January 1, Massachusetts Governor Now Begging For The Gas She Once Bragged About Killing

Wyatt’s Take

• Democrat Maura Healey once took credit for killing gas pipelines but now admits her state needs more of the same energy she fought to stop.
• Her flip-flop shows how radical green policies hurt working families when reality hits the kitchen table.
• Regular Americans pay the price for these empty virtue signals while elites suddenly discover common sense when their own lights flicker.

A Democratic governor who once took credit for stopping two gas pipelines said during a debate Thursday that her state needs more of the energy source.

“But we need more gas. We need more gas. We need all forms of energy,” Democratic Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey said in the debate with Republican challenger Mike Minogue.

The sudden reversal comes after years of blocking new pipelines that could have kept energy costs down for families across the Northeast.

Healey built her campaign around climate promises that sounded good on paper but left her state short on reliable power when winter hits hard.

Now facing voters who feel the pinch in their monthly bills, she is forced to admit the obvious truth she once mocked her opponents for saying.

Working families in Massachusetts and across the country already knew you cannot heat homes or run factories on wind and good intentions alone.

Wyatt Matters

Heartland families understand that reliable energy keeps the lights on and the economy moving. When politicians finally admit the obvious after years of denial, it proves regular Americans were right all along about what works in the real world.
