Thousands of state contracts are being reviewed to determine if Massachusetts is doing business with any Russian companies.
Governor Charlie Baker has ordered the review to determine how many Russian companies the state directly deals with.
Baker is trying to determine if an executive order targeting Russian companies is something he should consider.
Baker is not planning to order Russian products like vodka from store shelves, saying he does not want to issue orders that could hurt businesses.
The Governor's remarks come on the heals of a state lawmaker who has filed a measure that would ban the sale of items made in Russia in this state as a way to show support for the Ukrainian people.
