About this episode
The episode discusses Barney Frank's final message to the democratic party, the proposed rent control measure in Massachusetts, and Governor Maura Healey's unpopularity.

This week on Say More’s political panel, Opinion writer Joan Vennochi, and Globe Ideas writer Abdallah Fayyad discuss the salience of Frank’s final message, and what democrats can learn from him. With Say More host Anna Kusmer, they then discuss the problem with the proposed rent control ballot measure in Mass, and end with a reflection on Governor Maura Healey and her growing unpopularity.
