My immense gratitude to these schools is why I ran for School Committee in Revere and am running for State Senate now.” INFO | FROM Page 8 er, these are not normal times as we all know from this pandemic. I decided to support Anthony D’Ambrosio because I thought it was a time for a new face and a fresh outlook on public service. To be honest, I also was very upset that Edwards decided to oppose Columbus Day and replace it with Indigenous Peoples Day. I have no problem with giving Native Americans a holiday but not Columbus Day. Edwards has expressed in print that she opposes Columbus and therefore his holiday, and appears to tell Italian Americans we need to pick a better role model or hero to honor. I get to decide who my heroes are and not some woke politician. However, the information found in The Revere Advocate front page story on Edwards and her real estate history is something voters need to know before carefully choosing which candidate to serve as their voice up on Beacon Hill. If the facts in this news story are verifi able, the facts seem damning. I await Edwards’ response to this Revere Advocate blockbuster of a story.

I’m running because it is time for a new generation of outsiders to upend business as usual on Beacon Hill. The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted life as we know it in virtually every way imaginable. Our current leaders are failing in their obligations to Massachusetts residents. I’m unbeholden to anyone. I’m unafraid to shake things up and I’m unafraid to ask the tough questions. Today, I’m asking for your vote. “As I travel across this District, voters consistently tell me how government has failed them,” said D’Ambrosio. “They feel left out, ignored and sold out by politicians willing to say or do anything to get elected. I have never forgotten where I came from and why I want to serve my community. My passion and commitment to hard work comes directly from my family who taught me early in life the value of public service. As State Senator, I will be unafraid to stand up for those left behind and voiceless because I only work for YOU.”
