David M. Rogers
(Dem)
Candidate for State Representative - Twenty-Fourth Middlesex District
Race profile >>
Why are you running?
I am running for office because I deeply believe in public service and have been involved in public policy issues throughout my life.
I spent time in the public sector in Washington, DC, at the White House, and on Capitol Hill learning how to advance policy and get results. I also understand private sector concerns based on many years as a business lawyer.
Having both public and private experience well prepares me to address challenges facing our district and state.
In personally visiting over 2,200 homes over the past five months, I have learned about the salient issues like preserving the Silver Maple Forest or properly addressing flooding problems.
Despite strong public schools, I would still be an advocate for modifying the funding formula to secure greater educational resources.
With major transportation funding issues on the state level, the fiscal crisis in turn impacts us on a local level. We need a long-term solution that improves Red Line service and protects the bus lines so many of us depend on.
I have reached out to every part of the district throughout this campaign, and I will work just as hard to represent you if I am elected.
