Alessio is organizing area volunteers for door knocking, sign standouts, parade participation, and getting out lawn signs. He will help deliver the message to voters that Geoff is the real Diehl for Massachusetts and that he will put people ahead of politics.

“Geoff has already delivered more for the Commonwealth as a State Representative than Elizabeth Warren has done as a United States Senator," said Alessio in a statement. "I admire the courage he displayed taking on the special interest groups to successfully repeal automatic gas tax hikes. His efforts saved taxpayers $2 billion."
