    As Americans struggle to get by, this is what their representatives are focused on

    Not a ballot measure on stopping AI data centers or the overreach of the police surveillance state

    No the real issue to be put to the the ballot is whether they should take away your marijuana and capture more people for the for profit prison labor camps

      To be fair this is not an initiative brought by representatives. All one has to do to get a question into the ballot in MA is to collect enough signatures. There were some accusations of shady stuff going on during signature collection though. Some that people thought they were signing a ballot measure on something else.
