The state of the commonwealth is strong, & its healthcare system is one of its greatest strengths.
We thank @massgovernor.bsky.social for underscoring the special change that #Massachusetts healthcare makes possible for patients & communities – change that the rest of the nation can follow. #MASOTC
This is Team Massachusetts at work!💪
Incredibly proud to be teammates with @massgovernor.bsky.social!

Governor Healey at SOTC.
Governor Healey at SOTC.
250 years after Massachusetts brought a new idea of freedom into the world, our nation faces new tests. Again, we will lead.
We’ll show up with the stability and common sense America needs in this moment.
We'll rekindle those sparks of patriotic fire and show the way forward. #MASOTC
“Never Despair,” Sam Adams wrote to a friend during the Siege of Boston. “Where there is a spark of patriotic fire, we will rekindle it.”
“Never despair” is a good message for this moment. The year ahead will bring more challenges, no doubt.
But we will stand strong. #MASOTC
When Donald Trump attacked the CFPB I filed a series of bills to protect MA consumers from predatory practices, including banning medical debt from credit reports. Grateful for @massgovernor.bsky.social ‘s leadership & prioritizing protecting patients in the #MASOTC. #MALeg #MAPoli
250 years ago, we started a Revolution.
Today, while some turn their backs on liberty, Massachusetts stays free.
Because of that, the state of our Commonwealth is strong. #MASOTC
President Trump is sending ICE agents into states by the thousands. A woman has been killed. Innocent people detained. Parents ripped away from their children.
I was a prosecutor and AG, and I can tell you: none of this makes us safer. It needs to stop. #MASOTC
Anyone who pays their energy bill has probably noticed charges on charges.
Enough is enough. My administration is taking them off.
I directed the utilities to justify every line on your bill. And I’ll oppose any big rate hike they ask for. #MASOTC
Max and Chelsea Ritcey.
When Trump cut off SNAP, we raised $7 million for food pantries. Local heroes Max & Chelsea Ritcey opened their kitchens and hearts to feed their neighbors.
This year, my budget increases funding for food banks – and we'll make sure folks with SNAP get the benefits they need. #MASOTC
Grateful to Fall River Fire Chief Jeff Bacon, his firefighters and all the first responders for the lives they saved that night. #MASOTC
Trooper Charles at SOTC.
In December, State Police Trooper Rassan Charles rescued a man from the Tobin Bridge. For hours in the cold, Trooper Charles told him he wasn’t alone – and saved his life.
Massachusetts has the best law enforcement in the country and we're going to support them. #MASOTC
Cooz, I know you’re watching, and I can’t wait to get out to Worcester and drive over the new Bob Cousy Pass together. #MASOTC
Governor Healey at lectern.
The story of America started in Massachusetts. For 250 years, we’ve led the way for freedom and progress.
Today, we still stand up for each other — and stand against new attacks on our freedom.
That revolutionary spirit is more than our history. It's part of who we are. #MASOTC
Just saw #HampdenDA Anthony Gullini leave the House chamber.(He has attended before.) #mapoli #masotc
. @massgovernor.bsky.social Healey quotes Sam Adams from 1776 when Boston was under seige. "Never despair" he wrote a friend. #mapoli #masotc
After discussing police and fire heroes, @MassGovernor mentions the state of the Holyoke and Chelsea Soldiers' Homes and the prosecution she undertook against Holyoke's leadership. Now, she says it has a perfect rating from the VA. #mapoli #masotc
Governor Healey with veteran.
The veterans who lost their lives to COVID at the Holyoke Soldiers Home deserved so much better. When I took office, I made it my mission to turn things around.
Today, both the Chelsea and Holyoke homes are rebuilt, fully licensed, and some of the best in the country. #MASOTC
Governor Healey's actions to cut costs.
Across America, families can't afford what used to be within reach—a home, health care, a good education.
You work hard. That should pay off.
At tonight’s State of the Commonwealth, I announced new steps to make life easier and more affordable for people in Massachusetts. #MASOTC
I’ve been to community college graduations where students get their associates degree on the same day they get their high school diploma.
I want as many young people as possible to have that opportunity. I’m setting a new goal: 100,000 Early College students in 10 years. #MASOTC
Governor Healey's actions on education.
For the first time in 8 years, Massachusetts schools are now ranked #1 on the Nation’s Report Card in every single category.
From early ed to college, we’re taking action to make our students are always top of their class. #MASOTC
Governor Healey with apprentice.
Apprenticeships are a powerful tool. They're paid, hands-on training opportunities that lead to great careers.
Tonight, I’m setting a new goal: 100,000 apprentices over 10 years in the trades, health care, tech, advanced manufacturing —wherever our businesses need talent. #MASOTC
Massachusetts has more going for it than any other state. That’s why LEGO, Hasbro, and Alnylam are growing here.
And why TransMedics turned down New Hampshire to build a HQ in Somerville.
When it comes to competing for jobs – my bet’s always on Massachusetts. #MASOTC
Cancelling a subscription should be as easy as signing up for it.
Let’s make @massago.bsky.social's junk fee regulations the law – and take a hard look at all the hidden fees and fine print that cost you money. #MASOTC
Governor Healey with healthcare worker.
No more asking permission from your insurance company for routine and necessary care. If your doctor says you need medication or a procedure, you get it.
I'm announcing another action to fight high health care costs: banning medical debt from showing up on your credit report. #MASOTC
Governor Healey is cutting energy bills.
Families need real relief from high energy bills – and they're going to get it.
In 2025, we sent $220 million back to consumers and filed legislation to unlock new power and cut costs.
This February and March, we'll cut your electric bills by 25% and your gas bills by 10%. #MASOTC
Cutting costs and common sense… deep dedication and real energy from our Governor Maura Healey @massgovernor.bsky.social at tonight’s State of the Commonwealth #MASOTC #mapoli
For too many families, buying that first home is one of the toughest challenges they face.
So, I’m expanding the program that gives you $25,000 towards your downpayment – and another that lowers your interest rates and saves you money over the life of your loan. #MASOTC
Governor Healey's actions to build more housing.
To bring down rents and home prices, we need to build more, and build faster.
Already, we’ve got 100,000 built or in the pipeline – and we’re picking up the pace. #MASOTC
