Katherine Clark said Monday. It is mind-boggling that we are here in mid-December still discussing if we are going to do a package, Clark, a Melrose Democrat who was elected assistant speaker last month, said at a New England Council webinar.
Clark spoke to the business group as the first doses of COVID-19 vaccines were arriving in Massachusetts, and with a bipartisan group of lawmakers reportedly ready to present a plan that involved splitting a stimulus package into two pieces.
