Dedham Republican Committee Chair Backs Diehl

From Geoff Diehl for U.S. Senate: Today Representative Geoff Diehl, the endorsed Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, announced that he has received the endorsement Republican Town Committee Chairman Adrienne Albani.

“Geoff is the only true grassroots candidate with solid accomplishments for the people of Massachusetts. I was impressed from the moment I met him two years ago - at a teen challenge event - he was combating the opioid crisis long before any other candidate. He is leagues ahead of his opponents and ready to hit the ground running in D.C.,” said Albani.

“I am honored to have received Adrienne’s endorsement. Her strong support will help us win Dedham,” said Diehl.

“Dedham is Diehl country! Geoff is an extremely hard worker. I especially admire his courage of taking on the special interest groups to repeal automatic gas tax hikes. His efforts saved taxpayers $2 billion,” said Albani.

Albani has been the Dedham Republican Town Committee Chairman since 2013 and will be Diehl campaign’s town coordinator for Dedham. Her committee is active in the community by marching in the Annual Flag Day Parade, hosting a table at Dedham Day, a water stop at the James Joyce ramble, hosting local candidates and supporting other local RTCs. We host speakers, candidates, special events and have meetings bi-monthly business meetings at the Endicott Estate in Dedham.

“Geoff is the only candidate with serious plans on ending illegal immigration, fighting the opioid epidemic, helping our veterans, keeping taxes low, and growing our economy,” said Albani.

Diehl was the co-chairman for the ballot question that repealed the linkage of the gas tax to inflation. If the law had remained in place, the gas tax would have increased every year. Diehl has saved taxpayers from 3 gas tax hikes already.

“Warren has failed to help Massachusetts taxpayers. We need a Senator who will stand up for the hard working people of Massachusetts. While Senator Warren has focused on putting money in her wallet selling books, I have focused on putting money into your wallet,” added Diehl.

“Massachusetts is too great for a part-time Senator. We need a Senator who will focus on the citizens of the Commonwealth,” said Diehl. “From the time you wake up in the morning and until you go to bed in the evening you should be working to help the people of Massachusetts. I think people should come first ahead of oneself. Our Senator needs to do their job by putting you first!”

Diehl is disappointed with Senator Warren who is more focused on her national profile rather than working in the best interest of Massachusetts. One key example of this, Diehl pointed out, was how she voted against the 21st Century Cures Act.

“If she cared about our state, she wouldn’t have voted against a bipartisan measure to promote medical innovation and the development of new treatments for cancer and other diseases. Massachusetts is a medical research leader and she still voted against the bill,” said Diehl. “Moreover, Warren would not have voted to shut down the federal government.”

Diehl won the Republican convention by a thirty point margin. He has been earning many endorsements including: the Watertown Republican Town Committee, the Hanson Republican Town Committee, the Bourne Republican Town Committee, the East Bridgewater Republican Town Committee, the Dighton Republican Town Committee, Boston Ward 9 Republican Committee, the Somerville Republican City Committee, the Whitman Republican Town Committee, the Dracut Republican Town Committee, Representatives Shaunna O’Connell, Marc Lombardo, Jim Lyons, Lenny Mirra, Nick Boldyga and Peter Durant, Youth Conservatives of Massachusetts, all of the Sudbury delegates to the convention, former New England Patriots Fred Smerlas, Steve Grogan, and Matt Light, Red Sox Champion Curt Schilling, and John Dennis, to name a few. Diehl was the first candidate to receive a major law enforcement endorsement. The Norfolk County Correction Officers have thrown their weight behind Diehl.
