Lori Trahan, a U.S. Congress member representing Massachusetts' 3rd district, has been vocal on various issues through her social media presence. Her recent tweets cover topics ranging from healthcare funding to aviation safety concerns.

On February 16, 2025, Trahan highlighted the importance of Massachusetts in cancer and Alzheimer’s research. She expressed concern over potential funding cuts by Donald Trump, stating: "As a leader in cancer and Alzheimer’s research and treatments, Massachusetts offers hope to people across our country battling these horrible diseases.
