IN TIMES LIKE THESE,
WE NEED A GUY LIKE HIM.
COMMON MAN, UNCOMMON LEADER
Stephen grew up in the bricks of Boston’s public housing, worked for nearly 20 years as a structural Ironworker, became a labor leader, an attorney and a United States Congressman. He knows what it’s like to struggle and he fights every day to give everyone the chance to succeed.
MY PROMISE TO YOU
I’ve spent my entire life fighting for working families, eighteen of those years spent in a pair of work boots as an Ironworker. And I’m proud to say that when I was elected to Congress, I never left my working class values behind.
I know that families in our district are struggling. People tell me every day that they are working more, and receiving less. Wages are stagnant, costs are rising and Covid-19 has revealed to many what we already knew – people are just barely hanging on.
I’ve worked every day in Congress for policies that will make life better for you and your family – fair wages and economic security, funding for higher education, housing assistance, preserving Social Security, protecting against threats to our environment, and health care that is affordable and accessible.
Our challenges are great, but my promise to you remains that same: I will go to Congress every day to fight for the people of our district and to be your voice in the halls of power. I will continue to be accessible to you, transparent in my work and unafraid to stand up on your behalf.
“Now more than ever, we need leaders like Stephen Lynch who lead with integrity, honesty, and common sense.”
