Who Represents Waltham

Waltham is split between two state House districts, so the representative for your street depends on your ward and precinct. One state senator covers the entire city in the Massachusetts Senate. In Washington, all of Waltham is represented by one member of Congress and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators.
