Seth Moulton is an American politician and former United States Marine Corps officer currently serving as the U.S. Representative for Massachusetts's 6th congressional district since 2015. A member of the Democratic Party, Moulton has focused on issues such as national security, veterans' affairs, and economic opportunity. He gained national attention for his candidacy in the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, advocating for a new generation of leadership within the party.
The president's strike has reversed all of that progress, because now Soleimani is a martyr.
It's not in our strategic interests in the Middle East. It's not in our strategic interests globally to get bogged down in a war with Iran.
The administration's strategy is failing. The administration is worse off. We are worse off. We are less safe than we were under the JCPOA.
This spectrum, this public resource, has remained largely unused. This is unacceptable.
I believe that we can get 9-8-8 up and running more quickly than other three-digit numbers.
I believe the United States must maintain our global leadership role as a force for good, a defender of democracy and human rights and the rules-based international order.
Great power competition from Russia and China, which are rapidly advancing next-generation warfighting capabilities to leapfrog our legacy systems, is real.
As we enter a new decade, it is time for a new generation of thinking about these challenges and how Congress and the country can meet and defeat them.
The United States faces a diverse, fast-changing range of national security threats, nearly unprecedented in their breadth and pace of change.
Right now, with President Trump's permission, Turkey is slaughtering our Kurdish allies, the only people who stand between us and ISIS, men and women who have died by the thousands to protect Americans from terrorism, the families of our…
I think it is worth just pointing out that as you say, it was not big enough. It was the Republican Congress that cut that stimulus short, and I think we could have had a much stronger recovery if we had not done that.
We need to start making infrastructure investment decisions based on facts, on real numbers, and truly understanding the long-term costs and benefits.
The transportation infrastructure investment has historically been a bipartisan priority, and it must be going forward.
Neither would exist without government investment, and it is the lack of government investment that has gotten us to the embarrassing state of America's infrastructure we know well today.
My colleagues across the aisle seem to think that opportunity in America is just as equal as it needs to be.
If we do not start with equal opportunity, we cannot live up to our fundamental values and principles as a nation.
America is founded upon the idea of equal opportunity. It is our nation's guiding principle.
This agreement is a good step forward; not a great step, but a good step. As vice chairman of the Budget Committee, and a veteran who serves on the Armed Services Committee, I want to speak for a moment about its impact on our national…
When is enough enough? The vote to go to war against Iraq in 2002 was a mistake. Congress should have been more careful, questioned the intelligence, and made sure that we exhausted every other option before we put young American lives in…
Colleagues, this vote is about several things. It is about war with Iran. The President and John Bolton have manufactured a crisis by withdrawing America from the Iran nuclear deal with no alternative, and Iran has a strategic advantage…
I want to point out that I agree with my colleague that this treaty is outdated, that Russia and China are developing weapons that exceed what is included here, but that is all the more reason why we need the time afforded by extending…
Shouldn't we just be paying a little bit of this money, a small portion of the $3 million budget of the VA Police Department every year just to the Bedford Police Department?
