Who Represents Ashby
Ashby sits whole inside a single state representative district and a single senate district, so unlike some of its neighbors there is no line running through town: the same two state legislators speak for every address in Ashby. One member of Congress covers the whole town, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Ashby included. Five names on this page, and between them they cover everything from a rural road-repair grant to a federal farm rule.
State Senator
Worcester and Middlesex District · Democrat
John Cronin
State House: Room 218 · (617) 722-1230
Email: john.cronin@masenate.gov
The Worcester and Middlesex district gathers a set of north-central towns into one senate seat, so one senator carries their road, housing, and school-funding questions to the full Senate. All of Ashby sits inside it, which means there is no district line to check before you write.
State Representative
Ashby is not split: the whole town sits in the 1st Middlesex House district, so one representative speaks for every street in town.
1st Middlesex District · Democrat
Margaret R. Scarsdale
State House: Room 473F · (617) 722-2210
Email: margaret.scarsdale@mahouse.gov
A state representative files bills, votes the state budget, and can chase a state agency on a constituent’s behalf, which is often the fastest use of the office. This office takes calls from Ashby residents.
In Washington
All of Ashby sits in the 3rd Congressional District, which runs across north-central Massachusetts from the New Hampshire border down toward the Merrimack Valley. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
