Norwood Selectman Endorses Geoff Diehl For Senate

NORWOOD, MA - From Diehl For Senate: Today Representative Geoff Diehl, the endorsed Republican candidate for U.S. Senate, announced that he has received the endorsement Norwood Selectman Tom Maloney.

“I’m proud to endorse Geoff Diehl for U.S. Senate. He has been a great leader on fighting to lower our tax burden, requiring transparency at the State House, and demanding fiscal accountability within state government. He will make a great United States Senator,” said Maloney.

“I am honored to have received Tom’s endorsement. His strong support and leadership will help us
win Norwood,” said Diehl.

“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 Maloney. “Norwood can count on Geoff to be there for them. He will be a hands-on Senator.”

Since being elected to the Board of Selectmen in 2016, Maloney has worked to promote fiscal
accountability and to encourage best practices in town government.

“Geoff is the only candidate with serious plans on ending fighting the opioid epidemic, helping our veterans, keeping taxes low, and growing our economy,” said Maloney. “I like that he will have a mobile office to travel the state.”

“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 21 st 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.

Diehl was the co-chairman for the ballot question that repealed the linkage of the gas tax to inflation.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.

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, former Speaker of the House Newt Gingrich, former Presidential candidate Herman Cain, Barnstable County Sheriff Jim Cummings, Westfield City Councilor Dan Allie, 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.
