- Seanad: Address to Seanad Éireann by H.E. Maura Healey, Governor of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts (27 Jun 2023)
Jerry Buttimer: I was going to conclude by saying Governor Healey will not be stopping at the corner office she will definitely be heading towards the Oval Office.

He will be getting married to Áine in several...

From the United States of America, I also...
