MA Congressional Delegation Pushes Back On MBTA Cuts
Resume
Here is the Radio Boston rundown for March 18. Tiziana Dearing is our host.
- In an open letter to MBTA General Manager Steve Poftak, the state's full slate of senators and representatives are asking for information on why the T is moving forward with service cuts to train, subway, and bus lines, despite a new infusion of federal assistance from the newly-signed American Rescue plan. We discuss with Rep. Steven Lynch.
- Usually when we speak to Mendon author Michael Tougias, it's about his latest best-selling book of heroism at sea. Many of his 30-plus books are full of adventure, danger, heroism and sacrifice. That's also the case with his latest title, but the focus is much closer to home: his life and family. We speak to Toguias about his new memoir, "The Waters Between Us: A Boy, A Father, Outdoor Misadventures And The Healing Power Of Nature."
- With fans set to return to the TD Garden next week, LeBron James becoming a part-owner of the Red Sox, and the Patriots dominating the early days of NFL free agency, we Check the Score with Radio Boston's Chris Citorik.
