AI Summary
This bill proposes to install a plaque in the vicinity of the Governor's office to commemorate the patriotic contributions of Governor James Sullivan and General John Sullivan during the American Revolution and early Republic. The plaque, a gift from the Navigator Foundation and Friends, will describe the Sullivans' positive influence on colonial American society's attitudes toward those of Irish birth or background, as well as their personification of the qualities and allegiance of the Irish people who supported the American cause. The plaque will also recall the Sullivans' historic Irish ancestor, Donal Cam O'Sullivan Beara, and his heroic defense of Irish liberty. The design and content of the plaque will be subject to review and approval by the Art Commission in accordance with the Massachusetts General Laws.
