“On the night before Thanksgiving, two families are receiving this tragic news. My heart goes out to the loved ones of the two National Guardsmen who were shot in Washington DC today and I’m praying for their recovery. Our service members take an oath to protect us, and they deserve better than this type of senseless violence. I want all men and women serving across the country, including our Massachusetts National Guard, to know that they are in my thoughts today and every day, and they have the full support and gratitude of our entire state.”
