NATICK A Town Meeting member plans to introduce a resolution that condemns the actions of those who took part in the Jan. 6 riot inside the U.S. Capitol.
Jay Ball, a 30-year member of the elected body, will present his resolution during tonight’s first session of Town Meeting.
Posted on the town’s website, the resolution calls the riot a “despicable act.”
“…be it resolved that we, the duly elected Members of Natick Town Meeting, condemn the actions of any and all persons who took part in this act of sedition, and declare that they in no way represent the sentiments of this body, or of the Town of Natick,” the resolution reads in part.
NATICK – A Town Meeting member was photographed participating in a violent riot inside the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, and now an effort is under way to remove her from her elected position.
The Agence France-Presse photograph, distributed via Getty Images, shows Sue Ianni of Natick among a throng of protesters inside the Capitol, with her right arm raised. Standing next to her is a man believed to be Mark Sahady, a Malden resident and one of the organizers of the “Straight Pride” parade in Boston in 2019. Sahady has reported ties to far-right organizations.
