Your Wednesday evening update on Salem news
Good evening, Salem.
Our crew is preparing to take the stage at the Elsinore Theatre tonight for a town hall on Salem’s proposed wage tax, which will be on the ballot Nov. 3.
We hope you’ll join us to hear supporters and opponents of the tax make their case and field questions from our reporters, as well as you in the audience. Below, we’ve included a roundup of some of our coverage of the issue if you want to read up.
If you can’t make it in person, you can always watch the livestream here.
Here’s more of today’s news. Catch all of our latest reports on our website anytime.
