program was repealed without approval first, leading to further legal proceedings and public confusion. What are your thoughts on eliminating annual motor vehicle inspections? NH House Majority Leader Rep. Jason Osborne will join us tonight to bring clarity to the topic!
