TAUNTON A Taunton City Council resolution condemning the Jan. 6 Capitol riot was sent to the council-as-a-whole subcommittee Tuesday evening after it became clear it did not have enough support to be approved.
Councilors in opposition of passing the resolution that night said they were not consulted about the resolution beforehand and questioned whether it was an appropriate measure.
The resolution was put forth by Councilor Phil Duarte, who said he drafted the resolution last week after becoming more and more horrified as more information about the Capitol riot was revealed. I thought it was the right thing to do to use the position that I hold to try to offer some condemnation of that attack on the Capitol, he said.
