The press release did not mention Baker by name. Making sure Massachusetts is creating the best scenario for job growth is the key to a strong recovery because keeping people on enhanced unemployment is not the answer, Diehl said.
Earlier this year, Baker supported the impeachment of Trump for incitement of insurrection after a mob of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 in an effort to stop the transfer of power to President Joe Biden. According to the Boston Herald, Diehl said Baker should retract his stance.
Diehl previously ran for statewide office in 2018 in an effort to unseat Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren. He lost to her by a margin of more than 24 points.
