Massachusetts is one of the least-smiley states, but one local city is still grinning from ear-to-ear. @wbznewsradio

Congratulations @robyn4senate on a hard fought win! Over the coming weeks I will do all that I can to make sure Robyn is elected in November. I look forward to working with her to ensure a smooth transition for the First #Worcester District. #mapoli
Robyn Kennedy has won the Democratic primary for Worcester’s 1st District State Senate seat. She beat Worcester Mayor Joe Petty, who just conceded @GBHNews.

The fight for reproductive justice will continue long after I have left office, and I am grateful for my Massachusetts Senate colleagues who will carry on this fight. You are all on the frontlines. We are counting on you. #mapoli #roevwade

Today, in response to the US Supreme Court ruling overturning Roe v Wade, I signed an executive order to protect access to reproductive health care services in the Commonwealth. Read the executive order: bit.ly/3QKSzLL

Abortion rights are protected in Massachusetts, but this decision will cause irreparable harm across the country. I am devastated. #mapoli #roevwade

BREAKING: The Supreme Court just reversed nearly 50 years of precedent and overturned Roe v. Wade, ending the federal constitutional right to abortion. We won't deny what a horrible moment this is. Half of the states are expected to ban abortion.

Sen. Harriette Chandler calls this a "brilliant" amendment: "We have a right, we have a responsibility to safeguard the people who not only get their care in Massachusetts, but those who give that care in Massachusetts. We’ve always done that, and that’s what we’re doing again."
