Who Represents Peru

All of Peru sits in a single state representative district and a single state senate district, so unlike some towns you do not have to check your address to know who speaks for you on Beacon Hill. One state representative, one state senator, and one member of Congress cover the whole town, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Peru included. Five names on this page, and between them they cover everything from a local road project to a federal farm bill.

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. All of Peru is in the 1st Berkshire District, so there is no district line to check before you write.

State Senator

The Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire district reaches across four counties of western Massachusetts, so one senator carries the roads, broadband, and school-funding questions of a wide rural region. All of Peru sits inside it.

In Washington

All of Peru sits in the 1st Congressional District, which covers western Massachusetts. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
