At the most recent debate, Rep. Decker asked that we focus our contrasts on her legislative record rather than broader criticism of the State House. Below are several key differences between our records:
EVAN MCKAY
Fighting for the many, not the few.
✓ Helped build the worker coalition to tax the rich
✓ Fights for truly affordable housing and will stand up to corporate landlords and big real estate
✓ Organized to audit the Legislature and proudly endorsed by State Auditor Diana DiZoglio
✓ Nearly 60% of donations from Cambridge, took People’s Pledge against dark money in politics
REP. MARJORIE DECKER
Protecting politicans and the status quo.
X Voted for tax cuts to the rich, refused to fight corporate tax giveaways in the House budget
X Accepts maximum donations from real estate interests and those who profit from the housing crisis
X Voted to constrain the audit of the legislature

X Fewer than 30% of donations from Cambridge, refused to take People's Pledge
