𝐌𝐢𝐤𝐞 𝐌𝐢𝐧𝐨𝐠𝐮𝐞’s allegation that the State Police Association of Massachusetts exchanged its endorsement for a contract is categorically false. Accusing our members of corruption without evidence is reckless, and we will not allow their integrity or the contract they earned to be smeared for political gain. Our contract was negotiated by the Association’s Bargaining Team and the Commonwealth through a process that included mediation, fact finding and arbitration. A mutual agreement followed the release of an independent fact finder’s report, which is publicly available. The agreement provides raises totaling 11% over three years, consistent with what other state unions received. Mr. Minogue’s claim of 18% is wrong. Our members earned this contract through their service and sacrifice. They find missing children, investigate homicides, respond to dangerous emergencies and put their lives on the line to protect people they have never met. Their compensation should not become a political weapon for a candidate seeking to attack the governor. We proudly stand by our endorsement of @MassGovernor @maura_healey, alongside the @BostonPatrolmen and @MassCOPUnion. That endorsement reflects her demonstrated commitment to law enforcement and the firsthand experience of our union leadership. Our support is earned through actions and a working relationship built on respect. Mr. Minogue is free to disagree with our endorsement.

𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐆𝐮𝐧𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐢𝐧 𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐛𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐠𝐞 Earlier today in Cambridge, a horrific act of violence unfolded when an armed suspect opened fire on innocent civilians. As chaos erupted and people fled for safety, members of law enforcement responded without hesitation. A Trooper assigned to the Boston Barracks (H-4) positioned his cruiser to help shield civilians from danger and acted swiftly in the face of an active threat. The Trooper, alongside members of the Cambridge Police Department and a civilian who is a former United States Marine, discharged their firearms to help stop the threat and prevent further injuries or any loss of life. The State Police Association of Massachusetts extends its prayers and heartfelt wishes for a full and speedy recovery to all those injured in this senseless act. We also commend the courage, professionalism, and quick actions of all those who responded under extremely dangerous circumstances, helping to prevent what could have been an even greater tragedy. @cppoa1969 @CambridgePolice @followers #usmc

Yesterday, multiple callers reported a horse trotted onto I-93 in Randolph from the Route 28 ramp coming from the Blue Hills Reservation area. Troopers Bouck, Clifford, Long, and Lieutenant Durant all responded to the potential hazardous, dangerous, and disruptive event for passing motorists. Luckily, trained bystanders were able to assist and calm down the stressed horse to keep it stationary. Troopers on scene were able to coordinate and locate the owner of the horse, and subsequent reunite with her horse. Prior to this event, the horse had bumped her owner off on the trails and eventually ran away. Once reunited, Troopers utilized their cruisers and provided an escort for the horse to navigate back to the trails safely.

On this solemn anniversary of the September 11th attacks, the State Police Association of Massachusetts pauses to honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost and the countless families forever changed. We remember the courage of first responders who ran toward danger, the resilience of a nation that refused to be broken, and the enduring spirit of unity that rose from tragedy. Today, and every day, we stand in reverence, gratitude, and solidarity with all who continue to carry the weight of that day in their hearts. #September11 #September11NeverForget #NeverForget #NeverForget911

State Police Association of Massachusetts Statement on the trial and death of Boston Police Officer John O'Keefe The Association continues to send its sincere condolences to the family of Boston Police Officer John O’Keefe. The jury has spoken, and we remain respectful of the process. However, since the beginning of this trial there have been numerous attacks and accusations against our Troopers and Sergeants. Careers have been lost, families have been devastated, and many lives have been changed forever. As our current and former members continue to be the subjects of baseless accusations, it is important to remember that the investigation into the death of John O’Keefe has been investigated with great scrutiny by both members of the State Police Internal Affairs and the FBI. To date, there has yet to be any information that this investigation was compromised in any way. We remain steadfast in our commitment to represent the men and women of the State Police Association and are forever grateful for the work our members do every day to serve the citizens of the Commonwealth.

UPDATE 06.10.2025 3:15 PM: A suspect has been identified and arrested. Details to follow.

Statement from the State Police Association of Massachusetts on a trooper struck this morning in Chicopee "Early this morning while conducting a traffic stop on I-90, the Massachusetts Turnpike in Chicopee, a trooper was struck by a passing motor vehicle. The trooper sustained serious injuries, but has been initially reported as non-life-threatening injuries. The operator of the vehicle that struck the trooper fled the scene. Our members assigned to the Hampden County State Police Detective Unit are actively investigating the incident. We are confident the involved party will be identified. This incident highlights the importance of moving over or if unable, slowing down when approaching emergency personnel on the highway. Again, please remember to move over when approaching first responders on the highway. We will update further as we gather more informaton on the trooper's condition and results of identifying the driver of the vehicle that fled." #MoveOver
