|- The job of a State Representative is diverse, but most importantly, it is to be your voice on Beacon Hill. Since 2013, Jeff has been part of a legislative team that has addressed the issues of education, economic development, the coronavirus pandemic, health care, substance use disorder, criminal justice, civil rights and social equity, gun safety, energy, and the environment.
- I have led efforts to draft and pass the clean energy and offshore wind bill in 2022; draft and pass the Genocide Education Act; finalize the Roadmap Bill on climate change; draft and pass legislation relative to sexual violence on higher education campuses; draft and pass legislation increasing transparency and financial reporting requirements for higher education institutions; draft and pass legislation that increased transparency and civic engagement by creating a searchable online database of legal notices; pass legislation lowering thresholds on specialty license plates, making them available to smaller charities and causes; and pass legislation to create a Regional Dispatch Center for Franklin, Norfolk, Wrentham, and Plainville.
- With 10 years of experience at the State House, 14 years of local government experience, and 36 years as an attorney, I know first-hand how state government can help and hurt our communities. I bring experience, creativity, and a bipartisan approach to the job, and will continue to work to make progress on the quality-of-life issues that impact all of us. As your Representative, I am accessible and get results for you. Your priorities—local aid, economic development, education, climate change, and public safety—will continue to be my focus.

Scorecards
A scorecard evaluates a legislator’s voting record. Its purpose is to inform voters about the legislator’s political positions. Because scorecards have varying purposes and methodologies, each report should be considered on its own merits. For example, an advocacy group’s scorecard may assess a legislator’s voting record on one issue while a state newspaper’s scorecard may evaluate the voting record in its entirety.
Ballotpedia is in the process of developing an encyclopedic list of published scorecards. Some states have a limited number of available scorecards or scorecards produced only by select groups. It is Ballotpedia’s goal to incorporate all available scorecards regardless of ideology or number.
