Adam Gomez

A father and small business owner, Sen. Gomez comes from working people in the North End of Springfield. He is the first Afro-Latino and the first Puerto Rican to serve in the Massachusetts Senate. Sen. Adam Gomez has been a member of Neighbor to Neighbor since 2014, two years before he won his first-ever bid for elected office. Sen. Gomez served on the Springfield City Council for four years before his successful run for Hampden District State Senator. While in the State Senate, Sen. Gomez has remained loyal to the issues he worked on as a city councilor, continuing to lead on gun violence, criminal justice reform, immigrants’ rights, jobs, and education at the neighborhood level while representing Springfield in statewide decisions on housing, racial justice and more every day. His experience working within different communities fighting at the local, state, and federal levels for his constituents’ benefit makes him the right candidate to represent the Hampden district. He listens, fights for, and responds swiftly to community needs.
