Saturday morning, Tanisha Sullivan was in Mattapan Square, firing up several dozen volunteers to knock doors in support of her campaign for secretary of state. Motivating volunteers on a hot summer morning can be a bit of a lift, but Sullivan had help with U.S. Rep. Ayanna Pressley and state Rep. Russell Holmes rallying the crowd of volunteers.

State Rep. Nick Collins has filed an amendment to the House of Representatives Committee on Ways and Means budget proposal that would require all state agencies to ensure participation of minority and women-owned businesses in all phases of development projects involving state property.
