“Senator Becca Rausch truly embodies what it means to be a reproductive equity champion. She played an integral role in passing the latest reproductive health care bill, authoring provisions to expand access to abortion care and eliminate access deserts. She was one of the staunchest advocates for the ROE Act, led successful legislation to create a maternal health equity commission, and boosted funding to combat crisis pregnancy centers. Senator Rausch’s leadership on Beacon Hill is critical to our collective fight for reproductive freedom. We are proud to again endorse her for re-election to the Massachusetts Senate."
- Rebecca Hart Holder, Executive Director, Reproductive Equity Now

“Becca Rausch has been a strong leader on environmental causes, particularly on building emissions and reducing waste during her time in the Senate,” said Casey Bowers, Executive Director of the ELM Action Fund. “We are thrilled to support her ongoing efforts to drive Massachusetts towards a greener future.”

“MWPC is proud to endorse State Senator Becca Rausch. We need bold leaders like Senator Rausch who not only embody their community’s core values, but who recognize that transforming the face of our government is critical. We need more women in office. Representation matters. Leading by example matters. We are confident that Senator Rausch is a strong leader who will act with care, urgency, and competence in the Norfolk, Worcester and Middlesex District. A vote for Senator Rausch is a vote for Norfolk, Worcester and Middlesex District’s brighter future.”

American Federation of Teachers - Massachusetts

"We are thrilled to once again endorse our labor champion, Senator Becca Rausch. Time after time, Becca has stepped up pre and post pandemic and always puts students and workers first. We are proud to support her re-election campaign and will do everything we can to ensure her return to the State Senate." Beth Kontos, President

“The BTU is proud to endorse Senator Becca Rausch in her re-election campaign for State Senate. Senator Rausch has been integral in passing legislation and advocating for housing justice, which is a major pillar of our union’s priorities. We know that Senator Rausch will continue to work in the best interest of the citizens of the Norfolk, Worcester and Middlesex District and we are proud to support her campaign."
- Jessica Tang, President

“On behalf of the Massachusetts AFL-CIO and our nearly half a million members across the Commonwealth, I am proud to announce our endorsement of Senator Becca Rausch for re-election in the Norfolk, Worcester, and Middlesex District. Whether fighting for quality public education or standing up for strong wages and benefits, Senator Rausch has a proven track record of standing with working people. From Senator Rausch’s unwavering support for collective bargaining and organizing efforts to her continued advocacy on the issues that matter to working people, we know that Senator Rausch will continue to be a leader for working families in her district and at the State House.”
-Steven A. Tolman, President

Massachusetts Organization of State Engineers & Scientists

"State Senator Becca Rausch has a 100% on our Progressive Scorecard, and she's earned it. She has been a powerful advocate for reproductive justice, climate action, public health, voting rights, and government transparency. She has put forth the most comprehensive plans to modernize our election laws and was one of the most outspoken voices against the inequities of the state’s COVID response, introducing the most comprehensive legislation to advance vaccine equity. She’s an independent voice in a Legislature where independent voices are rare and centers the most marginalized in her policymaking. She’s done great work in her two terms so far and will continue to do so if re-elected."
