Senate Candidate Brings Hammar Time To Wakefield

A release from Samantha Hammar, candidate for the Middlesex Fifth District State Senate seat:

WAKEFIELD, MA — Democratic candidate Samantha Hammar invites the Wakefield community to join her for a campaign event Tuesday, April 10, at Public Kitchen on Main Street.

The event will give voters a chance to hear about Hammar’s progressive vision for Massachusetts. Hammar is a working mother with 12 years of experience in the public sector. She recently served as Chair of the Melrose Democrats and on the Melrose Commission on Women.

“Some people think I’m running on ‘women’s issues’,” says Hammar. “But student loan debt, our housing crisis, and access to affordable child and senior care are issues that affect everyone -- they just happen to be this woman’s issues.” The Tuesday gathering is part of an ongoing series of “Hammar Time” events scheduled across the Fifth Middlesex District.

“We’ve had a tremendous response so far," said campaign manager Yael Mazor-Garfinkle. "Sam’s message really resonates with voters who are looking for bold, new leadership. She’s passionate about making Beacon Hill work better for working families... We’re excited for folks in Wakefield to feel that energy. ”
