Seth Moulton is a father, a husband, a Marine, and a Democrat with a mission to bring a new generation of leaders to Congress.He was first challenged to serve our country by the pastor of his college church, Reverend Peter Gomes, who told him that it’s not enough simply to salute the flag—everyone should find a way to serve. As a result, Seth joined the United States Marine Corps in 2001, days after graduating from college and months before the attacks on 9/11. As the leader of an infantry platoon, he was among the first Americans to reach Baghdad in 2003. He served four tours in Iraq, a war he disagreed with and spoke out against—but he was proud to go, so no one had to go in his place.
We can rebuild our economy by rebuilding our country. That starts with connecting every house in America to affordable, high-speed internet. And it means not just repairing our roads, bridges, and water pipes but building next-generation transportation, like high-speed rail, because everyone should have access to good jobs in their region and a chance to make it home after work in time for dinner.
