These expectations were only heightened by the presence of doughnuts and a beautiful view of Boston and the Charles River from our spacious meeting room. Needless to say, Mr. Cunha did not disappoint. Born and raised in Somerville, Mr. Cunha attended Boston College where he interned at the State House, inspiring him to go into public service. After college he worked in sales and marketing for ten years where he learned valuable interpersonal skills and was given the opportunity to earn his MBA at Bentley University.

  • S. 2325 Lead Sponsor: Senator Sonia Chang-Díaz
    AN ACT MODERNIZING THE FOUNDATION BUDGET FOR THE 21ST CENTURY S. 2325 Lead Sponsor: Senator Sonia Chang-Díaz THE PROBLEM: Every day, students across Massachusetts walk into schools that are facing dire challenges. Over the last decade, school districts have been forced to make difficult cuts year after year. Classrooms across the state have lost critical services and programs, including social- emotional supports like counselors, wrap-around services, resources like technology and books, professional development, arts classes, and preschool programs. On top of these cuts, Massachusetts has one of the worst achievement gaps in the United States – ranking 48th nationally for the achievement gap between affluent and poor students. It wasn’t supposed to be this way. In 1993, Massachusetts passed the Education Reform Act— which established the “Foundation Budget” to make sure all school districts could provide their students with a quality education. Unfortunately, in the 25 years since, we have done little to update the formula, and it’s now outdated, hampering districts’ efforts to provide each student with the quality education they deserve. The 2015 Foundation Budget Review Commission (FBRC) found that health care and special education costs have far surpassed assumptions built into the original formula. The FBRC also found that the original formula drastically understated the resources necessary to close achievement gaps for low-income and English Language Learner students. In all, the bipartisan commission of experts found that Massachusetts is underestimating the cost of education by $1-2 billion every year THE SOLUTION: To make good on our bedrock promise of providing every student in Massachusetts with equal access to quality education, we need to significantly revise the foundation budget formula.

  • Minimizing Wages & Worker Health
    MINIMIZING WAGES & WORKER HEALTH How the ‘Other NRA’ Stymies Critical Progress in Massachusetts APRIL 2021 One Fair Wage Corporate Accountability EXECUTIVE SUMMARY MINIMIZING WAGES & WORKER HEALTH takes a critical look at how the Massachusetts Restaurant Association (MRA), the Massachusetts affiliate of the powerful National Restau- rant Association (NRA), has undermined workers’ rights and public health in the lead-up to and during the COVID-19 pandemic. This white paper does so by examining lobbying efforts in the state of Massachusetts, where progress on worker pay, paid sick leave, and workplace safety has been stymied by the NRA’s state affiliate at the behest of leading NRA members such as McDonald’s Corporation, The Coca-Cola Company, Darden Restaurants, and more.1,2,3,4 Congress is currently considering the Raise the Wage Act, which would increase the minimum wage to $15 for all workers in the United States and phase out the subminimum wage for tipped workers, which has been stuck at $2.13 for the past three decades.5 But Massachusetts need not wait for federal action. State legislators have recently re-filedAn Act requiring one fair wage (S.D. 1811/H.D. 3462), which would eliminate subminimum wages and allow for tip sharing among back of house workers, thereby addressing the occupational segregation common in the restaurant industry. With this momentum, we have an opportunity to make real progress for workers’ rights. If we want to reform the unjust food system and protect the health and well-being of the workers on the front lines of the COVID-19 pandemic, then it’s time to start calling on policymakers to reject any support from the NRA and its state affiliates and pass the commonsense policies required.
