With major unfinished legislative business, some Democrats in the State Senate got an early start Wednesday on Beacon Hill — on fundraising.
Senate President Karen Spilka enters Carrie Nation on the last day of the state Legislature's formal session.
Before heading up to the State House to make those decisions, some senators gathered at Carrie Nation, located at 11 Beacon Street. The fundraiser invitation, obtained by the News Service, listed Senate President Karen Spilka of Ashland as the special guest. "We're here to support our colleagues," Spilka told the News Service as she arrived at Carrie Nation just after 9:50 a.m.
"So we go into formal sessions at 11, and this is about helping our colleagues out," Cronin told the News Service when asked about the optics of attending a fundraiser in the thick of final formal sessions.
