I am proud to support state Rep. Dave Rogers for re-election in the upcoming Democratic primary on Sept. 1. Dave is a dedicated champion who consistently works to make state government a positive force for our community.
Throughout his tenure, Dave has delivered invaluable results directly to Belmont. He successfully secured millions in state funding for critical local projects, including the Belmont Community Path, the revitalization of Chenery Park, and campaigning for our new high school, library, and ice rink.
Beyond local infrastructure, Dave’s leadership at the State House has driven transformative progress across Massachusetts. As Chair of the Committee on Higher Education, he spearheaded efforts to establish free community college tuition and double state scholarship funding. His values shine through his advocacy for vulnerable communities—from creating the Immigrant Legal Defense Fund to defend immigrant rights, to authoring the landmark Pregnant Workers Fairness Act. Endorsed by Planned Parenthood, Dave remains an unwavering voice for reproductive freedom.
Furthermore, Dave has earned the Robert L. Terrell Fair Housing Award for his tireless efforts to solve the housing crisis. His advocacy for the Affordable Homes Act and a statewide right-to-counsel program demonstrates his deep commitment to keeping our communities affordable and inclusive.
Dave Rogers has the experience, vision, and deep dedication to Belmont that we need on Beacon Hill. I urge Belmont voters to join me in voting for Dave Rogers on September 1st.
Taylor Yates, Lawrence Lane
