The Worcester & Hampshire Senate District (redistricted in  2021) is a seat that Democrats held (until last November) for 50 years. Why? It's not because our voters are complacent.  It's because Democrats are there for all the people they represent, not just for special interests.  Our communities, our residents, our voters knew, saw, and experienced that dedication - in Anne Gobi, in Steve Brewer, in Harriette Chandler, in Bob Wetmore. 

My focus and passion is local government, the front line of representing people. I am a firm believer that it is local government that builds strong communities.  A state senator should be the voice for every resident in those communities - and should advocate, forcefully when needed, to get those residents what they need from the Boston-centric Statehouse to support strong communities.
