Progressive Independent for Governor.
A proud daughter of Massachusetts. For seven generations, my family has made the Commonwealth our home. I'm running for Governor because I believe our state should work for all of us, not just a privileged few.
I was raised by people who believed that ordinary people, working together, can create meaningful change. That’s why I became a community organizer. That's why I became a criminal defense attorney, and that's why, for more than 15 years, I have been a leader in the fight for racial justice and criminal legal reform.
All my life, I have been a member of the Democratic Party. But the more I organized for change, the more resistance I met from the Democratic Party Machine. The Democrats took the support of our communities for granted while cashing checks from corporate donors.
I am running to build the Massachusetts we have never had. A government that belongs to the people, not the establishment duopoly of corporate Democrats and Republicans. A government that listens to working families, centers communities, and delivers real solutions on housing, healthcare, affordability, education, and justice.
Massachusetts residents are tired of being told the economy is doing better than ever. But for 99% of us, it's never been harder to get by. Maura Healey and state leadership put their donors' interests before working people. We need a governor who uses their office to deliver for working Bay Staters, not the Donor Class.
