Who Represents Harvard
All of Harvard sits in a single state representative district and a single state senate district, so there is no address line to check before you write: one state representative and one state senator speak for the whole town. One member of Congress covers Harvard, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Harvard included. Five names on this page, and between them they cover everything from a local road project to a federal law.
State Senator
Middlesex and Worcester District · Democrat
James B. Eldridge
State House: Room 511-C · (617) 722-1120
Email: james.eldridge@masenate.gov
A state senator votes the state budget, files bills, and sits on the committees that shape state law. All of Harvard sits inside the Middlesex and Worcester district, which means there is no district line to check before you write.
State Representative
Harvard sits entirely within one House district, so the same representative speaks for every street in town.
37th Middlesex District · Democrat
Danillo A. Sena
State House: Room 39 · (617) 722-2014
Email: danillo.sena@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 Harvard residents.
In Washington
All of Harvard sits in the 3rd Congressional District, which runs across north-central Massachusetts from Lowell and Lawrence out toward Fitchburg. 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
