Maura Healey

As to marriage equality, we'll see. You know, it's something that I think has been, at least in Massachusetts, I mean, we've had marriage equality for 20 years now. Many states have had it for some time as well. And the idea that a court overnight would take away that right, take away—remember, these are state marriage licenses.

These aren't federal marriage licenses, which is why I wanted the case to begin with, the DOMA case. You know, it shouldn't happen as a matter of law. But imagine the destruction to families, right? So I hope that doesn't happen.

You know, to me, it's just so sad that we are talking about such an infinitesimal portion of the population. But Trump and the Republicans intentionally made that into a mountain, right? We're talking about such a small sliver of the population. By the way, on athletics, it's even smaller as a percentage, but they did it incredibly well.

But that's a real thing, right? Aren't people talking about it? He's got a group talking about a third term. Are you worried about that? I am. I am worried about that. You have to think about it. I mean, I have a pretty sober view of the situation, you know? I mean, we lived through Trump 1. We're on to Trump 2.

I was talking to a historian the other day who I called on President's Day to ask for some guidance to help me. provide a context for this moment that we're in. And she said to me, I can't, we've never seen anything like this before in American history. So you asked me that question and my legit genuine answer is, yeah, I'm worried about that.

I'm worried about what they're doing in terms of looking to undermine future elections. Look at what Trump is proposing with the Postal Service and wanting to take it over, wanting to privatize it, right? The other day in the governor's meeting, he told us all we should be working by paper ballot. And, you know, there's a reason they are doing that.

I empathize with that position. Now, is it all attributable to one president and his team and his administration in the form of Joe Biden? No, I'm not suggesting that. OK, but there are things that happened that could have happened that should have happened. It didn't happen. And here we are. So I do this job. I became governor because I care about people. I want to serve people.

I want to see the people in Massachusetts served. My colleagues I work with and have the privilege of working with, the Democratic governors, believe in America, believe in the needs, the wants of America. of everyday Americans. So it's upsetting to be here, having this conversation with you in this moment. And I too ask, how the hell did we get here? Governor Healy, thank you very much.
