Pretty Cool
Sometimes you think you know a person only to find out that there's a whole side of them you never imagined. If you know anything about the House, then you know Mark O'Brien. Mark handles the bills for the House Dems, and arguably knows more about the process and the law than a lot of the Reps.But last week, Mark told me about a project that he operates called Pretty City-Springfield. It's a not-for-profit operation that does something basic but really important.
To quote from the website:
MISSION STATEMENT
PrettyCity-Springfield will clean up litter, trash, abandoned items (chairs, sofas, mattresses, televisions) and dispose of them, properly.
