Leigh Davis is already stepping up to the plate as promised for disability rights, housing advocacy, and putting people like myself first and foremost.

"This ceremony wasn’t just about me — it was for the families, workers, and individuals of the 3rd Berkshire District," Davis wrote in a Facebook post. "Providing meaningful constituent services will be at the heart of everything we do, and I’m here to serve you.”

“Sen. Mark and Reps. Farley-Bouvier and Barrett have been tireless advocates for the Berkshires, and I look forward to joining them and building on their legacy,” said Davis.

"As we work to make Massachusetts a more affordable place to live, it's important that we have leaders like Leigh on our side who will bring thoughtful solutions to the table,” said Gov. Healey.

At the candidates forum on Wednesday, Sept. 25, Davis said that she “was just on the phone with the governor a couple of days ago” and that the campaign had not yet made a formal announcement about the endorsement.

"For years, Leigh has been a strong advocate for her community, and as state representative, she will be a leader in the fight for workers’ rights, environmental sustainability, and housing justice," said Sen. Warren.

"Reproductive freedom is on the ballot in every race across New England this Election Day," said Reproductive Equity Now President Rebecca Hart Holder. "That is why it is so important that we elect reproductive equity champions up and down the ballot this November and why we’re proud to support Leigh Davis."

Davis will now go on to the general election in November against Lenox Select Board member Marybeth Mitts.

“The divide between climate champions and climate delayers in our legislature is stark. We need representatives who do not simply accept the broken status quo,” said 350 Mass Action Political Coordinator Dan Zackin.
