Jay Gonzalez, Democratic candidate for Massachusetts governor, to address Wilbraham Democrats
WILBRAHAM -- Jay Gonzalez, a former Patrick administration official who's running for governor, will be guest speaker at the Wilbraham Democratic Town Committee meeting on April 5 at the Wilbraham Public Library, 25 Crane Park Drive. The talk begins at 7 p.m. in the Brooks Room.
Gonzalez was secretary of the state Executive Office for Administration and Finance under Gov. Deval Patrick, who appointed him to the job in October 2009.
The attorney and former CEO of CeltiCare Health announced his candidacy in January. If Gonzalez clears the Democratic primary, he'll face incumbent Republican Gov. Charlie Baker, who's widely expected to run for re-election in 2018.
"Now, more than ever, we need a governor who is going to stand up and fight for our values and fight to move us forward," Gonzalez, who oversaw the commonwealth's operating budget from 2009 to 2013, said in a statement.
