Boston-based Catholic Schools Foundation (CSF) held a fundraising gala last week which featured an appearance from Democratic Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey.
Healey is not only a staunch supporter of abortion and the LGBTQ movement, she also currently cohabits with a woman. Healey’s female “partner” is a mother of two and was still married to her childrens’ father when her relationship with the governor began.
The Pilot reported that the CSF’s 34th annual Building Minds Scholarship Fund Gala was held in Boston on April 11. The gala raised over $5.6 million to support Catholic school scholarships in the Archdiocese, according to The Pilot.
The Democratic governor “made a special appearance to thank the foundation and its donors for ‘doing God’s work,’” The Pilot noted.
The Pilot is published by the Archdiocese of Boston and describes itself as “America’s oldest Catholic newspaper.”
Just two days earlier, Healey visited St. John’s Prep, an elite all-boys Catholic school in Danvers, MA, which serves grades 6 through 12. The school is sponsored by the Congregation of St. Francis Xavier (Xaverian Brothers).

At the prep school, “the governor spent almost an hour engaging with five student groups,” Blaze Media indicated.
St. John’s Head of School Ed Hardiman told the governor that he was “really excited to have the opportunity to engage with … and to learn from” her.
Furthermore, the school praised its visit with Healey via an entry on its website, posted April 12. “[I]t was quickly clear [Healey’s] personal values are closely aligned with those of the Xaverian Brothers,” the entry alleges.
Healey was raised Catholic but it is unclear if she still claims to practice the faith.
On Tuesday, the Catholic Action League of Massachusetts decried Healey’s visit.
“Healey is a partnered lesbian, endorsed by Planned Parenthood, who has credited the nation’s largest abortion perpetrator as the force which made possible her political career,” the organization stated in a news release.
“The Planned Parenthood Advocacy Fund of Massachusetts endorsed Healey and contributed to her campaign, when ran for Attorney General—her first elective office—in 2014,” the Catholic Action League noted. “[Healey] subsequently said that [Planned Parenthood’s] support was ‘a game changer for my campaign.’”
“Healey received their endorsement again when she ran for re-election in 2018, and when she ran for governor in 2022,” the League added.
In addition, Catholic Action League Executive Director C.J. Doyle pointed out that the governor “is an opponent of vouchers and tuition tax credits for private and parochial schools.”
“Healey actually appointed her former lesbian paramour to the state’s highest court, the Supreme Judicial Court of the Commonwealth, which by the way is the oldest court in the United States,” Doyle added.
American Family News described that Healey had appointed her ex-significant other Gabrielle Wolohojian “in February to an open seat on the state’s highest court.”
At the time, Healey had defended her controversial appointment stating: “I’m proud of that nomination and I’m proud of nominating someone who is so deserving and so qualified.”
“Of course, I had a personal relationship with Judge Wolohojian for many years so I happen to also know something about her character and her integrity and the kind of person she is,” the governor also remarked in February.
While Healey and Wolohojian’s relationship ended years ago, the governor is currently cohabiting with Joanna Lydgate.
Lydgate is a lawyer who was Healey’s Chief Deputy when the now-governor was serving as Massachusetts Attorney General.
Healey maintains that she began seeing Lydgate months after she had ceased being her employee. Lydgate is the co-foundress and currently serves as the President and Chief Executive Officer of the States United Democracy Center.
The Center has been described as protecting so-called “voting rights,” a loosely defined term which in recent years has been often used as a left-wing euphemism for opposing election integrity measures.
