Supreme Court Keeps Key Tool For Fighting Housing Bias

Among the major cases decided by the U.S. Supreme Court in its just concluded term was a housing discrimination case from Texas.  The court upheld the ability of individuals to challenge seemingly neutral government regulatory actions to determine if the rules violated the Federal Fair Housing Act.  WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill spoke with Meris Bergquist, executive director of the Massachusetts Fair Housing Center about the significance of the court’s decision.

The record-setting tenure of Springfield Mayor Domenic Sarno. The 2011 tornado and its recovery that remade the largest city in Western Massachusetts. The fallout from the deadly COVID outbreak at the Holyoke Soldiers Home. Those are just a few of the thousands and thousands of stories WAMC’s Pioneer Valley Bureau Chief Paul Tuthill has covered for WAMC in his nearly 17 years with the station.
