For ten years, Vinny deMacedo has represented the First Plymouth District in the Massachusetts House of Representatives. At present, he is the ranking Republican on the powerful Ways and Means Committee. The View wholeheartedly endorses deMacedo for re-election.
First and foremost, Vinny deMacedo is a family man with deep roots in the local Plymouth community. As a small business owner, he experiences firsthand the impact of the laws passed by his colleagues on Beacon Hill. He knows the demands of providing for a family and meeting a payroll. Vinny also understands the workings of state government. He was voted Legislator of the Year by the Massachusetts Town Clerk's Association at its annual meeting in June, 2008.
As one of only nineteen Republicans, out of a total of 160 House members, Vinny provides the crucial leadership for the continuation of a two-party system in Massachusetts. Dominated by the other party, state spending has grown disproportionately as more and more expensive tax-payer supported programs are created, without adequate, or possibly any, concern for the cost side of the ledger, pushing the state budget to unsustainable levels. This extremism is also carried over to non-financial issues where government-initiated social changes have been pushed through without regard for the traditional values being trampled. While lacking the power to act unilaterally, Republicans like Vinny deMacedo are the sole voice of reason. As William F. Buckley, Jr. might have said, they are standing athwart history yelling "stop".
On October 30th, a birthday celebration for Vinny deMacedo will be held at the John Alden Club in Plymouth from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m.. Click HERE for more details. All are invited to come down to show support for Vinny deMacedo. If you are unable to attend, but would like to make a donation, please send a personal check to The deMacedo Committee P.O. Box 882, Plymouth, MA 02362
