Chelmsford Federation of Teachers Endorses Dolan

Late last week, the Chelmsford Federation of Teachers has announced their endorsement in the Third Middlesex Senate District will go to Mara Dolan (D-Concord).

The endorsement is the latest in a string that includes State Senator Jamie Eldridge (D-Acton), State Senator Dan Wolf (D-Harwich), and Congressman James Capuano (D-Somerville).

"Mara Dolan will be the most effective advocate in the Massachusetts State Senate for Chelmsford’s public schools and public school teachers," said Chelmsford Federation of Teachers president Kathryn Chamberlain. "She is a woman who has worked in public service all her life, and her commitment to public education sets her apart from the other candidates in the Third Middlesex State Senate race."

Dolan was pleased to receive the union's support, noting that Chelmsford students deserve the best public schools, and that schools are vital in economic issues.

"A well-educated workforce drives our economy.  Great public schools with great public school teachers help everyone succeed," said Dolan. "We need to build schools kids love, where their natural curiosity and desire to succeed will be encouraged."

More information on Dolan is available on her website.
