Who Represents Southwick

All of Southwick sits in a single state representative district, a single state senate district, and a single congressional district, so unlike some of its neighbors there is no address line to check: the same five people speak for every street in town. One state representative and one state senator carry the town on Beacon Hill, one member of Congress carries it in the U.S. House, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the whole state, Southwick included.

State Senator

The Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire district is one of the largest in the state by land, reaching from the Berkshires across to western Hampden County. All of Southwick sits inside it, so a state senator carrying the region’s water, housing and school-funding questions is the same one who answers to Southwick, with no district line to check before you write.

State Representative

Southwick lies wholly within the 3rd Hampden House district, so one representative speaks for the entire town.

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 Southwick residents.

In Washington

All of Southwick sits in the 1st Congressional District, held by Richard E. Neal, which covers much of 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.
