Young Professionals for Tram
If your rent is going up faster than your salary, that is not your personal failing. It is policy. Tram is running to change it.
Tram for Congress · MA-06 · September 2026 Democratic primary
The track record across MA-06
From three terms in the Massachusetts State House and the congressional campaign so far. Sourced from the campaign's CRM of record.
Why this race
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.
The cost of being a young adult in Massachusetts has lapped the income chart. Housing, childcare, student debt, healthcare. The federal government has the levers. They have not been pulled.
Tram is running to pull them: housing supply incentives at the federal level, real student-debt relief, public-option healthcare, childcare funded as infrastructure. This is a generational platform with a candidate ready to actually run it.

Pillar 01 · Housing
Pass federal incentives that get homes built faster, lower mortgage and rent costs, and make first-home ownership reachable for working families in MA-06.
Pillar 02 · Lowering Costs
Take on consolidation, surprise pricing, and giveaways to corporate insiders. Reward the people doing the work, not the people skimming off the top.
Pillar 03 · Defending Democracy
Stand up against authoritarian power grabs and the steady chipping-away of our rights. Voting rights, reproductive rights, the rule of law, all on the line.
Why early matters
