Who Represents Cheshire
All of Cheshire sits in a single state representative district, so one representative speaks for the whole town. One state senator and one member of Congress cover the town as well, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Cheshire included. Five names on this page, and between them they cover everything from a state road repair to a federal farm rule.
State Senator
Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire District · Democrat
Paul W. Mark
State House: Room 504 · (617) 722-1625
Email: paul.mark@masenate.gov
The Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire district reaches across four counties of western Massachusetts, so one senator carries the road, broadband, housing, and school-funding questions of a wide stretch of hill towns. All of Cheshire sits inside it, which means there is no district line to check before you write.
State Representative
One representative speaks for all of Cheshire, so there is no address to check first: this is your seat in the state House.
1st Berkshire District · Democrat
John Barrett III
State House: Room 277 · (617) 722-2012
Email: john.barrett@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 Cheshire residents.
In Washington
All of Cheshire sits in the 1st Congressional District, which covers western Massachusetts from the Berkshires to Springfield. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
1st Congressional District · Democrat
Richard E. Neal
Washington: 372 Cannon House Office Building · 202-225-5601
