Fresh on the heels of a legislative report that identified ways Massachusetts could promote the employment of people with physical or intellectual disabilities, Gov. Charlie Baker s latest budget proposal revived his recommendation to establish a tax credit for companies that hire people with disabilities.
Policy sections of the governor s budget call for a $2,000 tax credit for certain businesses that employ an individual with a disability for a minimum of 18 consecutive months. Budget chief Michael Heffernan said the administration filed the same proposal a year ago. It would become effective for hires on July 1, 2021 or later and the credit would kick in for the tax year starting Jan. 1, 2023.

Opposition parties criticise content of State apology

Opposition politicians have criticised the content and timing of the State apology to survivors of mother-and-baby homes delivered by the Taoiseach in the Dáil.
Sinn Féin leader Mary Lou McDonald said survivors have waited a long time to hear an apology, but it was untrue to say it was simply a failure of empathy and compassion in Irish society. More profoundly it was an abuse of power, an abuse of authority. It was a brutality inflicted on women and girls, and on the poor in particular, she said.
