Who Represents Granby

Granby 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, Granby included. Six names on this page, five for any single address, and between them they carry everything from a local road bylaw to a federal farm program.

State Senator

The Hampden, Hampshire and Worcester district reaches across three counties of the Pioneer Valley, so one senator carries the housing, transportation and school-funding questions of more than a dozen communities. All of Granby sits inside it, which means there is no district line to check before you write your senator.

State Representative

Granby 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 Granby residents.

In Washington

All of Granby sits in the 1st Congressional District, a large western Massachusetts seat that runs from the Berkshires across the Pioneer Valley. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
