Thanks to State Representative Jeff Roy for making some time in his schedule to join me for a virtual conversation about what’s happening in the state government and his campaign for re-election in November 2022. Jeff represents the 10th Norfolk District and has served as the Chairperson of the Joint Committee on Telecommunications, Utilities & Energy in this current term.
A quick overview of Jeff
- Development of political career, School Committee, Town Council, then State Rep
- Newsletter, office hours
- Video from House floor – periodic, topical
- More Perfect Union – broad topics on regular schedule
- Frank Presents – recent overview
- Making Sense of Climate – 2 episodes, likely more on the roadmap to 2050
- Presidential library tours shared at Franklin Historical Museum
- PanMass ride, Ben Gardner’s Boat
- SAFE Coalition, Franklin Food Pantry and other local nonprofits
This listing may have left something out, but it leads me to two observations:
- Lifelong learner
- Looking for meaningful challenges
Can you develop your thoughts on those?
Can you explore:
- How you juggle home/family life with public work
- Opportunities for improvements in transparency of State House deliberations, information
The audio segment runs about 50 minutes, so listen in to my conversation with State Representative Jeff Roy
