Remember this post a few weeks ago noting that Joe Kennedy III’s campaign site seemed to be missing any statements about actual issues? Finally yesterday, JK3 took a step in the right direction. It’s not as robust as thisor this (or especially this) but it’s a start.
UPDATE: Joe Kennedy’s campaign web site dips a toe into addressing issues

Intellect, vision, and even a slight hint of passion. A step in the right direction.
I’d like to see Joe make gun control one of the cornerstone issues of his campaign. He’s somewhat uniquely positioned for that, as many of us remember the tragic and senseless deaths of JFK and RFK. Guns are a plague upon our nation. Hardly a day goes by when we don’t read or hear about another gun related horror. Taking a strong stand on gun control would be received very well in this district, and put his likely opponent in an uncomfortable position.
Yes, a strong stand on gun control in a population increasingly against gun control, as in it’s classic form it pretty clearly DOES NOT work and does nothing but disarm and tie the hands of the law abiding. This is a beyond partisan issue throughout the country, it is pretty much only the dems (and republicans for that matter) in the northeast that fail to see this.
