No timeline for State House reopening other than fall
By Chris Van Buskirk
State House News Service
Legislative leaders released a new statement on State House reopening plans Wednesday, but did not outline any concrete steps to reopen the building.
The statement comes just over two weeks after the Baker administration rescinded nearly all of the pandemic-era restrictions that governed life for 15 months across Massachusetts and as businesses start to reopen their offices to employees. The State House has been mostly closed for 471 days.
In a joint statement, Senate President Karen Spilka and House Speaker Ronald Mariano said the Legislature is in the process of developing a comprehensive and nuanced reopening plan with the goal of returning employees and the public safely to the State House in the fall. Fall begins Sept. 22 and ends on Dec. 21.
