Rep. Frank Moran

I look forward to meeting you sometime again soon to continue our conversations about the challenges of health inequity in both Massachusetts and the Dominican Republic.

It was amazing to show him around the State House and chat with him about his groundbreaking work in the health care landscape. Thank you to Dr. Cruz for joining myself and some of my Merrimack Valley and Beacon Hill colleagues during your time in Boston.

I was honored to host Dr. Luis Antonio Cruz at the State House during his recent visit to Massachusetts.

I look forward to continuing this dialogue as we embark on this next chapter of transforming healthcare in the Merrimack Valley.

Community-centered systems like Merrimack Health are adept at responding to the ever-changing healthcare landscape and prioritizing the needs of its patients.

It was wonderful to join the Merrimack Valley state delegation and President and CEO Diana Richardson for this year's Merrimack Health Legislative Breakfast at its Lawrence Hospital campus.

Thank you to the Healey-Driscoll administration, Secretary Eng, and everyone at MassDOT for including Andover in this year's group of awardees. I look forward to seeing the project come to fruition and help guarantee safe and convenient travel throughout the Merrimack Valley.

The Tewksbury Street Sidewalk Project will include a new sidewalk from Yardley Road to Oak Street and ADA-compliant curb ramps, ensuring that all Andover residents and visitors will be able to get to reach their destination and enjoy the town's recreational spaces.

I am pleased to announce that the Town of Andover will be receiving $499,971 to improve pedestrian access to the MBTA Ballardvale Commuter Rail Station and the Ballardvale Playground.

Thank you to Maria Gonzalez Moeller, CEO of the Community Group, for inviting me to visit the school. I look forward to continuing to advocate for the CommunityDay students, families, and staff in my role as state representative.

CommunityDay plays an important role in supporting the success of children and families in their campus community. I am honored to continue to partner with CommunityDay's staff and administrators as they build meaningful learning experiences for students in Lawrence.

It was wonderful to join Commissioner of Elementary and Secondary Education Pedro Martinez at CommunityDay Charter Public School in Lawrence.

Lifeguards provide an essential service for children, parents, and individuals across the Commonwealth. I encourage those interested to take this opportunity to support your community and spend your summer outdoors by the water.

Want to make good money working outside this summer? Become a lifeguard for @MassDCR! Positions are open at pools and waterfronts in and around the 17th Essex District. Check out the QR code for details, as well as information about potential free training.

Accessibility must always be an ongoing effort to guarantee that all residents are able to participate fully in our public spaces. This funding represents a huge step forward in this critical mission and for the entire Lawrence community.

Huge thank you to ADA Coordinator Richard Rodriguez, MOD Executive Director Allan Motenko, the Lawrence Commission on Disability, and Mayor DePen᷈a for helping to secure this grant.

It was wonderful to join the Lawrence state delegation, community members and library staff on Tuesday to celebrate Lawrence Public Library receiving a $232,000 grant for accessibility improvements from the Massachusetts Office on Disability.
