Our Lady of Peace in Truro

 Martha's Peaceful Reasons for Running!

"As a country, we face crises on multiple fronts. The emotional, personal, and financial costs of the Iraq war and war in Afghanistan are devastating and consuming, the crippling upward spiral of health care costs leaves quality care inaccessible to over 47 million Americans and are unsustainable for the future, and the insecurity and economic loss caused by last fall’s Wall Street meltdown has left too many Americans without jobs, homes, or at the risk of losing one or both.

As a state Attorney General, I believe I have a special perspective on the root causes of this economic meltdown and some of the actions required to turn our economy around. Being on the ground in Massachusetts, I saw the early signs of the mortgage foreclosure crisis, and we worked quickly to issue emergency regulations to stop some of the most damaging lending practices. Our work holding the big banks and Wall Street accountable continues to this day, and I believe there are practices and regulations that, if implemented, could help prevent a similar crisis from returning."
