In 2018 and again in 2020, voters from North Andover, Methuen, Lawrence, and Haverhill entrusted me with the responsibility of making sure that our district is a place where all residents can comfortably live, work, and thrive. I am grateful for your support and am honored to serve as your State Representative for the Merrimack Valley's 14th Essex District. In this role, I am not only your voice at the State House working tirelessly to advocate for the issues that are important to all of us, but I also strive to be an available and accessible legislator.

I currently serves as a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, the Joint Committee on Public Safety and Homeland Security, and the Joint Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government, and as the Co-Chair of the MCWL Sexual Violence Task Force.

I also spent years as a sexual assault hotline advocate, and as a member of our local YWCA Board of Directors. Because being an active member of the community is just a part of who I am, I continue to be involved as a Scoutmaster of Scout Troop 87GT and am an assistant coach of the NAMS cross country team. Boy Scouts. Being part of the solution means not being a spectator.

Rep. Minicucci Says Legislators May Help Residents with Stalled Unemployment Claims

Typographical errors and missed callbacks are among the reasons some residents are having trouble receiving unemployment checks.

State Rep. Christina Minicucci, a guest on WHAV’s Friday morning program, reminded listeners she and other lawmakers offer can help.

“A lot of times when people have been hung-up on their unemployment, for some reason, or it’s just not going through, they’ll call our office and we’re able to help move it along more quickly,” she says.

Minicucci says many times, the issues are typographical errors or transposed numbers. Minicucci also advises some claims require additional information and residents should be on the alert for an unexpected telephone call. “They’re working seven days a week, and they’re calling from remote offices, so sometimes that phone call may come in from Idaho or something like that, and people won’t pick up the call. So, we always say pick up every phone call. They work seven days a week so you can do it on the weekend. They will not leave a message for you because you have so many people making the calls, so if you miss it, you miss it. You don’t even know you missed the call.”

State reps adjust to remote working in coronavirus chaos

For State Rep. Christina Minicucci, D-North Andover, who represents the Essex 14th district, the shutdown has been a chance to shine. Minicucci is a project manager by trade and has been working mostly remotely since she was pregnant with her now-17-year-old son.

“This is what I do, solve problems,” Minicucci, who also ran into the state government’s email limit, said.

 
 

“I have three kids. I never have free time to sit around, anyway,” Minicucci said.

The key is to compartmentalize and prioritize, Minicucci said. And she spends time every day putting emails into priority categories for response.
