The Crimson February, 2025
For the past 12 years, State Rep. Marjorie C. Decker’s campaign has reaped the rewards of extensive fundraising — nearly half of which came from registered lobbyists in 2023, the most recent year for which fully reviewed data was available. And over nine of her 12 years in office, Decker — who represents the 25th Middlesex district, including much of Cambridge and the heart of Harvard’s campus — has spent more than $11,000 of her campaign’s money at University of Massachusetts Club.
The private, members-only social club sits on the top floor of one of Boston’s tallest skyscrapers just a few blocks away from Beacon Hill — and is frequented by the state’s most powerful. The social club is only one of the many places where Decker spends her campaign’s money. According to decades worth of public filings reviewed by The Crimson, Decker is a prolific fundraiser — she’s raised over $750,000 since 2013 — and has spent even more.
