Healey administration's pivotal week.

Massachusetts Governor Maura Healey has had a busy week, installing a new MBTA general manager, taking on full responsibility for fixing the failing transit system, and propelling Massachusetts to the forefront of the fight to protect access to medication abortion. Healey also faces challenges from top House lawmakers over spending and tax-relief plans, setting up new dynamics and discord between Democrats on Beacon Hill that could jeopardize some of her biggest campaign promises. She enters a new and more challenging phase of her tenure backed by an increasingly diverse Cabinet, with new positions focused on climate, veterans affairs, and housing.
