Who Represents Saugus
Saugus is not represented by a single legislator but by a small team, and which one is yours can come down to your street. One state senator covers the whole town. Two state representatives split it by precinct. In Washington, one member of Congress and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators speak for all of Saugus at once.

3rd Essex District · Democrat
Brendan P. Crighton
Senator Crighton, a Lynn Democrat, has held the Third Essex District seat since 2018, after first serving in the House. All of Saugus sits inside his Senate district, and he chairs the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Transportation, the panel that shapes the roads, trains, and buses you use to get around.

What this seat decides
The state and federal seats
Your State Representative and your State Senator. State law: the driving age, the minimum wage, the bottle deposit, and Chapter 70, the formula that decides how much state money your schools get. They also carry a home rule petition to the State House when your town votes for something state law does not yet allow it to do.
Your member of Congress and your two US Senators. Federal law and federal money, and help with a federal agency like Social Security, the VA, or immigration when someone in your family needs it. They also nominate candidates to the US service academies.
