The Local News: Belsito picks up state auditor diana diZoglio’s endorsement

March 13, 2026 | John P. Muldoon

State Auditor Diana DiZoglio has endorsed Jamie Belsito in the MA-6 congressional race. “I believe we need a fierce advocate for this district going to D.C. to fight our battles. We have a lot of challenges we are facing … Our democracy is under attack. We need bold, visionary leaders who don’t forget where they came from,” DiZoglio said of Belsito. “The working people of Massachusetts deserve someone who is going to stand up to special interests.”

DiZoglio, who has fought a running battle with fellow Democrats in an attempt to audit State House finances, said Belsito never tried “to ingratiate herself with the powers that be on Beacon Hill. And, I’m sorry, but if you can’t stand up to the speaker of the house in Boston, how the hell are you going to stand up to Donald Trump in D.C.?" ...The Belsito campaign said more than 200 people attended the kick-off event on Saturday.

The Local News: Belsito Says Iran Attacks are “not in my name”

March 2, 2026 | John P. Muldoon

Calling the Israeli and American attacks on Iran “an illegal war,” Congressional candidate Jamie Belsito warned the U.S. could be entering into another open-ended war in the Middle East... Belsito asked what military action does to “expand healthcare access, or address our crumbling infrastructure and homelessness crisis?”

“We must put an end to the diversion of billions more of our national budget to the overinflated Department of War. It’s needed for the programs Americans rely on to survive, programs that have already been gutted by this administration,” she said.

Belsito said she refuses to take money from weapons contractors “because we need leaders who are not bought and owned, and who can check the reckless decisions and crimes of this President without pause.”
