Atkins committed to her district

Concord -

To the editor:

Cory Atkins, our state representative, is just as she says: “fiercely committed to working hard” for her constituents and the communities she represents.

Education funding is always at the top of her list, and this year she was successful in getting a 9.1 percent increase in state education aid for Concord. In addition she worked with the Concord School Committee and the state School Building Authority to secure state reimbursement for Concord’s two new schools.

As House chairman of the Science and Technology Caucus, Cory is working to promote programs that will create new jobs in Massachusetts in the life sciences and the bio-tech sectors.

Cory is deeply concerned with the needs of her constituents and the commonwealth as a whole.

I support Cory Atkins, and I believe she deserves your vote to continue representing us for another two years.
