Andrew Fitch for State Rep Fitch for the Future

Working hard to build a bright, successful, and affordable future for our region. Building a Better North Adams

08/31/2026

Before you vote on Tuesday, September 1st, I want to remind you what this campaign is all about.

Economic Opportunity. Affordability. Regional Collaboration.

These have been my campaign pillars from the beginning, and they represent the kind of bright, successful, and affordable future I want to build for all of us.

I have the experience, skills, temperament, and fresh ideas to serve as your State Representative, and I’m ready to get to work. Visit my website to read more about my priorities, the projects I want to get done, and the policy areas I’m focused on:

Please vote for me, Andrew Fitch, on Tuesday, September 1st, between 7:00 AM and 8:00 PM at your municipality’s polling location. And bring someone with you!

I’m grateful for every minute of volunteer time, every bit of conversation I've had at your doors or community events, and every vote. Thank you for your support!

It’s the last weekend before the Sept. 1st Primary, and my whole campaign team is really stepping up.

Today was a perfect example. We tabled at Lanesborough Day, had folks standing out in Adams and Williamstown, and attended Pickle Fest in Clarksburg. A big thank you to the organizers of each event! I worked a shift at Steeple City Social this evening, but even there, I found myself talking with people about the campaign and the future of our district.

What’s clear to me is that we are gaining momentum. I’m having great conversations with so many people across the 1st Berkshire District, and I’m hearing again and again that people are connecting with my platform and vision for what comes next.

But it’s also clear to me that we won’t win this race unless the people around us remember to vote on Tuesday, September 1st. So please, make a plan to vote for yourself and pull some friends along with you too. Talk to your neighbors. Call your family. Remind the people you care about that this election matters.

My friends and family members are already coming to North Adams to help us get out the vote. We have a lot more work to do, but I’m incredibly excited to get back out there tomorrow.

If you’re around Motorama in North Adams on Sunday, I’ll see you there!

Let’s finish this together.

I’ve talked to thousands of people during my campaign for State Representative.

Far and away, the biggest concerns are about taxes, affordability, and being able to age in place.

That’s why I’ve worked to expand the tax base here in North Adams and why I think economic development and collaboration are the keys to affordability. It’s also why, as a Councilor, I’ve brought awareness to programs like the Home Modification Loan Program (HMLP) and established an Affordable Housing Trust, a special board dedicated to expanding homeownership opportunities and affordable housing.

Steady futures, these days, require creative solutions. That’s why I’m asking for your vote on September 1–to bring new ideas and solutions to the First District while we also work to keep things affordable for our elders, young families and young professionals. Don’t forget to vote September 1!

The importance of regional collaboration - we are stronger together.

The challenges facing the Berkshires don’t stop at town lines. Housing, transportation, healthcare, education, infrastructure, and economic development are regional issues, which require regional solutions. Collaboration isn’t about giving up local control. It’s about sharing resources, expertise, and ideas so our communities can accomplish more together than any one of us could alone.

I leverage collaboration in every aspect of life. From starting Steeple City Social with an amazing business partner to leveraging the expertise of community groups to inform my City Council policy work, I listen to and learn from others, often.

As your State Representative, I’ll work to bring our 13 communities together, strengthen partnerships among municipal leaders, businesses, nonprofits, schools, and state agencies to build a stronger, more unified voice on Beacon Hill. I will be present and engaged, regularly. I will be in the trenches with you.

Please make a plan to vote on or before September 1st, folks! The time for change is now.

We are stronger together.

We are just days away from the Primary! Early voting is underway, or you can vote on Primary Day, Tuesday, September 1.

I want your vote. But I also respect you enough not to harass you for it. That’s why, as we enter the final days, you won’t get a barrage of anonymous robocalls or automated text messages from me. That’s intentional.

Instead, I'm going to continue knocking on doors, attending community events, and having real, meaningful conversations with residents of our district. I hope to see you around the 1st Berkshire District this week.

Please vote on or before September 1. And help someone else vote too!

08/25/2026

One week until the Sept. 1 Primary!

Early voting is underway, or you can vote on Primary Day, Tuesday, September 1.

Over the past several months, I’ve had thousands of conversations with people across all 13 municipalities of the 1st Berkshire District. I’ve knocked on doors, sat around tables, visited businesses and community events, answered questions, and listened.

Those conversations have reinforced why I entered this race: I believe our region is ready to build toward what comes next, with representation that delivers for people today while building toward where we need to be tomorrow.

If I’m asking for the responsibility of representing you, I believe you deserve my time, attention, and an actual conversation, not just during a campaign, but long after it.

So yes, I’m asking for your vote.

Please make a plan to vote, and then help someone else make a plan, too. Talk to your neighbors. Call your friends and family. Help someone get to the polls.

Every vote matters. Please vote on or before September 1.

Thank you!

Day 6: I’m done with my 1st Berkshire District bike trek!

What a great adventure and such a fun way to campaign for State Representative. Over six days, I rode through all 13 municipalities of the 1st Berkshire District, meeting residents, visiting local businesses, exploring our communities, and getting a firsthand look at the places and projects that make this district special.

Yesterday, I rode the final 11.9 miles from the Williamstown Farmers Market through Clarksburg and back home to downtown North Adams.

I started my morning at the Williamstown Farmers Market, enjoying conversations, coffee, music, and ceramics before heading out to knock doors in the Cole Avenue neighborhood. I took a quick break at Tourists Hotel for a Lime in the Coconut, then continued toward Clarksburg, where I stumbled upon a much-needed and delicious snack from Pizzapocalypse Food Truck at North Adams Commons.

By the end of the journey, I had ridden 94.1 miles, gotten more of a tan, achieved noticeably thicker thighs, and felt a deeper sense of love for our district.

The real adventure was the people I met along the way. The conversations at doorsteps, businesses, farms, trails, markets, and roadsides gave me even more insight into what our communities need and what we can accomplish together. Thank you to everyone who stopped to chat, offered encouragement, shared a recommendation, opened their door, or helped keep me fueled along the way.

This is the kind of State Representative I want to be for our District. I can't promise I'll always ride a bike multiple miles each day, but I can promise I will be very present in each of our communities.

Now, one more thing: the Primary is just 10 days away.

If you haven't voted yet, make a plan to vote on or before September 1st.

Today I rode 15.2 miles, climbing 666 feet and descending 1,138 feet, making my way through Hancock, Lanesborough, New Ashford, and Williamstown.

Along the way, I stopped in to grab a snack, have a drink, and chat with Jason, the owner of The Country Store in Hancock. I also stopped to talk with the owners of Ramblewild and say hello to the manager of The Springs Motel, as well as many of the 1st Berkshire residents at their front doors.

In New Ashford, I visited the 1792 School House, an incredible piece of our history and the site of the first vote cast by a woman in a national election. Places like this are reminders of just how much history is woven into the communities of the 1st Berkshire District.

Speaking of history, I also spent some time at the Williamstown Historical Museum, where I had a great brainstorm about how we can work together across municipal lines to preserve, protect, and promote the amazing history of this region.

I had to cut today's ride a little short so I could get back to North Adams and work my 4:00 shift at Steeple City Social. But I'm almost there! Tomorrow morning, I'll finish the final stretch of the ride and officially complete my 100-mile adventure through all 13 municipalities of the 1st Berkshire District.

Five days, nearly 100 miles, 12 communities, and countless conversations with the people who make this place so specialThis has been an incredible reminder of why I'm running to represent this district: because our communities are stronger when we know one another, listen to one another, and work together.
