Former North Andover Select Board Chair Tom Licciardello Endorses Tram Nguyen for Congress

Andover, MA – Today, State Representative Tram Nguyen announced the endorsement of former North Andover Select Board Chair Tom Licciardello. 

"I have known State Representative Tram Nguyen since she first chose to enter public service, and I have been consistently impressed by her dedication and integrity,” said Chair Licciardello. “She brings a deep passion for human rights and a moral clarity that is urgently needed in Congress today. Tram is a tireless advocate who will work relentlessly to represent the interests of our community. I am proud to support her candidacy."

ABOUT TRAM T. NGUYEN: State Representative Tram Nguyen has overcome tough challenges her entire life. At just five years old, Tram came to the United States as a refugee after her family fled Vietnam’s authoritarian regime with only $100, a few suitcases, and a dream.

She has always been a fighter, becoming the first in her family to graduate from college, and as an attorney with the Greater Boston Legal Services standing up for survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, veterans, immigrants, low-wage workers, and people with disabilities. In that role, Tram became a member of UAW Local 2320.

In 2018, Tram took on a deeply entrenched Republican incumbent and won by ten points, making history as the first Vietnamese American woman elected to public office in Massachusetts. Since then, she has served in the Massachusetts House of Representatives as a bold champion for climate action, affordable housing, workers’ rights, and economic opportunity for all.
