Rachel Nicole Miselman is a Republican
write-in candidate for the Seventh Congressional District seat, of which East
Boston is a part.
“My grandmother’s parents met and
began a lifetime together in East Boston in the early twentieth century. So, I
am very fond of East Boston and committed to the residents. Despite being
terribly pricier, East Boston remains a place where immigrants come, work, and
sometimes fall in love!”
“As for the job of congresswoman, I
see this office as being the means through which all voices in the district are
heard. Moreover, one of the primary responsibilities is securing federal
dollars for things like infrastructure, health centers (like the East Boston
Community Health Center), and senior programs.”
“Our current congresswoman is not
doing any of this. She is not doing the job. I will do the job.”
Rachel Nicole Miselman is from West
Roxbury and Dorchester. She attended Boston Latin School and Harvard
University. At these two schools, she learned about the importance of civic
engagement and academic excellence. She used this instruction to train as a
barrister at the same institution as Gandhi and Margaret Thatcher and then to
advocate for human rights. It equally enabled her to become a teacher at
private language schools for over twelve years.
This is her first run for public
office. “I am not a member of the political class, “ she says. “I am a citizen
of the district, all of which I love and cherish.”
