For Massachusetts residents, there is now only one state left with more relaxed coronavirus travel restrictions. It also happens to be the one state in the country outside of North America.
Over the weekend, the Massachusetts Department of Public health removed Vermont from its list of lower-risk states when it comes to contracting coronavirus. Now, like 48 other states, people traveling to and from Vermont are supposed to fill out a travel form and quarantine when they arrive in Massachusetts, unless they provide a negative coronavirus test upon arriving to Massachusetts. This means Hawaii is the only state left exempt from that rule, as MSN reports.
An abortion expansion amendment to the state's budget bill has drawn immense opposition in Massachusetts from church-going Christians, with a wide-ranging coalition of religious leaders signing their names to a letter urging it to be defeated.
Earlier this month, New Boston Post reported that more than 300 Massachusetts pastors signed a letter addressed to Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker making their opinion known. The number now exceeds 400.
