More on Stephen Lynch
Description from Wikipedia:
Stephen F. Lynch (born March 31 1955), American politician, has been a Democratic member of the United States House of Representatives since he was elected to replace the late Congressman Joe Moakley, who died in office in 2001. He currently represents the 9th District of Massachusetts, which includes South Boston, parts of Dorchester, as well as several suburban towns.
Lynch was born in South Boston, Massachusetts, and attended Wentworth Institute of Technology. Upon graduation he gained a job as an ironworker for General Motors and then for U.S. Steel. He later returned to college to earn a law degree from the Boston College Law School. Lynch became president of the Massachusetts Ironworkers Union in 2000 and worked for several years as an attorney for laborers. He later earned a master's degree in public administration.
In 1994, Lynch was elected to the Massachusetts House of Representatives. He subsequently entered the Massachusetts Senate after winning a 1995 special election. He won the seat that had previously been held by the President of the Massachusetts Senate, Billy Bulger. He was challenged in the 1995 special primary by Bill Bulger, Jr. and by Patrick Loftus. While in the state senate, Lynch was the chairman of the Committee on Commerce and Labor. He entered Congress in a 2001 special election following the death of Joe Moakley.
