I sent the following email to Newton Republican City Committee Chair Tom Mountain and vice chairs Susan Hufman and Sande Young today.   (Commonwealth story here.)

Hello Tom, Susan and Sande:
 
I hope you are having a great summer.
 
I’m writing in my position as a Village 14 blogger to ask if the Newton Republican City Committee has issued a statement  regarding President Trump’s suggestions that a group of four congresswomen of color should “go back” to where they came from.
 
If not, could you please provide one now?
 
I’ll let you know if I hear back (or they are free to comment directly here).
