Now completing my second term in office, I have worked tirelessly to deliver legislative victories, local funding, and forward-thinking advocacy for you, your family, and our community. I have a new webpage highlighting some of my top-line accomplishments during the 2021-2022 Massachusetts State Senate session, including huge wins in climate action, reproductive justice, economic recovery, youth mental health, and voting reform. 
 
This legislative session alone, I also secured $25,089,000 for our district to fund a variety of initiatives within our communities, with more local project funding still in the pipeline. I am committed to putting dollars where our cities and towns say they need it most. Learn more about the investments I secured for your community here. 

If you have any questions or ideas about the next big win we can achieve together, please contact me and my team. I look forward to even more progress next term. 

Franklin 9/11 Remembrance Ceremony: I remember exactly where I was on that tragic day 21 years ago. Thank you to the Franklin Senior Center for hosting a powerful memorial to honor the victims and first responders we lost. It was an honor to join Representative Jeff Roy, the Franklin Fire Department, the Franklin Police Department, and members of our community in remembrance of those whose lives were taken too soon, including those who served to save the lives of others. 

Voices Against Violence Annual 5k Run: October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month. With an uptick in domestic violence during the COVID-19 pandemic, it is essential that we all play our part in being active bystanders and supporting survivors. It was an honor to speak at this 5k event, hosted by SMOC, alongside Senate President Karen Spilka, Representative Danielle Gregoire, Representative Jack Lewis, and local leaders. If you or a loved one is experiencing domestic violence, know that there are many local resources ready to help. 

Small Business Advisory Council Meeting: Today I hosted the third meeting of my Small Business Advisory Council at An Unlikely Story Bookstore and Café in Plainville. We were joined by Senator Michael Rodrigues, Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, as well as business owners and town economic development leaders. Small businesses have always been the backbones of our communities, and they have faced many challenges through this pandemic. Our Council is an opportunity to translate our Main Streets’ needs into real solutions.
