Richard Edmund Neal was born in 1949, in [[Worcester, Massachusetts]], the oldest of three children of Mary H. (Garvey) and Edmund John Neal. He and his two younger sisters were raised in Springfield by their mother, a housewife, and their father, a custodian at [[Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company|MassMutual]]. Neal's maternal grandparents were from [[Northern Ireland]] and his paternal grandparents were from [[Ireland]] and [[Cornwall]], [[England]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~battle/genealogy/reps/neal.htm |title=neal |website=freepages.rootsweb.com |access-date=November 24, 2018 }}{{dead link|date=June 2022|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> Neal's mother died of a heart attack when he was 13, and he was attending Springfield Technical High School when his father, an alcoholic, died.

In [[1983 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1983]], Neal made plans to challenge Theodore Dimauro, the Democratic incumbent mayor of Springfield.

Neal was reelected in [[1985 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1985]] and [[1987 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1987]].<ref name="cq-1988" /> As mayor, Neal oversaw a period of significant economic growth, with over $400 million of development and investment in the city, and a surplus in the city budget. He worked to strengthen Springfield's appearance, pushing to revive and preserve the city's historic homes and initiating a Clean City Campaign to reduce litter.<ref name="union-1989" /><ref name="hall-1988">Hall, Michelle (December 27, 1988).

In a ''[[The Republican (Springfield, Massachusetts)|Springfield Union-News]]'' poll taken in mid-October 1994, Neal was ahead of John Briare by only 6 percentage points. Neal went on to spend nearly $500,000 in the last two weeks of the campaign to defeat Briare. The 1994 general election also featured a third-party candidate, Kate Ross, who received 6% of the vote.

For his first 12 terms in Congress, Neal represented a district centered on Springfield and stretching as far east as the southern and western suburbs of [[Worcester, Massachusetts|Worcester]]. When Massachusetts lost a congressional district after the 2010 census, the bulk of Neal's territory, including his home in Springfield, was merged with the 1st district, held by fellow Democrat [[John Olver]]. While it retained Olver's district number, it was geographically and demographically more Neal's district; it now covered almost all of the Springfield metropolitan area. The prospect of an incumbent vs. incumbent contest was averted when [[John Olver|Olver]] retired. The new 1st was no less Democratic than the old 2nd, and Neal was reelected without much difficulty in 2012, 2014 and 2016.

===== Health care =====
A longtime advocate of [[health care reform in the United States|health care reform]], Neal was involved in the major health care reform efforts of 1993–94 and 2009–10. In working on the unsuccessful [[Clinton health care plan of 1993]] he served the interests of the major health insurance and medical companies in his district, achieving a compromise allowing insurance companies to charge small businesses higher premiums.<ref name="cq-1996" /> He was later involved writing the House's 2009 health care reform bill, the [[Affordable Health Care for America Act]]. As chairman of the Select Revenue Measures subcommittee, he had a hand in developing the bill's financing plan.

==Early life, education, and academic career==
Richard Edmund Neal was born in 1949, in [[Worcester, Massachusetts]], the oldest of three children of Mary H. (Garvey) and Edmund John Neal. He and his two younger sisters were raised in Springfield by their mother, a housewife, and their father, a custodian at [[Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company|MassMutual]]. Neal's maternal grandparents were from [[Northern Ireland]] and his paternal grandparents were from [[Ireland]] and [[Cornwall]], [[England]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~battle/genealogy/reps/neal.htm |title=neal |website=freepages.rootsweb.com |access-date=November 24, 2018 }}{{dead link|date=June 2022|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}}</ref> Neal's mother died of a heart attack when he was 13, and he was attending Springfield Technical High School when his father, an alcoholic, died.

In [[1983 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1983]], Neal made plans to challenge Theodore Dimauro, the Democratic incumbent mayor of Springfield.

Neal was reelected in [[1985 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1985]] and [[1987 Springfield, Massachusetts mayoral election|1987]].<ref name="cq-1988" /> As mayor, Neal oversaw a period of significant economic growth, with over $400 million of development and investment in the city, and a surplus in the city budget. He worked to strengthen Springfield's appearance, pushing to revive and preserve the city's historic homes and initiating a Clean City Campaign to reduce litter.<ref name="union-1989" /><ref name="hall-1988">Hall, Michelle (December 27, 1988).

Neal ran for the [[United States House of Representatives]] in {{ushr|MA|2}} in 1988 after 18-term Democratic incumbent [[Edward Boland]] retired. Boland had alerted Neal of his impending retirement, giving him a head start on his campaign.

In a ''[[The Republican (Springfield, Massachusetts)|Springfield Union-News]]'' poll taken in mid-October 1994, Neal was ahead of John Briare by only 6 percentage points. Neal went on to spend nearly $500,000 in the last two weeks of the campaign to defeat Briare. The 1994 general election also featured a third-party candidate, Kate Ross, who received 6% of the vote.

For his first 12 terms in Congress, Neal represented a district centered on Springfield and stretching as far east as the southern and western suburbs of [[Worcester, Massachusetts|Worcester]]. When Massachusetts lost a congressional district after the 2010 census, the bulk of Neal's territory, including his home in Springfield, was merged with the 1st district, held by fellow Democrat [[John Olver]]. While it retained Olver's district number, it was geographically and demographically more Neal's district; it now covered almost all of the Springfield metropolitan area. The prospect of an incumbent vs. incumbent contest was averted when [[John Olver|Olver]] retired. The new 1st was no less Democratic than the old 2nd, and Neal was reelected without much difficulty in 2012, 2014 and 2016.

===== Health care =====
A longtime advocate of [[health care reform in the United States|health care reform]], Neal was involved in the major health care reform efforts of 1993–94 and 2009–10.

As chairman of the Select Revenue Measures subcommittee, he had a hand in developing the bill's financing plan.

Boland had alerted Neal of his impending retirement, giving him a head start on his campaign.

</p><p>Neal has won reelection every two years since. Former Springfield mayor Theodore Dimauro, reflecting sentiments that Neal had an unfair advantage in the previous election, ran as a challenger in the 1990 Democratic primary.

Ravosa Jr., and Independent Thomas R. Sheehan. Neal won with 53 percent of the vote.<sup id="cite_ref-19" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-19">[19]</a></sup>
</p><p>In a <i><a href="/enwiki/wiki/The_Republican_(Springfield,_Massachusetts)" title="The Republican (Springfield, Massachusetts)">Springfield Union-News</a></i> poll taken in mid-October 1994, Neal was ahead of John Briare by only 6 percentage points. Neal went on to spend nearly $500,000 in the last two weeks of the campaign to defeat Briare. The 1994 general election also featured a third-party candidate, Kate Ross, who received 6% of the vote.

</p><p>For his first 12 terms in Congress, Neal represented a district centered on Springfield and stretching as far east as the southern and western suburbs of <a href="/enwiki/wiki/Worcester,_Massachusetts" title="Worcester, Massachusetts">Worcester</a>. When Massachusetts lost a congressional district after the 2010 census, the bulk of Neal's territory, including his home in Springfield, was merged with the 1st district, held by fellow Democrat <a href="/enwiki/wiki/John_Olver" title="John Olver">John Olver</a>. While it retained Olver's district number, it was geographically and demographically more Neal's district; it now covered almost all of the Springfield metropolitan area. The prospect of an incumbent vs. incumbent contest was averted when <a href="/enwiki/wiki/John_Olver" title="John Olver">Olver</a> retired.
