Democratic 2022 Representative In General Court

Priscila S. Sousa

Priscila Sousa is Chair of the Framingham School Committee, immigrant, entrepreneur and community activist. Born in the city of Ipatinga in the state of Minas Gerais in Brazil, Priscila came to America with her parents when she was seven years old. Growing up on Weld Street, she rode the bus for hours every day to Potter Road Elementary School where she attended their English as a Second Language (ESL) program. 

Transparency & Ethics

As the Chair of the School Committee, handling questions and requests from the public and the media are a core part of my role. As a full time state representative, constituent services and working with the media will continue to be a major part of my work. 

  • Throughout this campaign, I have made my email and phone number (508-250-9439) available on my materials and website. You should know you can call, text or email me at any time to ask questions, share ideas or request assistance.
  • Opened a campaign headquarters at 68 South Street for people to feel welcome and volunteer. I believe it is critical to be in the heart of the community I serve. Hopefully, this headquarters, or somewhere like it, will be my state representative district office where I will hold regular office hours.
  • The media is an important part of our democracy. Answering questions in a timely manner and sharing good news with all media outlets will be a priority.
  • The Legislature is exempt from Open Meeting Law. I firmly believe the rules and regulations I have to follow as a member of the School Committee should apply to those serving in the Legislature. I will advocate for the rights of the media and more transparency in the State House, not less.
