Great to have support from the Diehl family. The Diehl's know that @maura_healey would be a disaster as Governor and we can't afford her far left agenda on Beacon Hill. Show your support by ordering a yard sign https://chrisforma.com/lawn-signs #magov #mapoli #massgop

Please read. Especially if you believe that we will be “ok” here in Massachusetts after the fall of Roe. #mapoli #abortion
