But he knows our economy is not working for everyone and that affordability is a daily concern. John is running for Congress to stand up to Trump as he dismantles our democratic institutions.

Dan Koh

Dan Koh

Dan Koh is running for Congress because Donald Trump is trampling our constitution and we need leaders fighting back to defend our democracy and reduce the cost of living. He is an Andover native who comes from a family of immigrants. From the Biden White House, to Mayor Marty Walsh’s City Hall, to the Andover Select Board — Dan has devoted his career to making government work for the people, not special interests.

On the Select Board, he helped put Andover on a healthy financial path; as Marty Walsh’s Chief of Staff, he oversaw record job growth and affordable housing expansion; and as a senior advisor in Biden’s White House, Dan lowered prescription drug costs, raised the minimum wage, and fought back against Trump-era policies that hurt workers.

He is proudly endorsed by President Biden.

Tram Nguyen

Tram Nguyen

State Representative Tram Nguyen is running for Congress because she believes in a government that works for people, every day people, not just the powerful few. When she was 5 years old, Tram and her family came to the US as political refugees. After becoming the first in her family to graduate from college and law school, she worked as a legal aid attorney to help the most vulnerable among us. In 2018, she challenged an incumbent MAGA Republican and won. As State Representative, she has delivered for working families by lowering costs, expanding opportunity, leading with purpose, and defending democracy. Now, she’s taking that fight to Congress.

Tram knows that we don’t have to choose between making life better for people, and standing up to Trump. We can, and we must, do both.
