Massachusetts deserves a governor focused on results, not excuses.
We can lower the cost of living, grow jobs, cut taxes, and finally audit the waste, fraud, and abuse.
The choice is clear. It’s time for a new kind of governor.
During my campaign, I consistently pledged that I would support the Republican nominee for Governor. @MikeMinogueABMD will be our nominee and I support his candidacy.
I believe Mike Minogue is running for office because of a genuine calling to serve. Mike has the most impressive business experience of any candidate in Massachusetts: during his tenure as CEO of Abiomed, the company helped hundreds of thousands of patients and grew to employ thousands of people, ultimately being sold to Johnson & Johnson for $17 billion. Massachusetts is heading in the wrong direction and is last in the nation in job growth. As a proven job creator and entrepreneur, Mike has the experience to get the state back on track. I applaud Mike's commitment to serving others through his work in education and healthcare, and his support for veterans.
In the 40 days since the MassGOP convention, I've watched Brian Shortsleeve refer to the party grassroots as "insiders," "a clown show," and a "tiny group of people with a record of picking losers." This is a disingenuous flip-flop from the admiration Shortsleeve claimed to have for delegates during caucus season. Shortsleeve has run an overwhelmingly negative and dishonest campaign - including repeated, false attacks about my public service under a Republican Governor, as well as wildly changing explanations for his past political donations and party affiliations. Shortsleeve’s sole public service experience in Massachusetts - managing the MBTA for two years a decade ago - is not compelling. Shortsleeve has a decision to make about whether to continue his campaign given the lack of public support for his candidacy, but whatever his choice, Mike Minogue will be the 2026 Republican nominee for Governor.
When Republicans work together, Republicans win. When we win, Massachusetts wins. Mike Minogue is the only remaining Republican with a chance to defeat Governor Healey. We can count on Mike to run a positive, issues-driven campaign, which will be required to unseat an incumbent Democratic Governor. It's time to unite behind him.
Massachusetts is going down the wrong path, but it doesn't have to be this way.
It's time we elect a new kind of governor who solves problems and leads with compassion and common sense. As governor, I will bring a blueprint to restore Accountability, Affordability, Opportunity, and Keep our communities safe. AAOK
People are leaving Massachusetts because it’s becoming harder and harder to afford a life here. High taxes, rising costs, and overregulation are pushing families, workers, and businesses out of the state they love. It's time for a new kind of Governor to do the audit, get rid of waste and fraud, bring down costs, and grow opportunity here in Massachusetts.
Patients First wasn’t just a slogan. It defined our culture. As Governor, I’ll bring that same leadership philosophy and put the people of Massachusetts first.
That’s how we’ll make Massachusetts the best place for you to live, work, and raise a family.
I’ve built companies, created lifesaving products, and grown jobs. I know what it takes to innovate, manufacture, and compete in Massachusetts because I’ve done it.
As Governor, I’ll retain and recruit entrepreneurs and businesses to Massachusetts and reduce the government red tape that slows growth, drives up costs, and pushes innovation out of our state.
If you are an entrepreneur in Massachusetts, THANK YOU! I'd love to hear more about what you've created and how we can make more companies "Made in Massachusetts"
Today, we honor the brave men and women who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
We remember their courage.
And we recommit ourselves to building a country worthy of their sacrifice.
We are last in private job growth AND second worst in debt per person.
Massachusetts is at a tipping point. We need a new kind of governor who knows how to grow jobs, manage a budget, and get our Commonwealth back on track.
We are going to win the next election for Governor because:
2.3M people voted for the Audit - we need 1.5M to win Governor position
Majority of the Commonwealth do not want illegal immigrants getting $$ free right to shelter, cash cards, free healthcare and free education- while citizens struggle to pay their energy and healthcare bills and taxes.
Majority of voters, (65% unenrolled/ independent voters), want a political outsider to solve the problems on accountability, affordability, opportunity with jobs and keep communities safe.
We have the financial resources to defeat an incumbent Democrat Governor that has been raising money for 4 years!
Amazing that @agenturban poll done before the MA GOP convention was 72% of his listeners for Mike Minogue and we got 70.4% of the convention voters! We are on message and Built to Win in November. AAOK
Reporters & Media- do your job !
ASK Maura Healey if she will opt in to the Federal Scholarship Tax credit? It could be a billion dollars in educational grants for 80% of parents with kids in school. She can OPT in now.
Massachusetts should be the best place to live, work, and raise a family. Mike Minogue's blueprint for Massachusetts is to restore Accountability, Affordability, Opportunity, and Keep Communities Safe.
A quarter of young people are planning to leave Massachusetts.
Why? Housing costs, rent, jobs, safety.
So yeah… maybe things aren’t as “on track” as Governor Maura Healey keeps saying.

We are built to win!
We have the support, the momentum, and the resources to take on Maura Healey and win. People across Massachusetts are stepping up because they want a leader who will solve problems and bring down costs. AAOK
The governor needs to care more about the people than they hate the other political party.
Massachusetts doesn’t need more party politics. We need a leader who will solve problems and put the best interest of the people first.
Our next generation of entrepreneurs and employees are leaving Massachusetts.
“Further north, Boston is struggling to retain its next generation of workers. A 2026 Young Residents Survey from the Greater Boston Chamber of Commerce Foundation, released in April, revealed that 26% of residents aged 20 to 30 plan to leave the area within the next five years.
Of those planning to move, nearly half are looking to exit Massachusetts entirely, with a majority eyeing the Southeast and Southwest. High housing costs remain the primary driver for those planning to leave.
The trend is part of a larger drain on the Commonwealth. An analysis by the Pioneer Institute shows Massachusetts has suffered a net loss of approximately 182,000 residents due to domestic out-migration over the last five years.”
