Koutoujian, whose district includes Waltham and part of Newton, thought would come back to bite him.

The lawmakers said the ad gives the false impression that they had endorsed her, writes Lisa Wangsness of the Globe City & Region section. The ad shows the lawmakers at a bill-signing ceremony last month, during which they heaped praise on Healey for helping to pass legislation extending the statute of limitations on sex crimes.
