David Michael Bartley (born February 9, 1935, in Holyoke, Massachusetts)[1] is a U.S. politician and educator who served as a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives from 1963 to 1975, Speaker of the Massachusetts House of Representatives from 1969 to 1975,[2] Secretary of Administration and Finance from 1981 to 1983, and President of Holyoke Community College from 1975 to 2004.[3] In 1974, along with J. John Fox, he co-sponsored the Bartley-Fox law, which passed that year and took effect on April 1, 1975. The law forces judges to sentence people convicted of carrying a gun without a firearm identification card to at least one year in jail.[4]
He ran for the United States Senate in 1984, finishing third in the Democratic primary behind Lieutenant Governor John Kerry and 5th congressional district representative James Shannon.[5]
