PLYMOUTH – Local veteran Jesse Brown has announced that he is launching a campaign for the 9th Congressional District currently held by Democrat Bill Keating.
Brown, a U.S. Marine Corps veteran, called Keating a “career politician” in his campaign announcement video, and added that he’s looking to be a fresh face in Washington to represent the district, which includes all of Cape Cod & the Islands, and sections of Plymouth and Bristol counties.
Brown previously ran for the Republican Party nomination in the 2020 special primary for the then-vacant Plymouth/Barnstable State Senate seat. Jay McMahon won that race, before eventually being defeated by Democrat Susan Moran.

A native of Plymouth, Brown served as a sergeant in the Marines before starting Heidrea Communications, a contracting firm that works with things such as wireless communication infrastructure.
