Why this race
A representative who reads the technical brief.
Tram arrived in Lawrence with her family in 1992 at age five, the first in her family to attend college (Tufts, Northeastern Law, Harvard Kennedy School), and worked as a civil rights attorney at Greater Boston Legal Services before flipping a four-term Republican State House seat by more than 2,000 votes in 2018.
Massachusetts has the densest concentration of fusion, advanced reactor, and grid-scale storage talent in the world. The next two years of federal energy policy decide whether we lead this build or watch it relocate.
Tram supports ARPA-E and ARPA-H sustained funding, targeted permitting reform that keeps environmental review and shortens the timeline, full IRA implementation, and federal procurement that buys what we want built to scale.
