Brian Shortsleeve for Massachusetts
@ShortsleeveMA
Republican for Governor of Massachusetts 🇺🇸 Family man. Marine. Harvard MBA. Conservative. Follow Brian @BrianShortsleev
I’m Brian Shortsleeve, and I’m on a mission for Massachusetts. On day one, I’ll bring commonsense, conservative leadership to Beacon Hill—cutting taxes, slashing waste and overregulation, and making Massachusetts a place where businesses and families can thrive once again.
Maura Healey has her priorities backwards - she spends billions sheltering migrants while nickel-and-diming working families in Massachusetts every day with cable-box taxes, state mandated fees on utility bills and other bad ideas that increase cost-of-living. Mass needs a Rescue…
Editorial | We can't be the dumping ground for all of America's ills. Somebody needs to think about Massachusetts taxpayers first, for once. Gov. Healey, why not start today? trib.al/KAp9IlN
Another packed night on the campaign trail! #magov #mapoli

North Carolina #1 state for business per @CNBC with top corporate tax rate at 2.5% and top personal tax rate at 4.5% . Massachusetts #49 in Cost of Doing Business with top corporate tax rate at 8% and top personal tax rate at 9%. MA private sector job growth over 3 years lowest…
Biogen is investing $2 billion in its U.S. manufacturing footprint — but not in Massachusetts, where the drug company is based. bizjournals.com/boston/news/20…
Healey has added $10B in state spending since 2023 - totally unsustainable! Mass needs a Rescue Mission @ShortsleeveMA
Boston and Massachusetts have a problem. The media doesn't talk about it.
Massachusetts has one of the highest unemployment rates in the nation, but Healey is opening up job training for programs for migrants in shelters for – wait for it – law enforcement jobs. They aren’t even eligible for a license to carry. johnfgately.com/p/healey-appro… #magov #mapoli
Maura Healey pulled a fast one when she signed a carve out from consumer protection laws for an accused predatory lender whose CEO just happens to be her longtime friend and donor. It’s just another example of shady dealings by the administration on behalf of Healey’s supporters.…
Thanks for the mention, let the sunshine in! #magov #mapoli
Campaign of GOP candidate for governor Brian Shortsleeve filed FOIA seeking repair records as to how much state has paid for repairs to the Clarion Hotel in Taunton, overrun with Haitian illegals for 2+ years. This is the one-sheet Maura sent back. Who's believing the foreign…
Today, I'll be on WTAG discussing my Mission for Massachusetts, hope you can tune in 580/94.9! #magov #mapoli

Maura Healey doles out $5 million to pay for attorneys for illegal immigrants and the MBTA is paying more than 100 employees six figures in overtime pay on top of base pay. Yet, suspected criminals are being let loose on our streets because Maura Healey says we can’t afford…
If you're in the Acushnet area, I'd love to see you tomorrow night at 6pm at the Acushnet VFW. #magov #mapoli

When I was at the T, we implemented strict overtime policies and procedures that prevented this sort of outrageous overtime spending, including a cap on daily and weekly OT. It worked, and along with our other reforms we delivered the first balanced budget in a decade. Under…

Great to sit down and chat with @agenturban. I provided an overview of my thoughts on the MBTA Communities Act. I support a full repeal of the MBTA Communities Act. #magov #mapoli
Massachusetts Unemployment at 4.8%, State Lost 1,900 Jobs In June newbedfordguide.com/?p=235600 Mass unemployment rate is now 20% above national average due to lack of private sector job growth. Mass needs a Rescue Mission ! @ShortsleeveMA @NewBedfordGuide

The summertime travel drew criticism from GOP gubernatorial candidate @ShortsleeveMA, who on Tuesday said he would disclose travel plans & apply the open records law to the governor’s office if elected, and from @MassFiscal, a right-leaning watchdog group. bostonglobe.com/2025/07/16/met……
Governor @maura_healey wants to use the crisis she created to continue to exercise extraordinary power with little transparency or oversight. The real state of emergency is Maura Healey’s out of control spending that is breaking the backs of taxpayers who are fed up with paying…

Study shows MBTA costs way up since spending control board disbanded Last time the T was financially broken, I led a team that fixed it. Using a Marine’s discipline and business common sense, we got costs under control, balanced the budget and rescued the Green Line Extension.…
The MBTA Communities Act is a massive unfunded mandate and a prime example of administrative overreach that is punishing cities and towns. @ShortsleeveMA is the only candidate who supports a full repeal so we can go back to the drawing board. #mapoli fb.watch/ASbeAsNa4X/?
