Senator Joan B. Lovely’s Statement Regarding Plains Park Assault

As we learn more about the horrific assault on Chris ‘Ducky’ Anderson at Plains Park in Danvers, the details are truly heartbreaking.

I want to commend the outpouring of support for Chris during this painful time. I stand united in declaring that hate and violence have no place in our communities, which instead must be spaces of compassion, inclusion, and safety for all.

With peace,

Senator Joan B. Lovely
