Health care workers do so much to care for our communities.
I’m standing with the interns and residents at Mass General Brigham fighting for a fair contract, and I encourage both parties to keep coming to the table and bargaining in good faith so patients get the care they need.

Is there a more joyless team in the association than the Mavericks? Mercenaries up and down the roster. Complainer-Luka, antisemetic Kyrie. Klay was too toxic for the Warriors (a team that has Draymond on the roster). Obviously talented and true contender but just the least likable basketball team.
