Abortion-supporting state Representative Tami Gouveia (D-Acton), who is no fan of U.S. Senator Mitt Romney (R-Utah), may end up running to be lieutenant governor of Massachusetts.
The second-term Democrat has been calling her colleagues in the Massachusetts House of Representatives in recent days telling them she plans to run for the post instead of for re-election in the 14th Middlesex District, according to State House News Service.
Editor's Note: Jim Lyons, the chairman of the Massachusetts Republican Party, sent out a written statement through the party late Friday, June 4, 2021 addressing calls for a member of the Massachusetts State Republican Committee to resign over email messages she sent expressing disapproval of the adoption of two children by a same-sex couple, one of whom is running for Congress as a Republican.
The statement appears below, in full. The link is in the original.
