Who Represents Washington
The whole town of Washington sits in one state representative district, one state senate district, and one congressional district, so there is no address line to check before you write. Five names cover you: one state representative and one state senator on Beacon Hill, one member of Congress, and the Commonwealth’s two U.S. senators. Between them they carry everything from a rural road grant to a federal broadband program.
State Senator
Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire District · Democrat
Paul Mark
State House: Room 504 · (617) 722-1625
Email: paul.mark@masenate.gov
The Berkshire, Hampden, Franklin and Hampshire district stretches across the western Massachusetts hilltowns, so one senator carries the road, broadband, housing and school funding questions of dozens of small communities. All of Washington sits inside it.
State Representative
3rd Berkshire District · Democrat
Leigh Davis
State House: Room 134 · (617) 722-2400
Email: leigh.davis@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. All of Washington sits in the 3rd Berkshire District, so this is the House member who answers for the whole town.
In Congress
All of Washington sits in the 1st Congressional District, which covers western Massachusetts. The Commonwealth is represented in the U.S. Senate by Elizabeth Warren, the senior senator, and Edward J. Markey, the junior senator, both Democrats.
1st Congressional District · Democrat
Richard E. Neal
Washington, D.C.: 372 Cannon House Office Building · 202-225-5601
