In her opening statement tonight for the State of the Commonwealth address, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey states, “250 years ago this April, on a… bridge in Concord, the farmers, tradesman and shop keepers of Massachusetts took a stand. They risked everything for the right to self-governance. They started a revolution that gave us our country. This is our legacy. It’s more than history; it’s who we are.” #visitmassachusetts #concordproud #govhealey #concordnow
