    I welcomed a group of first year students from Elms College to my office and we had a lively discussion about Congress, politics and current events. I enjoyed hearing the students' perspectives on a wide range of issues.

       This study seems to provide proof as to the efficacy of automatic retirement savings, much like your proposed Auto IRA. Keep up the good fight!

    Yesterday I joined Mayor Sarno and Springfield city officials to show Senator-Elect Elizabeth Warren the damage following last week's explosion. Elizabeth and I will be reliable federal partners for every community across our districts.

    I was pleased to welcome and introduce Senator-Elect Elizabeth Warren to Springfield as she thanked volunteers from across western Massachusetts. We discussed the road ahead and the importance of a strong federal partnership to help our region.

    This morning I joined my colleagues on the House Ways and Means Committee to welcome Professor Vital Moreira- Chairman of the European Parliament Committee on International Trade- for the Delegation for Relations with the United States. This was the 73rd annual EU/US Interparliamentary Meeting and Transatlantic Legislators' Dialogue Meeting.

    This morning I stopped by the Springfield Republican to pick up my copy of "The Irish Legacy: A History of the Irish in Western Massachusetts." I was happy to sign a few books for distribution. This thoroughly reported historical account is a tribute to the significant role the Irish played in our region.

    Following yesterday's devastating explosion in downtown Springfield, I am reaching out to federal agencies for appropriate responses. I am committed to helping businesses remain in downtown Springfield and helping with the rebuilding process.

    As we gather with loved ones today on Thanksgiving, I ask everyone to take a moment and remember the tragic date of November 22, 1963. 49 years ago today our President John F. Kennedy was shot in Dallas. Let us never forget the generations ...
    President Kennedy inspired - and continues to inspire - with his zeal. I am one of those who counts President Kennedy as a role model; I will always remember watching him speak on the steps of Springfield City Hall the day before he won the presidential election. This afternoon I spoke as part of Springfield's annual memorial ceremony - the longest running such service in America- in front of our eternal flame. We are a better nation and a better world because of President Kennedy.

    The successful renovation of Union Station has been a priority of mine for more than 30 years. I have always believed the restoration of this iconic Springfield landmark had the ability to transform the north blocks of downtown, our city, and our region; a renewed Union Station will bring a world class transportation center to western Massachusetts.

    "This is one of the most significant landmarks in all New England," said U.S. Rep. Richard Neal, D-Springfield.

    In today's Springfield Republican I editorialized on the accomplishments of my friend and mentor, George McGovern. Because of George - a true patriotic, dedicated public servant - our nation and our world is a better place.

    At 22 years old, George McGovern signed up for World War II. Always the realist, he said Hitler was a “monster” and needed to be confronted
