Advocates press Healey to scrap Hanscom expansion

MassPort’s Board of Directors is the Big Decider here.  So we direct a plea to them: It’s not too late to do the right thing. 

Otherwise, you put MassPort at risk of becoming a pariah, a poster child for reckless disregard of the public interest by a governmental body.  If 27 — or 18 — or just a dozen — of these hangars get built, the agency will never come back from the reputational damage.  Going ahead would be an unforced error, one of the biggest ones in modern Massachusetts public policy.
