Rob's brother Doug speaking as City Councilor |
My brother Doug is running for Councilor at Large in my hometown. He's now got two opponents, and he's been a councilor for 10 years! He also works full time AND teaches at Suffolk University. Doug has always been a rock for me, and cares passionately about our hometown. I've never seen someone work so hard to make the citizens happy. In fact, Tom and I want him to run for Congress.
He served five terms as Quincy’s Ward 5 City Councilor, including
one term as City Council President. He also served as Chairman of
the City Council’s Downtown and Economic Development Committee helping
to steer historic votes that will provide the framework for $1.6 billion
in private investment in Quincy Center. He’s also supported changes to
strengthen the city’s Responsible Employer Ordinance. He's cleaned the city beaches, and organized cleanups throughout the
city, stenciled drains that informed people that waste water goes
directly to the beach.
As an older brother, I've found inspiration, strength and encouragement from Doug throughout my entire life. The one person throughout my entire life that's ALWAYS been there, through everything, is my brother Doug. When my parents questioned my moving to Washington, DC, or going back to school for a meteorology degree, Doug backed me. He was also there when I came out to my parents, and that was really difficult. I couldn't ask for a better brother. He's always been a best friend throughout my entire life- and he CARES about everyone - no exceptions.Below is info about the accomplishments he's made.
