The city of Cambridge will announce later today that it will begin taking applications in June for a new guaranteed income program, giving $500 a month to families with children who make 250% of the federal poverty line or lower (roughly $46,000 a year or under for a family of 2).

Watching EEAAO win reminds me that I have a month to file and pay my taxes.
