The League of Women Voters Massachusetts focuses on many matters, namely getting people to vote on election days. This year in Springfield, the LWVMA put energy into getting residents registered to vote, including those who fell of the rolls.
Holyoke
Massachusetts new state-of-the-art Veterans Home in Holyoke was unveiled Thursday, marking a major milestone in the transformation of veterans care in the state, officials say.
