Rosenberg was proud to represent the Hampshire, Franklin & Worcester County district in the Massachusetts Senate from 1991 to 2018 and served as Senate President from 2015 to 2017. Throughout his career in public service, he has remained steadfastly committed to Massachusetts values – like supporting working families, investment in the arts and culture, protecting our environment, increasing government transparency, and ensuring all students have the opportunity to succeed. Stan is a 1977 graduate of UMass Amherst, where he earned a B.A. in Community Development & Arts Management. Stan worked at UMass Amherst for eight years, first as the founding Director of the Arts Extension Service and then as Director of the Community Development and Human Service Programs in the Division of Continuing Education. It was also during this time that he began his work in public service as an aide to former State Senator and Congressman John Olver. Before being elected to the Senate in 1991, he was elected to the Massachusetts House in 1987, where he has been entrusted by his colleagues with leadership positions such as Majority Leader and Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways and Means. To his neighbors in the Pioneer Valley, Stan is seen as an accessible reformer and a pragmatic progressive. Western Mass values like inclusion and equality inform his worldview – Stan was a chief strategist behind a 2000 bill aimed at curtailing racial profiling, and a key leader in the battle on Beacon Hill to preserve the newly-won right of same-sex marriage in 2003. Further, Stan authored legislation to establish the Cultural Facilities Fund, a grant program to support and maintain cultural facilities and sponsored an amendment to pave the way for state cultural districts, which help municipalities shape their own local, unique, cultural identity to encourage greater cultural development and tourism. Stan believes that government works better when a diversity of viewpoints are heard. During his time as President, he transformed the culture of the Senate by empowering and engaging his colleagues in a model he calls “Shared Leadership,” which encourages participation and cooperation. He has embraced technology and community outreach, creating a more accessible, modern and engaged Senate which reacts quickly to the needs of voters. Stan’s push to make government more responsive stretches back to 1993, when he co-authored the “Motor Voter” bill to modernize our voting system and boost voter turnout. He was later asked two times to redraw Massachusetts’ political boundaries during the redistricting process, earning high praise the second time for an exceptionally transparent process which created a new minority-majority district.

Stan’s attention seldom strays far from fighting for working families and growing our economy from the bottom up. As Chair of the Senate Committee on Ways & Means, he passed a long-overdue wage hike for the Commonwealth’s lowest-paid human service workers. His tireless work to increase funding for education from early childhood to college has driven the creation of an innovation economy which keeps Massachusetts competitive. In 1998 he secured passage of the first Massachusetts Earned Income Tax Credit with a state match of 15% of the federal credit. In 2015, he spearheaded the first EITC increase since its inception, helping over 400,000 working families by increasing it to 23% of the federal level. As Majority Leader, he helped secure votes to increase the minimum wage in three steps to $11/ hour, giving low-wage workers a much-needed raise. Months into his tenure as Senate President, he launched an ambitious “WorkFirst” Program to divert the long-term unemployed and underemployed into stable employment and off government assistance. To his friends and colleagues, Stan possesses a strong moral compass towards what is right. He is a self-proclaimed “workaholic” and can often found attending church suppers and community meetings, enjoying farmers’ markets, auctioning pies, and exploring new restaurants. In his spare time he enjoys gardening, reading, traveling, languages, and cooking – especially his “famous” tomato sauce. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/595d212fd482e940948e215d/1557266947255-E593HM57NS0MMPZBZJPZ/Ben+Smith.jpg Trainers and Staff - Ben Smith Before joining the Maryland Democratic Party as Executive Director, Ben Smith co-founded and led a Baltimore-based political consulting firm.
