Freetown Legislators

Who Represents Freetown

Freetown is split between two state representative districts, so this is one of the towns where your own address decides who speaks for you on Beacon Hill. One state senator and one member of Congress cover the whole town, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Freetown included. Six names on this page, five for any single address, and between them they carry everything from a local road project to a federal fisheries rule.

State Senator

The First Bristol and Plymouth district reaches across parts of Bristol and Plymouth counties, and all of Freetown sits inside it, so there is no district line to check before you write. Rodrigues chairs the Senate Committee on Ways and Means, the committee that writes the Senate’s version of the state budget, which makes his office a direct line to how the Commonwealth spends its money.

State Representative

Freetown is split between two House districts, so the person who speaks for your street depends on where in town you live. Check your address before you write, because a letter to the wrong one of these two will simply be forwarded.

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. Both of these offices take calls from Freetown residents.

In Washington

All of Freetown sits in the Fourth Congressional District, which runs from the Boston suburbs south into Bristol County. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
