Eric Lesser is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on February 27, 1985 in Longmeadow, Massachusetts, United States. Eric Philip Lesser (born February 27th 1984) was an American politician who is a member of the Massachusetts State Senate. Prior to representing his home town from Longmeadow, Massachusetts, and adjacent communities within the Greater-Springfield region, he served as an White House aide during the Obama administration. Lesser is among the founders in The White House Passover Seder.
Lesser has been in contact with HBO regarding the TV show Veep since the year 2012.
Lesser was a chief organizer of an annual White House Passover Seder attended by President Barack Obama, First Lady Michelle Obama, and their daughters – the first presidential Seder in American history. The Seder is a reunion of the original group who met in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania during the 2008 campaign. Lesser brought handmade shmurah matzah from the Chabad-Lubavitch center in Springfield, MA. Over the years the Seder has grown in prominence. President Obama has discussed the Seder with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and Sara Netanyahu gave the President a silver Seder plate to use in subsequent White House Seders. President Obama has spoken of the Seder in a speech before the American Israel Public Affairs Committee and in an address before the Israeli people.
In May 2014, Lesser published an opinion piece in the Springfield Republican detailing a plan to support the increasing population of adults over 65 in Western Massachusetts. Lesser believes that in-home healthcare should be more affordable so that seniors can stay in their homes as long as possible. His plan also includes two points to protect the physical and financial security of the elderly. Lesser wrote that the state should provide increased oversight of in-home healthcare agencies in order to reduce instances of elder abuse, and he supports the increased availability of computer and financial literacy education opportunities to decrease the number of seniors who fall victim to online and phone scams.
Lesser was married to lawyer Alison Silber on December 31 in 2011. They have two daughters: Rose and Nora and the dog they named Cooper.
