Campaign themes
Simonian's website highlighted the following campaign themes:[1]
Put Our District's Communities First
- Excerpt: "I will work tirelessly to support the cities and town making up my constituency and am dedicated to equally and fairly representing the best interests of the majority of the district."
Job Creation
- Excerpt: "I will work with existing businesses to understand what is needed to keep them here, and look for opportunities that make Massachusetts attractive to new businesses."
Balance in Government
- Excerpt: "I believe that government service as an elected official should be an honor and not a means to a supplement or create a pension. I want to restore the people's faith in our leaders and reverse the alarming trend on Beacon Hill where the rules of the political system have been built to benefit those who hold office."
Secure Communities
- Excerpt: "I believe that participating in Secure Communities gives our public safety officials communication tools so they can better ensure the safety of our cities and towns."
