Colleen M. Garry (born July 21, 1962, in Lowell, Massachusetts[1]) is an American politician who represents the 36th Middlesex District in the Massachusetts House of Representatives.[2]
Garry was born on July 21, 1962, in Lowell Massachusetts. She graduated from the University of Lowell and Suffolk University Law School.
She was an aide to State Representative John Cox, who represented Dracut and part of Lowell. In 1994 she was elected to represent a new district consisting of Dracut, Tyngsborough, and Dunstable. Dunstable has since been transferred to a neighboring district so the current district consists only of Dracut and Tyngsborough. She is a conservative member of the House Democratic Caucus.
In 2015, Representative Garry came under fire for comments criticizing an act of civil disobedience[3] which obstructed a major Massachusetts highway. Representative Garry accused protestors affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement of being "terrorists" and claimed that "structural racism is a fraud."[4]
