Gosnold Legislators

Who Represents Gosnold

The whole town sits in a single state representative district, a single state senate district, and a single congressional district, so there is no district line to check before you write. One representative, one senator, and one member of Congress speak for every Gosnold address, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Gosnold included. Five names, and between them they cover everything from a town road grant to a federal tax bill.

State Senator

Julian Cyr represents the Cape and Islands district, which reaches across Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, and Nantucket, and Gosnold is one of its communities. A state senator votes the state budget, files bills, and can press a state agency on a resident’s behalf, and Senator Cyr’s office takes calls from Gosnold residents.

State Representative

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. Thomas Moakley holds the Barnstable, Dukes and Nantucket district, which takes in the Cape and Islands towns including all of Gosnold, and his office takes calls from Gosnold residents.

In Washington

All of Gosnold sits in the Ninth Congressional District, which covers the South Shore, Cape Cod, and the Islands. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
