An elite cabal of big-money donors, a list that includes real estate developers, lobbyists, and others more dedicated to currying influence on Beacon Hill than advancing Republican principles, has effectively put a bounty on my head: If I resign the chairmanship, they'll donate a combined $1 million to the party.
I'm disappointed and saddened to report that Governor Charlie Baker has sided with these elite donors and continues to turn his back on people like you who represent the backbone of the Massachusetts Republican Party.
Almost all of these donors haven't given the party so much as a dime since I was first elected chairman in 2019. In fact, most of them have given more to Democrats than to Republicans.
The power-brokers want to cancel me because my staff and I are working overtime to get tried-and-true Republicans elected to the state Legislature.
