U.S. House Democratic Whip Katherine Clark Endorses State Senator Will Brownsberger for Reelection

BELMONT, Mass., August 3, 2026 – U.S. Representative Katherine Clark, House Democratic Minority Whip, announced today that she is endorsing State Senator Will Brownsberger in his campaign for reelection to the Massachusetts Senate.

Will is one of the most effective legislators I have had the privilege to work alongside,” Clark said. “He shows up, does the work, and never stops fighting for our neighbors. It has been a pleasure collaborating with him over the years, and I am proud to support his reelection.”

Brownsberger and Clark have worked closely together for years on issues affecting their overlapping constituencies, including advocating through the Congressional Quiet Skies Caucus on Logan Airport noise mitigation and securing federal funding for water infrastructure improvements in Watertown.

Brownsberger has represented the Suffolk and Middlesex District since 2012 and currently serves as president pro tempore of the Senate. Over more than a decade in office, he has built a record centered on results rather than headlines, helping lead major criminal justice and policing reforms, chairing the Senate’s redistricting process, and negotiating landmark housing legislation. He has also been a steady advocate for public transportation and road safety across his district, working for years to secure funding for Red and Green Line improvements, bus lane expansions, and safer intersections along the Charles River corridor.

Clark has represented Massachusetts’ Fifth Congressional District since 2013 and serves as the second-ranking Democrat in the U.S. House. Before her election to Congress, she served in the Massachusetts Senate and the Massachusetts House of Representatives.

Brownsberger said Clark has long been one of his closest allies in public service. “Katherine Clark is one of the most effective leaders in Washington,” said Brownsberger. “She is very disciplined and very focused on winning control of the House from its current Trump-dominated leadership. I am grateful for her support as this campaign moves forward.”
