Springfield's True Value distribution center will close by year's end. This closure will result in the layoff of all 62 employees at the facility. A staffing agency issued a WARN notice to state and local officials. Layoffs are scheduled to begin in October and continue through December. The affected workers are not unionized.

Baystate Health confirmed recent layoffs. The health system faces a $60 million budget shortfall. Patients are delaying non-urgent and elective medical procedures. Insurance changes, economic instability, and inflation are contributing factors. Cuts were made across Baystate Health and Health New England to reduce administrative layers.

Springfield just voted to unionize with USW.
Congratulations to everyone there, I hope the other non-union plants soon follow suit.
