A Republican representing a heavily Democratic-leaning Massachusetts district, Margaret Heckler focused on constituent issues and women’s rights throughout her 16-year career in the House. Co-chairing the first congressional Women’s Caucus with Elizabeth Holtzman, Heckler supported legislation on domestic violence prevention and prohibition of discrimination in acquiring credit.
