📰 News we're reading

• South Shore News...letter: The Override Word Shows Up Early This Year (southshore.news) — Plymouth officials have sent an $8.4 million capital package to Town Meeting while warning the town may be just two to three years away from needing an operational override, with free cash already below policy targets and a projected $14.5 million deficit by 2032. The newsletter also tracks neighboring South Shore debates over school roofs, public safety buildings, and regional water constraints that could indirectly affect Plymouth residents.
   

• A Message of Hope Across New England (billygraham.org subscription) — A multi-week Christian "Declaration of Dependence" tour has just kicked off on Plymouth's historic waterfront, drawing crowds to hear evangelist Will Graham's message about faith and hope. From that launch in Plymouth, the tour has already moved through New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, with volunteers counseling attendees and more New England stops planned in the coming weeks.
