McGovern Names Former Obama Appointee Niedzielski District Director
Thursday, May 30, 2019
Niedzielski was appointed by President Barack Obama in 2013 to serve as MA State Executive Director of the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Farm Service Agency.
“I’m thrilled and honored to take on this new role. I look forward to continuing the Congressman’s track record of success by providing the highest quality service to our constituents and advocating on behalf of Massachusetts’ Second Congressional District,” said Niedzielski.
Prior to being appointed by Obama, Niedzielski served as Deputy Chief of Staff and District Director to former Congressman John Olver.
“Jon has deep ties to our community – and a proven track record of delivering results for the people of Massachusetts. He knows what it takes to provide outstanding, high-quality services to those we represent. I know Jon will help lead Team McGovern with integrity and talent, and he will ensure our office continues to be accessible and helpful to everyone,” said McGovern.
Niedzielski received his Bachelor’s Degree in History from Ithaca College, and a Master’s Degree in Foreign Affairs from the University of Virginia, Charlottesville.
Kelly Brissette Named Deputy District Director
McGovern also announced that Kelly Brissette has been promoted to Deputy District Director.
“When it comes to Worcester, Kelly Brissette is an encyclopedia. She grew up here and lives here, but more importantly, she has taken the time to listen and learn about the issues our communities face and how we can solve them by working together. I’m really excited to have her take on this new role, and I know that she will accomplish great things as Deputy District Director,” said McGovern.
Brissette has worked with McGovern since 2009, most recently as District Scheduler.
She received her Bachelor’s Degree in Political Science from Boston College, and resides in Worcester with her husband John and their two children.
