"R" VOTERS ignore FACTS & fail to research CANDIDATES! RYAN FATTMAN WHITE WASHED HIS EGREGIOUS VIOLATIONS OF LAW & PRETENDS IT WAS 'POLITICAL' ! TYPICAL REPUBLICAN EXCUSE FOR HIS CRIMES THE ENTIRE FAMILY PARTICIPATED IN! Massachusetts GOP couple agree to state’s largest settlement after campaign finance investigation The settlements to be paid by Republican state Sen. Ryan Fattman, Worcester County Register of Probate Stephanie Fattman and others total hundreds of thousands of dollars — the largest amounts ever paid by candidate committees to the state to resolve cases after campaign finance investigations, according to Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Campbell, a Democrat. The Office of Campaign and Political Finance investigated contributions funneled from Ryan Fattman’s senate campaign committee through state and local Republican committees to Stephanie Fattman’s register of probate committee during her 2020 reelection campaign. In 2020, Ryan Fattman’s campaign donated money to the Republican State Committee and the Sutton Republican Town Committee, which used the money to help fund more than 500,000 mailers to support Stephanie Fattman’s reelection campaign, according to investigators. The contributions, totaling more than $160,000 — of which $137,000 flowed through the Republican State Committee — far exceeded the legal limit of $100 on contributions from one candidate to another, Campbell said. Under the settlement both Stephanie Fattman and the Stephanie Fattman Committee must pay out the full amount of the impermissible contributions funneled to the committee through the Republican State Committee — $137,000. Ryan Fattman must pay $55,000. Donald Fattman, former treasurer of the Ryan Fattman Committee and Ryan Fattman’s father, must pay $10,000. “We are grateful to put this matter behind us, and are appreciative of the outpouring of support we received along the way. The professionalism we experienced from the Attorney General’s Office was noteworthy. They treated us with respect, conducted business with decorum, and ultimately agreed that there was no liability or wrongdoing attributed to us,” Ryan Fattman said in a statement. He also said he and his wife were “targets of political persecution from an outgoing political appointee” and that successful Republicans are held to a different standard than Democrats in the heavily Democratic state. Last month the attorney general’s office reached a settlement agreement with the Massachusetts Republican State Committee in the same campaign finance violation case. The Committee has agreed to pay a total of $15,000 by December. The Sutton Republican Town Committee also entered into an agreement, paying the remains of its committee bank account to the state, more than $

Out in the cold

  ❤️  Donate Tuesday, October 28, 2025 ☁️  Cloudy and cool, with a high of 52. Good Morning Boston, We're officially four weeks (and counting) into the federal government shutdown, and it could claim another victim as the weather turns colder: heating assistance. Here's what you need to know: Warming worries:   Usually by now, states like Massachusetts would have received an influx of money from the federal government to disburse to families in need of help with their heating bills. It's called the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program (or LIHEAP) . And starting Nov. 1, those families would be able to use that assistance to get their electric, gas or fuel oil bill paid for, in whole or in part. But WBUR's Miriam Wasser  reports  that the money from the feds hasn't shown up — and that could leave many people in the cold. This assistance delay is "unprecedented," Mark Wolfe, executive director of the National Energy Assistance Directors Association, told...
