Attorney General Maura Healey s office confirmed Wednesday that she will require some of her staffers to get vaccinated when they return to in-person, public-facing work.
In a wide-ranging discussion with business leaders, she also reiterated her broader stance that some public-sector employees, such as corrections officers and state police, should be required to receive COVID-19 vaccinations.
Asked during a question-and-answer session with the New England Council how state officials could enforce such a requirement, Healey said she views the mandate as common sense for employees who regularly interact with the public as a function of their jobs, and pointed to other required vaccinations.
Massachusetts Attorney General Maura Healey on Wednesday took aim at statements made by Bristol County Sheriff Thomas M. Hodgson where he blasted the AG s explosive 60-page report that wrapped up her office s six-month investigation into what happened during a violent May 1 altercation at the sheriff s ICE lockup facility in North Dartmouth.
Speaking to reporters Wednesday, the Republican sheriff attacked the Democratic attorney general s report on the conflict at the C. Carlos Carreiro Immigration Detention Center as “baseless” and “politically motivated,” called Healey a political hack, and accused her of creating a false narrative of the incident.
Healey s report accused Hodgson and his officers of violating detainees’ civil rights during a chaotic melee involving dogs and pepper spray that sent two men to the hospital with respiratory distress and left another with an apparent heart attack. That man was revived from unconsciousness via emergency chest compression
