Massachusetts Town Fines Resident for Projecting 'Trump 2024' Sign on Water Tower

Hanson officials issue a cease-and-desist order and a $100 daily fine for unauthorized political projection.

The projection of a 'Trump 2024' sign onto the Hanson municipal water tower was discovered on October 11.
Town officials emphasize that the projection falsely implies municipal endorsement of a political candidate.
A spotlight has been installed by the Highway Department to obscure the projection, though it remains partially visible.
The $100 daily fine is intended to deter the activity but may not cover associated taxpayer costs.
Hanson respects free speech but prohibits political displays that suggest town endorsement.
