State House Speaker Lee Chatfield

Outgoing State House Speaker Lee Chatfield and Speaker-Elect Jason Wentworth issued a joint statement shortly after reviewing Eisen’s radio interview, starting off with the terse revelation that Eisen no longer has a seat at any statehouse committee through the balance of the term.

It’s been revealed that the Governor was informed of the federal and state investigation into the men involved in the plot long before arrests were made last Wednesday. But the House Speaker says the Governor nor anyone from her staff bothered to let legislative leaders in on the potential danger.
