Mass. lawmakers approve $63B budget
Massachusetts lawmakers have approved a $63 billion budget for the upcoming fiscal year, showing an unusual level of agreement between Democratic leaders. The budget emphasizes maintaining existing programs, with adjustments to local aid distribution and the creation of a new commission to review the school funding formula, excluding the state's largest teachers' union. It also introduces measures for financial oversight of sheriff’s offices, funding new initiatives including a sports and entertainment fund, and policy updates on public safety and election procedures. The bill now awaits approval from Governor Maura Healey.
