Who Represents Carlisle
All of Carlisle sits in one state representative district, so unlike many towns you do not have to check your street to know who speaks for you on Beacon Hill. One state representative, one state senator, and one member of Congress cover the whole town, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Carlisle included. Five names on this page, and between them they carry everything from a local road project to a federal privacy law.
State Senator
Third Middlesex District · Democrat
Michael J. Barrett
State House: Room 312-B · (617) 722-1572
Email: mike.barrett@masenate.gov
The Third Middlesex district gathers Carlisle with a cluster of suburban towns northwest of Boston, so one senator carries the housing, transportation, climate and school-funding questions the whole area shares. All of Carlisle sits inside it, which means there is no district line to check before you write. Barrett serves as an Assistant Majority Leader in the Senate.
State Representative
All of Carlisle sits in the 14th Middlesex House district, so one representative speaks for the whole town.
14th Middlesex District · Democrat
Simon Cataldo
State House: Room 136 · (617) 722-2396
Email: simon.cataldo@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. Cataldo’s office takes calls from Carlisle residents.
In Washington
All of Carlisle sits in the 3rd Congressional District, which runs across the Merrimack Valley and northwest Middlesex County. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
3rd Congressional District · Democrat
Lori Trahan
Washington: 2233 Rayburn House Office Building · 202-225-3411
