Who Represents Lynnfield

Five people speak for Lynnfield above the town line, and the same five speak for every address in it. One state senator, one state representative, one member of Congress, and the Commonwealth’s two United States senators. Here is a detail worth keeping: Lynnfield sits in Essex County, but its House district is called the 20th Middlesex. District lines are drawn from population, not from county borders, which is why the name on your representative’s district can belong to a county you do not live in.

State Senator

The Third Essex district is six North Shore communities, and all of Lynnfield sits inside it, so there is no district line to check before you write. Crighton is the Senate chair of the Joint Committee on Transportation and sits on Senate Ways and Means, which is the committee the state budget passes through.

State Representative

All of Lynnfield sits in one House district, the 20th Middlesex, which it shares with Middleton, North Reading and Reading. One representative, one office, no address to check first.

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. Jones has led the House Republican caucus as Minority Leader since 2002, one of the longest leadership tenures on Beacon Hill, and he sits on the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy. A caucus leader is in the room when the House negotiates, so a Lynnfield resident’s letter reaches a desk with unusual reach.

In Washington

All of Lynnfield sits in the 6th Congressional District, which covers the North Shore from Lynn and Saugus out to Gloucester, Newburyport and the New Hampshire line. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats, and both of them represent Lynnfield along with every other community in the state.

Moulton has represented the North Shore since 2015 and serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee, which is the committee that handles federal money for roads and rail.
