Julie Morris of Milford has announced that she will run as an independent for the State House in the 36th District. Morris is a licensed clinical social worker and has been actively engaged in local civic issues, including participating in the Milford Homeless Action Committee and advocating for transparency and community involvement in local government decisions.

Additional information from Julie Morris:

Morris was born and raised in Milford in a working family. Her father was a boilermaker and her mother was a nurse at Milford Hospital. Her parents also operated ABC 123 Daycare serving local families, and her grandparents, Brownlow and June Morris, ran Brownie’s Bait and Tackle on Route 36 for many years.
 
Professionally, Morris works as a licensed clinical social worker helping individuals and families navigate complex healthcare systems, including palliative and supportive care case management. Through that work, she says she sees firsthand how decisions made at the state level affect people in real life.
 
“District 36 is growing rapidly, and many residents feel development is happening faster than infrastructure, schools, and services can keep up,” Morris said. “I’m running as an Independent because I believe our district deserves practical leadership focused on responsible growth, strong infrastructure, protecting farmland, and supporting working families.”
 
Morris has also been actively engaged in local civic issues, including participating in the Milford Homeless Action Committee and advocating for transparency and community involvement in local government decisions.
 
“This community shaped me,” Morris said. “Now I’m ready to stand up for it and protect its future.”
