Fountain for State Representative

Who am I?

I am a liberal Democrat with almost 20 years of experience working as a community activist in Springfield Massachusetts. I have a master's degree in education and a passion for defending people's rights.

Why am I running?

I am running for State Representative because I want to make a difference. I am tired of being behind the scenes thinking that things will change if we wait. There is a war on women, unions and poor people. The right is pulling everyone further and further from the values this country was founded on and I want to pull the conversation back in the other direction.

My Goals

1. End Corporate Personhood.
2. Change graduation requirments for high school seniors.
3. Create a public option in health care.
4. Protect union's collective bargaining rights and their right to keep their own health benifits if they choose.
5. Increase the State Minimum wage to $10 per hour over the next 4 years.

About the Endorsement Process

All campaigns seeking a DFA endorsement are first required to complete the endorsement application in order to be considered. Members of the DFA Political team will review applications after submission and make endorsement decisions on a rolling basis throughout the applicable election cycle.

The driving force behind all DFA endorsements is our membership. We gauge DFA member support in a number of different ways. For starters, supporters can publicly show their support on any candidate’s application page. We also utilize endorsement decisions of local DFA groups as a measure of local community support. Finally, if you know a candidate deserving of a DFA endorsement who hasn’t yet applied, we want to hear about them! Please visit the Endorsement FAQ page for answers to frequently asked questions about our endorsement process.

If you still have any questions, or want to let us know about a candidate in your neighborhood, please call us at (802) 651-3200 or email us at [email protected] .
