Catch up on the biggest news of the week, including the buzz over delivery drones, the states quick action against a nursing home provider following the Globe's slow burn article on its performance, and a dive into two of the state's nine ballot questions.

This week, four members of our congressional delegation wrote a letter to Amazon and the FAA. They want to slow down Amazon's planned drone delivery program in part of MetroWest and Worcester. There was also major backlash this week against one of the state's biggest nursing home providers after an investigation from the Boston Globe. Finally, Hasbro told 587 of its Rhode Island employees to either move to Boston or lose their jobs. WBUR's Tiziana Dearing also sat down with Tufts University's Evan Horowitz to talk about ballot questions three and seven. Voters must decide if they prefer all-party ballots and if they want to override local zoning rules to build more single-family homes.  WBUR's got your ultimate (and simple) study guide on all nine ballot questions.
