This March, we celebrate Women’s History Month — honoring the courageous, trailblazing women whose sacrifices and strength helped shape the world we live in today.
From the front lines of the civil rights movement to the halls of justice, women have always led the way. Their legacies remind us that progress is possible when we stand up, speak out, and never give up.
To every woman in Methuen and Haverhill — thank you for all that you do. Your contributions matter, your voices matter, and your history matters.

Out on a run today and came across a fire hydrant completely buried in snow — so I stopped and shoveled it out. 🚒❄️
It only took a few minutes, but it could make all the difference in an emergency. Methuen Fire Department and Haverhill Fire Department Local 1011 Firefighters need to be able to access hydrants FAST, and every second counts when a house is on fire.
With a beautiful day like today — sun is out, temps are decent — there’s no better time to grab a shovel and clear the hydrant in front of your home or on your street. It’s a small act that could literally save a life (or a home).
Check your neighborhood. Clear your hydrant. Look out for each other

Yesterday, I voted YES on H.5151 — because working people in Massachusetts deserve a break on their energy bills. ⚡🏠
For too long, hardworking families have been squeezed by rising utility costs while energy suppliers pocketed the difference. H.5151 changes that — and it does so in a big way.
💰 $9 BILLION in savings for utility ratepayers over the next 10 years. That’s real money staying in your wallet, not lining the pockets of utility companies.
But this bill goes even further for working and middle-class families:
✅ Discounted energy rates for low- and moderate-income residents — because no one should have to choose between heat and groceries
✅ Limits on how often residential rates can change — so families can actually budget without surprise spikes
✅ A task force dedicated to studying long-term electricity costs — because affordability can’t just be a short-term fix
✅ Environmental compliance payments redirected from electricity suppliers back to residents
Beyond immediate relief, H.5151 sets Massachusetts up for a stronger, more affordable energy future:
⚡ Expands the state’s authority to procure energy at better rates
☀️ Accelerates offshore wind, solar, and energy storage development
☢️ Removes outdated barriers to nuclear energy
🔌 Supports critical transmission upgrades
👷 Includes workforce protections for energy workers
And on Mass Save — the nation’s #1 energy efficiency program — H.5151 trims $1 billion from marketing and administrative costs only. Not a single program gets cut. Every upgrade and rebate that working families depend on remains fully intact, and the Inspector General will review the program to make it work even harder for the people who need it most.
Affordable energy isn’t a luxury. It’s a necessity. This vote was for every Massachusetts family struggling to keep the lights on. 💪

Yesterday, I was proud to celebrate Dominican Independence Day in Methuen — honoring the rich culture, history, and contributions of our Dominican community.
Methuen is stronger because of the families, small business owners, and community leaders who bring their heritage, traditions, and pride to our city each and every day. Dominican Independence Day is not only a celebration of freedom, but a celebration of community, resilience, and the shared values that unite us.
Thank you to D.J. Beauregard for Mayor and everyone who helped organize this special event. It was wonderful to come together in celebration of culture, heritage, and the vibrant spirit that makes Methuen such a special place to call home.
¡Que viva la República Dominicana!🇩🇴

Presidents’ Day is a chance to recognize the individuals who have held our nation’s highest office, from George Washington to Abraham Lincoln and many others since.
It’s also an opportunity to reflect on the history of our country, the lessons learned along the way, and the importance of leadership and public service in every generation.
Wishing everyone a safe and enjoyable Presidents’ Day.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! 🦃🍁

Recently, I had the honor of giving my maiden speech on the House floor!
I spoke in support of my bill, H.4670 – An Act Relative to Personal Financial Literacy – which unanimously passed the House! This bill ensures that students across Massachusetts learn the basics of money management before graduation — things like budgeting, saving, and understanding credit.
Financial literacy is more than just numbers — it’s about empowering young people to make informed decisions, build stability, and plan for their future.
Thank you to my colleagues, educators, and everyone who helped make this happen! 💪📚💵
