THE STATE SENATE IS HERE TO
HELP YOU DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS

As we move through the public health crisis of COVID-19 and its aftermath, I want you to know that the Massachusetts State Senate is here to serve as a resource to help you navigate state government during this difficult time.

If you live in my district, which consists of Ashland, Framingham, Franklin, Holliston, Hopkinton, Medway and Natick, you can contact my office by email and you will be contacted by a member of my Constituent Services Team. You can also visit the MetroWest Resources During COVID-19 page on my website. If you live anywhere else in Massachusetts, you can find the contact information of your state Senator here: Find My Legislator.

Senators and their staff are available to help you apply for unemployment or health insurance, answer your questions about small business and nonprofits, or connect you with other resources you, your family, or your business may need right now.

For highlights of the major legislation passed by the Massachusetts State Senate in response to COVID-19, please see the ‘COVID-19 Response’ of the Interim Session Report. For up-to-date information on the work of the state Senate, including bills we have passed to provide for remote notarizations, prevent evictions and foreclosures, waive the MCAS requirements for the school year, and expand access to safety net programs, please visit the Updates section of my website.
