I'm Megan Cotter.
I'm a Democrat representing District 39 because Exeter, Hopkinton, and Richmond deserve representatives who will bring our community's values of decency and hard work to the State House.
Join me for a Community Meeting! Let’s discuss legislative priorities and talk about what’s important to YOU. Stay informed, share your concerns, and have your voice heard in our community.

RSVP to Megan@MeganCotterRI.com to let me know you’ll be there. I look forward to connecting with you!
Exciting News! I’m honored to be named one of The Council of State Government’s **2024 “20 Under 40” leaders**! This national award recognizes young public servants who prioritize bipartisanship, collaboration, and real solutions for their communities.
A huge thank you to Speaker Shekarchi for the nomination and to all of you for trusting me to fight for our community. I’ll be officially accepting the award next month at the CSG National Conference in New Orleans! This achievement belongs to all of us—our community, our partnerships, and our shared commitment to making life better for everyone.
From forest fire prevention to land conservation, property tax relief, and advocating for our kids and schools, this recognition is a reflection of *our work together* in District 39.
