Seth Wilbur Moulton (born October 24, 1978) is an American politician who has been the U.S. representative for Massachusetts's 6th congressional district since 2015. [2] A former Marine Corps officer, he is a member of the Democratic Party.

Contents

After graduating from Harvard University in 2001 with a Bachelor of Science in physics, Moulton joined the United States Marine Corps. He served four tours in Iraq and then earned his master's degrees in business and public policy in a dual program at Harvard. He entered politics in 2014, when he was elected to represent Massachusetts's 6th congressional district.

In early 2019, Moulton was seen as a potential presidential candidate for the Democratic nomination in 2020. [3] [4] Publicly expressing his interest in the prospect, he traveled to early primary states. [5] After announcing his candidacy on April 22, 2019, Moulton withdrew from the race on August 23. [6] [7]

Early life, education, and commission

Moulton was born on October 24, 1978, in Salem, Massachusetts, to Lynn Alice (née Meader), a secretary, and Wilbur Thomas Moulton, Jr., a real estate attorney. [8] [9] [10] He has two younger siblings, Eliza and Cyrus, and grew up in Marblehead, Massachusetts. [8] He graduated from Phillips Academy in 1997, [11] and attended Harvard College, where he earned a bachelor's degree in physics in 2001. He gave the Undergraduate English Oration at his commencement, focusing on the importance of service. [12]

Moulton joined the Marine Corps after graduation, a few months before the September 11 attacks. [13] He attended the Officer Candidate School in Quantico, Virginia, and graduated in 2002 with the rank of second lieutenant. [8] [12]

Military career

During the 2003 invasion of Iraq, Moulton led one of the first infantry platoons to enter Baghdad. He served a total of four tours of duty in Iraq from 2003 to 2008. [8] [14] Moulton took part in the 2003 Battle of Nasiriyah, leading a platoon that cleared a hostile stronghold. In that action, he went to the aid of a Marine wounded by friendly fire, and for his actions was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal for valor. [15] [14] Moulton was active in combat against insurgent forces in Iraq, including the 2004 Battle of Najaf against the militia of Muqtada al-Sadr. [16] Over two days, he "fearlessly exposed himself to enemy fire" as his platoon was pinned down under heavy fire and then directed the supporting fire that repelled the attack. He received the Bronze Star Medal for his actions in this battle. [15]

In 2008, during Moulton's fourth tour of duty in Iraq, General David Petraeus requested that he be assigned to work as a special liaison with tribal leaders in Southern Iraq. After that tour, Moulton was discharged from the Marine Corps with the rank of captain. [8] [17] [18] [14]

Media contributions

In 2003, Moulton co-hosted a television program with his Iraqi interpreter, Mohammed Harba, called Moulton and Mohammed, in which they discussed regional conditions in the period following the U.S. invasion before an audience of U.S. servicemen and Iraqi citizens. [19] The show ended after three months when Moulton's unit left the area. [8]

Between 2003 and 2008, Moulton was frequently interviewed about his experiences as an officer in Iraq by U.S. national media, including CNN, MSNBC, and NPR programs Morning Edition and All Things Considered . [8] [20]

Moulton was also prominently featured in the 2007 Academy Award-nominated documentary No End in Sight . In the film, he criticizes the U.S. government's handling of the occupation of Iraq. Director Charles H. Ferguson chose to include Moulton and two other Iraq veterans. [21]

Private sector career

After he left the Marines Corps in 2008, Moulton attended a dual-degree program at the Harvard Business School and the Harvard Kennedy School, earning master's degrees in business and public policy in 2011. [22] [14] After graduate school, he worked for one year as managing director of the Texas Central Railway, a transportation firm. In 2011, Moulton and a graduate school classmate founded Eastern Healthcare Partners, which Moulton has invoked to show he was a "successful entrepreneur" who understands "what it's like to face that day when you might not meet payroll". The company raised investor funds and drafted a partnership agreement with Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, but in October 2014 the Boston Globe reported that by the time Moulton ran for Congress, EHP had no revenue, was still incubating, and had closed its only Massachusetts office. [23] [14]

U.S. House of Representatives

Elections

2012 speculation

Moulton considered running against Democratic representative John F. Tierney of Massachusetts's 6th congressional district as an Independent in 2012, but decided against it in July 2012, saying, "the time and the logistics of putting together all the campaign infrastructure, organizing the volunteers ... the fundraising—it's just too much to accomplish in three months." He told Roll Call that his own polling "showed there was in fact a clear path to victory" and said he might run for office in the future. [24]

2014 election

On July 8, 2013, Moulton announced his candidacy in the 2014 congressional race for Massachusetts's 6th district. [25] The race had been recognized for its competitiveness by national and regional media throughout the election cycle. [26] [27] [28] [29] [30] Moulton challenged Tierney in the Democratic primary.

Tierney's campaign claimed in campaign advertisements that Moulton received campaign contributions from a New Hampshire political action committee that previously donated only to Republicans, implying that Moulton must hold conservative views. [31] Moulton denied being more conservative than Tierney, [32] and said that the Republican PAC donation was returned. Public Federal Election Commission filings confirmed that the donation was returned in February 2014. [31]

Moulton said that he opposed the Iraq War in which he served. A Tierney campaign staff member said that Moulton had "changed his mind" on the war, and highlighted Tierney's vote in Congress to oppose the 2002 resolution authorizing the U.S. Invasion of Iraq from the start. [32] Moulton also received Retired General Stanley McChrystal's first-ever political endorsement during the campaign. [33]

Moulton won the primary with 50.8% of the vote to Tierney's 40.1%. [34]

For the general election, Moulton was endorsed by Senator Elizabeth Warren. [35] In October 2014, he received criticism from his Republican opponent when he withdrew from a debate sponsored by radio station WGBH to instead attend a series of New York fundraisers hosted by Democratic National Committee chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz. [36]

The campaigns of Moulton and his Republican opponent, Richard Tisei, were held up as an example of a race where voters could respect both candidates and choose the better one, instead of having to choose the less undesirable one. [37]

Moulton won the general election with 55.0% of the vote to Tisei's 41.1%. [38]

2016 election

Moulton was unopposed for reelection in 2016. [39]

2018 election

Moulton ran against Republican nominee Joseph Schneider in 2018. He won with 65.2% of the vote. [40] In 2018 Moulton created the Serve America PAC, which helped elect Democratic candidates with national service experience. [41]

2020 election

Moulton faced his first primary challenge since taking office. He defeated Democratic challengers Angus McQuilken and Jamie Belsito with 78% of the vote, and defeated Republican nominee John Paul Moran with 65.4% of the vote. [40]

2022 election

Moulton faced Republican nominee Bob May in 2022. He won with 62.9% of the vote. [42] Moulton refused to debate May, calling him an "election denier," citing the Republican candidate's refusal to recognize that President Joe Biden had won the 2020 presidential election. [43]

2024 election

Moulton ran for re-election in 2024. [44] He was unopposed and won re-election. [45]

Tenure

Moulton was sworn into the 114th United States Congress on January 3, 2015. [46]

Following the 2018 elections, Democrats won the majority in the House of Representatives. Moulton and some others who felt current leadership was "too old" gathered signatures to replace Nancy Pelosi as the Democrats' leader. Representative Karen Bass was their first choice for leader. [47] [48] Bass rejected the offer, as did others, choosing instead to support Pelosi. [47] On November 28, 2018, Pelosi won the speakership on a 203-to-32 vote, with Moulton voting for her. [48]

On August 24, 2021, Moulton, together with Republican representative Peter Meijer, flew unannounced into Hamid Karzai International Airport amid the evacuation of Americans and allies after the fall of Kabul. [49] [50] The two explained that their visit was kept secret to minimize disruption, and that its goal was "to provide guidance" to the Biden administration. [51] Several government officials said that the surprise visit produced unhelpful distraction from the ongoing work of evacuating people. [52] The next day, Pelosi sent a letter to all House members saying that "the Departments of Defense and State have requested that Members not travel to Afghanistan and the region during this time of danger" because such travel "would unnecessarily divert needed resources" from the evacuation efforts. [49] Moulton defended his Kabul trip, saying, "At the end of the day, I don’t care what pundits in Washington are saying...They’ve been wrong about this war for 20 years." [53]

Committee assignments

Caucus memberships

Serve America PAC

In 2017, Moulton founded Serve America, a political action committee that aims to help elect candidates with national service experience, focusing primarily, but not exclusively, on military service. [59] The organization offers a network for candidates to build a community and receive advice from each other and Moulton. [60] This was beneficial for candidates like Abigail Spanberger who said, "[Moulton has] created a network of people who are able to lean on each other, share experiences, and discuss what the campaigns are like." [61]

In 2018, Serve America played a significant role in flipping the U.S. House of Representatives majority from Republican to Democrat. [62] In the 2018 election cycle, the PAC raised over $7.5 million for the candidates it endorsed. It raised the third largest amount of money among Democrats (after House majority leader Steny Hoyer and Senator Kamala Harris), according to campaign-finance non-profit Issue One. [63] During the midterm cycle, Serve America publicly supported 34 congressional Democratic candidates, out of which 18 were elected. Out of those 18, 15 had flipped from Republican to Democratic, representing more than half of the 28 seats Democrats gained. [62]

First-time candidates endorsed by Serve America who won their elections in the 2020 cycle included Mark Kelly from Arizona and Jake Auchincloss from Massachusetts’ 4th District. They also re-endorsed 21 successful incumbent candidates.

In the 2022 cycle, Serve America endorsed six first-time candidates who won their election.

2020 presidential campaign

Moulton's 2020 presidential campaign logo

Early in 2019, Moulton began to recruit staff for a potential campaign for the 2020 Democratic presidential nomination. [64] He traveled to early primary states such as Iowa and New Hampshire in March 2019. [5] [65] [66] [67]

Moulton officially announced his candidacy on April 22, 2019. [68] On August 23, he suspended his campaign and withdrew from the race. [69] [7] During his campaign, Moulton never polled above 2% in any Democratic presidential opinion poll, and was therefore not invited to the first two Democratic presidential debates, having failed to meet the criteria for invitation. [70]

After he withdrew, Moulton's candidacy generated interest after President Donald Trump sarcastically tweeted, in response to stock market fluctuations, "The Dow is down 573 points on the news that Representative Seth Moulton, whoever that may be, has dropped out of the 2020 Presidential Race!" [71]

Political positions

According to Politico , Moulton has called himself "a progressive Democrat", "a pragmatic Democrat", and "a frustrated Democrat". [4]

Moulton is a member of the New Democrat Coalition, a congressional caucus of Democrats who call themselves "moderate", "pro-growth", and "fiscally responsible", [72] and whom others call "centrist." [73] [74] Moulton was ranked the 34th most bipartisan member of the U.S. House of Representatives during the 114th United States Congress by the Lugar Center and the McCourt School of Public Policy's Bipartisan Index, which ranks members of by their degree of bipartisanship (by measuring how often each member's bills attract co-sponsors from the opposite party and how often each member co-sponsors bills by members of the opposite party). [75] [76]

Cannabis

Moulton has admitted to using cannabis and supports its legalization, saying, "If you're not buying your marijuana from a dealer who sells heroin, who sells opioids, it's much less likely to be a gateway drug. The problem is now that it operates in the shadows. There's no control whatsoever. Someone goes and buys an edible, for example, there's no regulation about what's in that. It's like moonshine under Prohibition." [77]

Economics

According to The Boston Globe, "one of Moulton’s biggest focuses is addressing the long-term impact of automation on the economy, which he says will disproportionately affect working-class communities." [73] [78]

Moulton, who in 2015 co-sponsored legislation increasing the federal minimum wage to $12 an hour, said in February 2019 that he supported an increase to $15 an hour. [79]

In 2019, Moulton criticized Trump's withdrawal from the Trans-Pacific Partnership and said that, if elected president, he would reengage in negotiations for "a strong, fair trade deal for the Pacific on our terms, not China's". [80] He also criticized Trump's use of tariffs, telling The Hill that although tariffs remain an option for trade policy the emphasis should be "a comprehensive strategy" and building "our alliances in the Pacific". [81]

Foreign policy

Moulton opposed sending U.S. troops back to Iraq in 2014. [82] He also supported strengthening NATO against Russia and keeping troops in Afghanistan temporarily to execute a counterterrorist mission in 2019. [83]

Moulton criticized President Joe Biden for the withdrawal of U.S. troops from Afghanistan, citing the chaotic evacuation of Afghans who had supported the U.S. in the effort to fight terrorism. [84] He and Representative Don Bacon later co-sponsored the WELCOMED Act, to provide benefits and eligibility for resettlement to Afghan recipients of Special Immigrant Visas, which Biden signed into law on October 1, 2021. [85]

Social issues

Moulton supports abortion rights and same-sex marriage. [86] [87] He supports legal immigration and advocates for immigration reform, but opposes illegal immigration and has called it "something we have to confront". [88] In 2022 and 2023, Moulton cosponsored the Transgender Bill of Rights and voted in favor of the Equality Act. [89]

Transgender issues

Following Kamala Harris's loss to Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election, Moulton expressed opposition to transgender participation in girls' sports. [90] Moulton commented: "'Democrats spend way too much time trying not to offend anyone rather than being brutally honest about the challenges many Americans face. I have two little girls, I don't want them getting run over on a playing field by a male or formerly male athlete, but as a Democrat I'm supposed to be afraid to say that'". [91] Following his remarks, his campaign manager resigned in protest, his comments were condemned by Salem mayor Dominick Pangallo and he faced protest from constituents. [92] Moulton released a November 8 statement that included the following:

I stand firmly in my belief for the need for competitive women’s sports to put limits on the participation of those with the unfair physical advantages that come with being born male. I am also a strong supporter of the civil rights of all Americans, including transgender rights. I will fight, as I always have, for the rights and safety of all citizens. These two ideas are not mutually exclusive, and we can even disagree on them. Yet there are many who, shouting from the extreme left corners of social media, believe I have failed the unspoken Democratic Party purity test. We did not lose the 2024 election because of any trans person or issue. We lost, in part, because we shame and belittle too many opinions held by too many voters and that needs to stop. [93] [91] [94]

In a November 10, 2024 MSNBC interview, Moulton said that the backlash he had received for his comments about transgenderism in sports "'proves my point that we can't even have these discussions as a party... instead, we have a wing of our party... that tries to cancel people who try to even bring up these difficult topics...'". [91] Additionally, Moulton said in an interview that it was "kind of weird" to include pronouns after signatures in emails. [95] He later asserted that Trump's policies would be "extremely harmful" to transgender children and that transgender children "deserve our support", but still described Democrats as "out of touch" on transgender issues. [96] On November 13, 2024, the Salem Democratic City Committee vowed to find someone to run against Moulton in the Democratic primaries for the 2026 midterm elections due to his comments. [97] On November 17, 2024, hundreds of people in Salem gathered at his office in the town at a rally held in protest at his remarks, co-organized by city councillor Kyle Davis. [98]

On November 25, 2024, Moulton said in an interview with the Rolling Stone that the media, in particular The New York Times, had misrepresented his position on transgender issues following the election. Moulton clarified that he still supports transgender rights, but simply wanted Democrats to be more open to talking about the issue, saying "Republicans are trying to take away civil rights from trans people, and they're getting away with it because Democrats refuse to even engage in the debate." He also claimed that Democrats need to improve their messaging on transgender rights, but that Democrats should still defend such rights. Moulton additionally clarified that he was not proposing that Democrats should ban transgender women from women's sports, but instead just "wanted [Democrats] to have a message to fight back against attacks". He also described Nancy Mace's attacks on transgender rights following the election as "abhorrent". [99]

Mental health

Moulton wrote the legislation to create the National 988 Suicide and Mental Health Crisis Hotline. [100] He also introduced the Brandon Act, a law intended to improve mental health access for active duty armed service members. [101]

Cybersecurity

In September 2018, Moulton, Elise Stefanik, and Dan Donovan co-sponsored the "Cyber Ready Workforce Act" advanced by Jacky Rosen. The legislation would create a grant program within the Department of Labor to "create, implement and expand registered apprenticeships" in cybersecurity. It aims to offer certifications and connect participants with businesses to "boost the number" of workers for federal cybersecurity jobs. [102]

Voting age

In January 2023, Moulton was one of 13 cosponsors of an amendment to the Constitution of the United States extending the right to vote to citizens 16 years of age or older. [103]

Energy policy

Moulton supports the expansion of renewable energy and the diversification of the energy grid. He is supportive of carbon pricing and banning fossil fuel extraction on federal lands. [104] Moulton recently voted in favor of the Inflation Reduction Act which included historic funding into renewable energy innovation and implementation. [105] Moulton is also a supporter of nuclear energy. [106] In a 2019 interview, he called nuclear energy "a safe, good investment...for the future of our country." [107] He has also expressed support for the expansion of research and development for fusion power. [108]

Environmental policy

In December 13, 2018, Moulton signed on to supporting the Green New Deal, citing the dangers climate change, which he considers a national security threat, and citing the economic and environmental benefits that would come as a result of the deal. [109] Moulton also voted in favor of the landmark conservation bill, the John D. Dingell Jr. Conservation, Management, and Recreation Act, in 2019. [110]

Views on President Trump

In a March 2016 interview, Moulton compared the rise of Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump to Adolf Hitler's rise to power in the 1930s. Moulton said that, to understand how an educated society "can elect a demagogue", voters should read about how the German people elected Hitler in the early 20th century. [111]

Moulton walked out of Trump's 2020 State of the Union address, citing the part of the address about the administration's contributions to the military and service members. Moulton said: "Trump—a draft dodger who has mocked Senator John McCain, Gold Star families, and soldiers with traumatic brain injury—started talking about the good he has done for our military." [112]

Gun policy

On June 15, 2016, Moulton appeared on the cover of the New York Daily News with the headline "No Civilian Should Own This Gun", in reference to semi-automatic assault weapons. The cover shows Moulton during a deployment to Iraq, carrying an issued M4 carbine. [113] [114]

Moulton penned an opinion piece promoting gun control, including the statement: "There's simply no reason for a civilian to own a military-style assault weapon. It's no different than why we outlaw civilian ownership of rockets and landmines." [115]

2024 presidential nominee

On July 4, 2024, Moulton was the third U.S. representative to call for Joe Biden to withdraw from the 2024 United States presidential election. [116]

Personal life

On June 23, 2017, Moulton announced his engagement to his girlfriend Liz Boardman, a senior client partner at an executive search firm. [117] They were married at the Old North Church in Marblehead, Massachusetts, on September 22, 2017. [118] She took on his last name, becoming Liz Moulton. [119] Their first child was born in October 2018. [120] In 2019, Moulton announced that he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) following his service in the Marine Corps. [121] On August 29, 2020, Moulton announced that the family was expecting a second child, who was born in February 2021. [122]
