What's the future of Mayor Michelle Wu's employee vaccine mandate in Boston?

Boston Mayor Michelle Wu was dealt a blow to her employee vaccine mandate this week, when a court temporarily halted it from going into effect. But some argue she's still winning the bigger battle. Adam Reilly is joined by the Bay State Banner's Yawu Miller and UMass Dartmouth's Shannon Jenkins on that, their disappointment with the latest voting rights legislation in the State House, Governor Charlie Baker's final state of the state and another new candidate in the race to replace Baker: Republican businessman and self-described moderate Chris Doughty. In the age of Trump, will that pitch still work?

And nearly two years into the pandemic, many parents and caregivers of kids under five are feeling left behind and, in some cases, forgotten. What more could policymakers be doing to help them stay afloat — both economically and psychologically? Adam is joined by GBH News' Craig LeMoult and Gladys Vega, of La Colaborativa, to discuss.
