Fellow progressive voters of the 1st Franklin District: we are inspired by Francia Wisnewski’s campaign for state representative and are enthusiastically supporting her candidacy.

Francia is a former elected official (Greenfield School Committee) and a dedicated advocate for children and families who has capably served on many boards and committees throughout the Pioneer Valley for the past 17 years (check out electfrancia.com to learn more). She has a deep understanding of the issues facing our district, as well as the courage, skill and heart to represent us all effectively at the state level.

Francia impresses us as a candidate and as a human being. It’s an added bonus that while the Trump administration doubles down on its anti-immigrant policies, we have the opportunity to send a qualified, strong, Latina immigrant woman to Beacon Hill, and help correct the unbalanced representation of women and minorities that exists in all levels of our government.

In a crowded campaign field, Francia stands out for her experience, her unique perspective and her deep commitment to our communities. We can’t wait to vote for Francia on Sept. 4 and hope you will join us.
