Meet Seth Moulton Meet Seth Moulton Seth Moulton is a Democrat, entrepreneur, and Iraq War veteran who wants to represent a new generation of leaders in Washington. Born and raised in the 6th District of Massachusetts by his parents Tom, a retired real estate lawyer, and Lynn, a secretary at Massachusetts General Hospital, Seth is no stranger to hard work and service. He attended public schools, followed by Phillips Andover and Harvard College, which he could only afford thanks to student loans. Seth spent his summers throughout high school and college repairing boats in Marblehead and working on a shortline railroad in New Hampshire to help pay for school. Seth’s college mentor, the late Reverend Peter Gomes, often said that believing in the right thing, or supporting others who do the right thing, is not good enough; you ought to go do it. Following Reverend Gomes’ advice, Seth committed to serving others and decided to join the Marines shortly after his college graduation in June 2001. Later that same year, our country was under attack and Seth was called to duty. Seth served four tours in Iraq over five years. While he didn’t agree with the war, and had no idea it would occur when he joined, he served with honor as he never wanted someone else to go in his place. He was in the first Marine company to enter Baghdad, worked to establish a free and independent Iraqi media, and was hand-selected to work directly for General David Petraeus as a liaison to senior Iraqi military and political leaders south of Baghdad. After completing his final tour, Seth went back to school where he earned an MPA from the John F. Kennedy School of Government and an MBA from Harvard Business School, in large part due to the support of the GI Bill. Pursuing his interest in rebuilding our country’s crumbling transportation and infrastructure, Seth spent a year in Texas as the managing director of Texas Central Railway, a company building a high-speed rail line between Dallas/Fort Worth and Houston. After supervising preliminary engineering and planning of the 240-mile, 200-mph, railroad, Seth returned home to the 6th District of Massachusetts to start a health care company, Eastern Healthcare Partners, with a classmate from business school. Today, Seth lives in Salem where he serves on the Board of the Salem YMCA. .

    August 10, 2021 The Honorable Nancy Pelosi The Honorable Steny Hoyer Speaker Majority Leader U.S. House of Representatives U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 Washington, D.C. 20515 Dear Speaker Pelosi and Leader Hoyer, As we advance legislation to rebuild and renew America’s infrastructure, we encourage you to continue your commitment to combating the climate crisis by including critical clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives in the upcoming infrastructure package. These incentives will play a critical role in America’s economic recovery, alleviate some of the pollution impacts that have been borne by disadvantaged communities, and help the country build back better and cleaner. The clean energy sector was projected to add 175,000 jobs in 2020 but the COVID-19 pandemic upended the industry and roughly 300,000 clean energy workers were still out of work in the beginning of 2021.1 Clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation tax incentives are an important part of bringing these workers back. It is critical that these policies support strong labor standards and domestic manufacturing. The importance of clean energy tax policy is made even more apparent and urgent with record- high temperatures in the Pacific Northwest, unprecedented drought across the West, and the impacts of tropical storms felt up and down the East Coast. We ask that the infrastructure package prioritize inclusion of a stable, predictable, and long-term tax platform that: Provides long-term extensions and expansions to the Production Tax Credit and Investment Tax Credit to meet President Biden’s goal of a carbon pollution-free power sector by 2035; Extends and modernizes tax incentives for commercial and residential energy efficiency improvements and residential electrification; Extends and modifies incentives for clean transportation options and alternative fuel infrastructure; and Supports domestic clean energy, energy efficiency, and clean transportation manufacturing.

    7/7/2021 Moulton, Ocasio-Cortez, Costa, Markey and Gillibrand Build Coalition of 80 Lawmakers in Support of High-speed Rail | U.S. Congressman Seth Moulton CORONAVIRUS RESOURCES PREVIOUS ARTICLE June 30, 2021 MOULTON, OCASIO-CORTEZ, COSTA, MARKEY AND GILLIBRAND BUILD COALITION OF 80 LAWMAKERS IN SUPPORT OF HIGH- SPEED RAIL WASHINGTON —Today, Representatives Seth Moulton, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Jim Costa and Senators Ed Markey and Kirsten Gillibrand announced 71 Representatives and 4 Senators have joined their eorts to increase funding for high- speed and high-performance rail. The leaders have been circulating a bicameral letter to the committee chairs and leadership of both chambers for the last two weeks. The broad, 80-member coalition wants Congress to include high-speed rail among the transformational investments outlined in the American Jobs Plan, and they want Congress to invest as much in high-speed rail as it does in road and air travel. In the letter, the lawmakers said, “With the new administration, we have a generational opportunity to invest in our nation’s infrastructure, and we are grateful for your leadership in ensuring we invest in next generation infrastructure, not just the infrastructure of the past. As negotiations continue to develop around a comprehensive infrastructure package, we write to express our support for the inclusion of dedicated funding to develop international-standard high-speed rail with high-performance connections that feed into a larger network. A federal commitment to these modern and proven transportation systems will dramatically improve our environment, reduce inequity, and help grow cities and sustain vibrant downtowns across the nation.” The following Senators signed the letter: Sen.
