Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

The Boston Police Department announced Wednesday their participation in the 30 x 30 pledge – a national pledge to increase the number of women in police recruitment classes to 30% by 2030.The BPD is one of more than 325 departments across the country who have taken the pledge. Boston Mayor Michelle Wu said this will help the police department represent the community it protects.“The fact that nationwide, women make up just 12% of active duty officers and just 3% of leadership of departments is not only an equity issue, it is a public safety issue as well,” Wu said at a press conference Wednesday. “When it comes to assuring our residents are and feel safe in our city, those who serve must reflect the people in the neighborhoods that we serve.”

Another Hot, Humid Day On The Way

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

Editor’s Note: Tonight’s weather blog was written by meteorological intern Tyler Hughes.Today proved to be a classic hot New England summer day, with mostly sunny skies and temperatures climbing into the upper 80s and low 90s in the region. A few lingering spot showers are sticking around, but these will die off as the evening goes on. Although not all of us saw a high temperature above the 90 degree mark, the weather station out at Logan Airport reached 90 for the first time this year, climbing to a high of 91 this afternoon. As I mentioned briefly in the blog yesterday, the average first 90 degree day in Boston rolls around at the beginning of June. As a matter of fact, July 12 is the fifth latest first 90 degree day recorded at Logan Airport. The most recent later date in memory was the summer of 2015.Tomorrow is, for the most part, a rinse-and-repeat day, but we’ll turn the temperature down a few degrees and turn up the humidity. Although dew points will only r...

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

If state wildlife officials had the final say, Southie residents could now be cooling off at the L Street Beach behind the renovated Curley Center.But even with MassWildlife determining last week that beach access would not harm the threatened piping plovers, the city still has to complete its own review.“They don’t need any extra permissions because we have already issued our determination,” a MassWildlife spokesperson told the Herald on Wednesday. “As long as they follow their beach management plan, there is no other review on our end.”City officials say the Conservation Commission is scheduled to vote July 19 on the beach management plan, which outlines conditions the city needs to take for access not to have an adverse effect on the piping plover.One condition features “a qualified shorebird monitor” regularly monitoring the presence of the piping plover from April 1 through Aug. 31, with the areas of habitat delineated with fencing and warning signs by April 1, according to the...

Consumer Financial Protection Bureau unconstitutional, legal group tells high court

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

Bay State Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s brainchild is coming under attack.A Massachusetts-based civil rights organization has filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court arguing that the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is unconstitutional as established, too powerful, and must be reined in under congressional control.According to an amicus friend-of-court brief filed by the New England Legal Foundation with the high court, the fact that the agency wields such “extraordinary” power without needing to go through Congress for funding is plainly at odds with the law.“If there is an agency with such extraordinary power, they should be subjected to a higher level of judicial review, and where Congress has less of a role the judicial branch should have more of a role,” Dan Winslow, NELF president, told the Herald. “This agency has an extraordinary concentration of power without the usual congressional checks and balances.”The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is Warren’s ...

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

The Yankees are adding a patch to their pinstripes.Beginning July 21, the Yankees’ home and away jerseys will feature a Starr Insurance patch on their left sleeves, marking the first time the team’s famed uniform has incorporated such an advertisement. The team announced the move Wednesday by releasing images of Aaron Judge and Gerrit Cole in the new-look threads.The Yankees, whom Forbes valued at $7.1 billion in March, will get an average of $25 million per year from Starr, according to the Action Network’s Darren Rovell.

Published Thu, 14 Nov 2024 20:51:09 GMT

After turning pessimistic for the first time in years in May, confidence among the state’s employers stayed mostly flat in June, reflecting continued concern over inflation and ongoing struggles finding people to fill empty jobs.According to the monthly Business Confidence Index published by the Associated Industries of Massachusetts, business owners’ confidence rose just one-tenth of a point, from 49.6% to 49.7%.“Business confidence remained flat during June amid a resilient economy, stubborn inflation, a pause by the Federal Reserve and a shortage of workers across almost every industry,” the association said with the release of their index.In May, employers reported their faith in the economy had slipped to its lowest level since the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. This month’s essentially flat survey indicates that while the economy continues to stave off a recession, employers are worried a recent pause in interest rate hikes by the Federal Reserve will soon end and yet higher...
