“As a two-term Framingham City Council, Margareth worked collaboratively with many organizations and other elected officials to support the Work and Family Mobility Act.

She employs her deep knowledge, steadfast passion, and diverse life experiences to successfully advocate to improve the lives of area residents,” said the Center.
“As state representative, Margareth will bring greater political inclusiveness and participation to the democratic process. She will be a political force at the local and state levels. Margareth Shepard will contribute to promote social and economic justice that benefits all, and the Brazilian Policy Center is honored to support her candidacy for state representative in the 6th Middlesex District,” said the Center.
