Lori Trahan, a member of the U.S. Congress representing Massachusetts’ 3rd district, has expressed concerns over recent policy proposals and administrative actions through her social media platform. Trahan, who succeeded Niki Tsongas in 2019, continues to voice her stance on issues affecting her constituents.
