Seth Moulton

Overview

Representative Seth Moulton serves Massachusetts in the U.S. House as a Democrat with a military background that appears to influence his legislative approach. His voting record shows consistent engagement on healthcare issues, where he has cast the majority of his recorded votes, supporting most healthcare-related legislation that has come before him. Moulton's position as more moderate than the typical House Democrat is evident in his voting patterns. While he generally aligns with his party, his willingness to occasionally vote against party positions on procedural matters suggests an independent streak. His defense voting record shows more selectivity, with only a third of his defense-related votes in the affirmative. His legislative focus appears concentrated on healthcare policy, which comprises the largest share of his recorded votes. He has also engaged with budget, agriculture, and various other policy areas, though with fewer recorded votes in those categories.
