Honoring Independence: Happy 4th of July

 


“The United States is the only country with a known birthday. All the rest began, they know not when, and grew into power, they know not how. If there had been no Independence Day, England and America combined would not be so great as each actually is. There is no "Republican," no "Democrat," on the Fourth of July — all are Americans. All feel that their country is greater than party.” ~ James G. Blaine 

Today, we proudly celebrate the birth of our great nation. Americans everywhere will be united in spirit as we commemorate the ideals of liberty and justice our country was founded on. 

My hope is that among our festivities this Independence Day, we all take a moment to reflect on the sacrifices the brave men and women of this nation have made and continue to make in order to ensure a life of freedom for their fellow Americans, and a hope for freedom for the world.

Have a happy and safe 4th of July!

O'Maley Middle School's Science Central Program Earmark

 




πŸ“’TARR ANNOUNCES LOCAL EARMARK FOR O'MALEY MIDDLE SCHOOL'S SCIENCE CENTRAL PROGRAM IN GLOUCESTER πŸ“’

I was proud to secure a $100,000 earmark for the Science Central Program at O'Maley Innovation Middle School in Gloucester as part of the $1.3B FY25 Surtax Supplemental Budget.

O’Maley’s Science Central Program is an outstanding example of what’s possible when innovation, creativity, and a commitment to student success come together.

This teacher-created, hands-on STEM program is not only engaging students—it’s transforming how we think about education. 

I’m honored to support its continued growth and impact in our community—and beyond.

'Fiesta's opening a time to gather with family'

By Ethan Forman | Gloucester Daily Times 

Excerpt below: 

"State Senate Minority Leader Bruce Tarr, R-Gloucester, took the time to give remarks in both English and Italian, as he does every year.

“The fact is we are blessed to have each other; we are blessed to have this community. We are blessed to live in a place for 98 years where we have been able to get together in the town square and give thanks to St. Peter and give thanks to each other,” Tarr said."
