Lori Trahan is one of the most popular and richest Politician who was born on October 27, 1973 in Lowell, Massachusetts, United States. After narrowly defeating Daniel Koh (the former Chief of Staff of Mayor of Boston Marty Walsh), Trahan won September 2018’s Democratic primary election. After a recount, the victory was confirmed. Trahan won 62% of the vote over Rick Green, her Republican challenger in the November general election.
In April 2019, Trahan said she supports the candidacy of the senior Senator from Massachusetts, Elizabeth Warren for president in 2020.
On December 17, 2019, the United States House Committee on Ethics launched a continuing investigation of Trahan after congressional investigators found “substantial reason to believe” that she violated campaign finance laws in her election win in 2018.
Trahan declared her candidacy in October 2017 for the November 2018 House election to succeed Niki Tsongas, the retiring Representative. Tsongas succeeded Trahan’s former boss Meehan in a 2007 special electoral (the district was renumbered to the 5th District following the 2010 census).
After graduating from college, Trahan was employed by Marty Meehan (a member of the United States House of Representatives in Massachusetts’ 5th congressional district), and eventually became his chief of staff. Trahan, who was a Cambridge-based marketing software firm, left the public sector in 2005 to join ChoiceStream. She was appointed CEO of Concire Leadership Institute. This is a small consulting firm that is owned by women.
In an Interview with WBZ-TV in April 2019, Trahan told the political commentator, Jon Keller, that she does not support the impeachment of President Trump, but said Congress should continue investigating the president. In December 2019, however, after the revelation that president Trump had spoken to the Ukrainian president about investigating his rival Joe Biden, Trahan told The Salem News that she supported the impeachment of the president saying Trump’s “abuses in office a “clear and present danger” that requires action. On December 19, 2019, Trahan voted to impeach on both articles of impeachment against Trump.
