"Too many families are suffering and millions of people are out of work while Washington plays political games. With your help, I'll work to get our economy turned around, put people back to work, and help deliver the results that Massachusetts families need from Congress."
-Bill Keating
As District Attorney, Bill Keating pursued some of Massachusetts' toughest cases, making our communities safer and stronger. His role as District Attorney has given him a unique view of the needs of our families, children and communities, needs that are being overlooked in Washington.
If elected to Congress, Bill will bring the same characteristics and qualities to Washington that enabled him to get results for Massachusetts' families: integrity, independence and vision. In Congress, Bill will fight to get the result's our families deserve.
