Who Represents Shelburne
Shelburne sits in one state Senate district and one congressional district, and the whole town is covered by each, so there is no district line to check before you write. The town’s seat in the state House of Representatives is currently vacant, which is explained below. The Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Shelburne included. Between them these offices cover everything from a local road project to a federal farm rule.
State Senator
Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire District · Democrat
Paul W. Mark
State House: Room 504 · (617) 722-1625

The Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire district is a large, mostly rural district stretching across the hilltowns of four western counties. All of Shelburne sits inside it, so one senator carries the town’s questions on state road money, broadband, and school funding to the State House.
State Representative
Shelburne belongs to the 1st Franklin House district, and that seat is currently vacant. The previous representative left office in January 2026, and the seat is filled at the next state election, so until then no single representative speaks for the town in the House. When the seat is filled, this page will name the new member. In the meantime a Shelburne resident with a state issue can still work through the state Senator’s office and the district’s legislative staff.
In Washington
All of Shelburne sits in the 2nd Congressional District, which runs across central and 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.
2nd Congressional District · Democrat

You can reach both U.S. Senators, Elizabeth Warren and Edward J. Markey, through the statewide legislator lookup.
