Templeton Legislators
Who Represents Templeton
Templeton sits whole inside one state senate district and one state house district, so unlike some towns it is not split, and the same names speak for every address in town. One state senator, one state representative, and one member of Congress cover Templeton, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators represent the entire state, Templeton included. Five names on this page, and between them they carry everything from a local road project to a federal farm bill.
State Senator
Worcester and Hampshire District · Republican
Peter J. Durant
State House: (617) 722-1540
Email: peter.durant@masenate.gov
All of Templeton sits inside the Worcester and Hampshire senate district, which runs across a group of north-central and western Massachusetts towns, so there is no district line to check before you write. A state senator votes the state budget, files and shapes bills, and can press a state agency on a resident’s behalf.
State Representative
Templeton is not split, so one representative speaks for the whole town on Beacon Hill.
2nd Worcester District · Democrat
Jonathan D. Zlotnik
State House: (617) 722-2582
Email: jon.zlotnik@mahouse.gov
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 Templeton residents.
In Washington
All of Templeton sits in the 2nd Congressional District, held by James P. McGovern. Massachusetts is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
