In 2012, Marjorie Decker was elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives representing the 25th Middlesex District, including parts of the Cambridge neighborhoods of West, North, Riverside, Cambridgeport and mid-Cambridge. Representative Decker is both humbled and proud to serve the diverse and vibrant citizens of Cambridge and help to make it the strongest community it can be.
We never have to wait long for the next painful reminder of the pressing importance of acting to mitigate the impacts of climate change. We have a responsibility to care for our environment using every possible tool. I was proud to sponsor a bill that calls for Massachusetts to rely 100% on renewable energy. If passed, Massachusetts would be the first state in the nation to transition its entire grid to renewables. I have also filed a bill that will divest state pension funds from coal and fossil fuels.
