Meet Lora
A longtime Franklin County resident, Wondolowski brings more than two decades of experience working for and directing nonprofit organizations focused on civic engagement, environmental protection, and leadership development.
As President of the Greenfield City Council, she has worked collaboratively to strengthen public schools, expand housing options, revitalize downtown, make forward-looking investments that save taxpayer dollars, and protect LGBTQ rights.
Key Issues
Housing Affordability
& Availability
While the county was once an affordable place to buy a home, many families are now priced out. Rural towns lack starter homes, and housing programs often rely on unit thresholds and water and sewer infrastructure models that do not work outside Greater Boston.
Education Funding that works for rural districts
Declining enrollment, aging school buildings, and heavy reliance on residential property taxes force communities into impossible choices between cutting programs and laying off educators.
Rural Equity in state policy & investment
Funding formulas for transportation, education, and local aid consistently disadvantage rural communities, even as they face aging populations and economic transition.
Environmental protection & climate resilience
Franklin County’s rivers, forests, and farms are central to the region’s economy and identity. Climate change is already increasing flooding, stressing utility systems, and making farming more unpredictable.
Wondolowski supports climate solutions that strengthen resilience, lower long-term costs, create local jobs, and are developed at the right scale and in the right places. She also supports improved transportation options, including Northern Tier rail and microtransit, to increase economic mobility and reduce emissions.
