Harry Kortikere's grassroots candidacy for State Rep- Somerville

I am a resident of Somerville and a candidate for State Representative from 27th Middlesex (Somerville)

During the course of my campaign, I have had the opportunity to talk to people of Somerville about their concerns on jobs, wages, healthcare costs, infrastructure issues and a myriad of other challenges and as a Committee member, have had the opportunity to weigh in on some of these issues. 

I am passionate about helping local & small businesses/start ups, increasing funding for trade schools, adjusting minimum wage for inflation, protecting workers rights, women’s rights, preserving our environment, promoting art & culture in our community and passing term limits for legislative offices.

Prior to joining Harvard, I spent over a decade in technology, business & consulting and I intend to bring a decade of experience in shaping policies that will help Massachusetts!
