SPRINGFIELD — Calling the results an illustration of “geographic politics,” Springfield City Councilor and local attorney Michael Fenton failed in his second attempt for the Eighth District seat on the Governor’s Council.
This is the second year of the 2025-2026 legislative session. Typically, the first year of the session sees a flurry of activity, with about 7,000 bills filed. State Sen. Jake Oliveira filed more than 700 bills himself in 2025.
On the latest episode of “So That Reminds Me,” state Sen. Jake Oliveira sat down with co-hosts Chris Maza and Tyler Garnet to talk about everything going on in the Hampden, Hampshire and Worcester district.
Massachusetts’s new legislative session has begun, and state Sen. Jake Oliveira has his eye on several issues he plans to address over this two-year term. Oliveira, who was first elected to the state Senate in 2022 and reelected in November 2024, said he wants to continue to tackle education, transportation and healthcare.
