Most of the people elected in Massachusetts have a few (or more) terms until their belts, but there was one new face, Dan Koh, who filled the District 6 seat Seth Moulton vacated when he chose to run for Senate.

There, the Worcester Telegram reported this week that the Kraft Group has proposed building the fourth largest data center in the country. Per the proposal, it would include 10 buildings canvassing 250,000 square feet each, with the first two buildings opening in 2029 and another two opening each year until the project is complete in 2033.
