“Massachusetts has always been a national leader. We fought at Bunker Hill before the Declaration of Independence, signed our Constitution before the Philadelphia Convention, armed the first black regiment of the Civil War, and legalized same-sex marriage before any state of the union. I’m proud to represent the forward-thinking people of the Massachusetts Fourth as we strive to realize the core American promise of equal opportunity.” - Jake Auchincloss
