Our Opinion: Legislature should leave public notices alone
We are concerned about legislation on Beacon Hill that threatens the public's right to know and local journalism.
A handful of bills before the state House of Representatives (H.2243, H.2315, H.2323, H.4138 and H.4244) pertain to public notices, which notify residents about municipal or community business, such as public hearings and real estate sales.
These notices appear in newspapers, including our Classifieds section, and serve as a vital source of information for our readers.
Advocates for ideas and draws conclusions based on the interpretation of facts and data.
