REPRESENTATIVE LINDSAY SABADOSA, A VOICE FOR THOSE WHO HAVE NONE
Massachusetts House Representative Lindsay Sabadosa’ s path to politics probably started at the age of nine, when she held a protest march over the closing of her beloved town library. Yet it took a few more decades of working in the private sector before she launched her political career. While Representative Sabadosa takes up the flaming sword in a variety of arenas, she has a deep passion for criminal justice and prison reform, and in this episode speaks passionately about the House Bills she has launched, from changing the parole system for incarcerated elders to implementing an Act that will track how bail must be set, commensurate with a defendant’s economic means.
