In late 2011, Creem considered running for Congress in Massachusetts's 4th congressional district to replace retiring Rep. Barney Frank,[5] but decided to remain in the Massachusetts Senate.[6] The seat was ultimately won by Joe Kennedy III.
Creem is a practicing family law attorney, serving Of Counsel at the Boston law firm Sugarman, Rogers, Barshak & Cohen.
Political careeredit
In 2018, Creem, along with Senator Anne Gobi, led the fight to pass H.4671, an act automatically registering eligible voters and enhancing safeguards against fraud. The bill created a framework for eligible voters to automatically register to vote when receiving services form the Register of Motor Vehicles and MassHealth.[7] The bill also applies existing penalties for voter fraud to a fine of up to $10,000 or a five-year prison sentence.
