Therese Murray is an American politician from the state of Massachusetts. As of March 21, 2007 she is the President of the Massachusetts Senate, becoming the first woman to lead a legislative body in the state.[1]
Murray represents the districts of Plymouth and Barnstable in the Massachusetts Senate, and, before becoming Senate President, was the chairperson of the Senate Ways and Means Committee.
Mrs. Murray is a strong supporter of states' rights and is actively working on writing a Universal Health Care bill.[citation needed]
