It looks like OP posted an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.nbcboston.com/news/local/deal-reached-in-woburn-to-end-teacher-strike-schools-will-be-open-monday/2964644/

Take a simple example.

You had $1000 in Mass taxes withheld from your pay in 2022. On your Federal return, you itemized deductions and claimed your $1000 of Mass tax as a deduction.

When you did your state return, you got a $100 refund.

The $100 is, indeed, just "getting your own money back" but you claimed $1000 and your net Mass tax was only $900.

In this example, the $100 refund would be taxable on your 2023 Federal return.
