The Orenstein Committee


  • About Us

    We’re a grassroots political campaign working to elect Ben Orenstein to the Somerville City Council At-Large. Our mission is to make Somerville more affordable, welcoming, and vibrant—by addressing the housing crisis, expanding green space, and fostering civic engagement.

    Ben is a longtime resident, a former tech CEO, and the founder of The Somerville Beacon, a local publication covering city government. He’s running to bring bold, thoughtful leadership to City Hall and to help build a city that works for everyone—not just those who got here first.

    This campaign is powered by volunteers, neighbors, and community members who believe in a more abundant future for Somerville.
