Rep. Jake Auchincloss, of Massachusetts, announces birth of third child

NEWTON, Mass. —Rep. Jake Auchincloss, a two-term Democrat from Massachusetts, announced the birth of his third child on Tuesday.

"Now a family of five!" he tweeted. "Teddy and Grace have lots of hugs and kisses for their new baby sister, Audrey." 

His office said baby Audrey was born on Friday.

"Everyone is doing well and thrilled to be at home to spend time together," Auchincloss' office wrote in an email to supporters.

The 35-year-old representative is a native of Newton and a U.S. Marine Corps veteran who was first elected to Congress in 2020. Auchincloss represents the 4th congressional district of Massachusetts.

The district includes the hometown of the National Guardsman, Jack Teixeira, who has been charged with leaking highly-classified military documents. Auchincloss was among the members of Congress briefed on that case and spoke afterward.

He also made history in January when his staff announced a speech he had read on the floor of the U.S. House was actually written by the online AI chatbot, ChatGPT.
