Sen. Markey’s Republican Challenger O’Connor Says He Will Also Take On Climate Change
The man vying to oust Democrat Ed Markey from his Senate seat says the incumbent has spent too many decades in Washington and has too little to show for it.

WBUR’s Bob Oakes sat down with O’Connor to learn why he thinks he’s better suited than Markey to deliver real climate solutions in Washington.
