Eileen McAnneny, president of the business-backed Massachusetts Taxpayers Foundation, said she wasn’t surprised that the Supreme Court decided to stay out of the case, especially since the Baker administration eventually set an end date for the policy of 90 days after the state of emergency’s expiration. In May, Baker said he would end the emergency period on June 15. “By the time they heard the case, the emergency order and the tax policy imposed would have been lifted,” McAnneny said. “It would have been a moot point.”
