Boston — Today, Governor Maura Healey, Speaker of the House Ron Mariano and Senate President Karen Spilka issue the following statement on the vandalism at the Massachusetts State House last night:  

“We are deeply disturbed to learn about vandalism at the State House overnight. The State House is a revered building steeped in history, and staff works hard to keep it in pristine condition for employees and visitors alike. There is absolutely no excuse for vandalism, at the State House or anywhere. We are grateful to the Massachusetts State Police and their local, state and federal partners for their quick response and efforts to identify those responsible.”
