Representative Tram Nguyen's election in 2018 brought Massachusetts one person closer to gender and racial equity in the State House, but there's so much further to go: 70% of state legislators identify as male, and only 6 legislators as women of color. Listen in to a conversation about whether the gender and racial imbalance at the top of Beacon Hill makes it possible or impossible to pass the ROE Act this session. Rep. Nguyen's successful strategy in wining in 2018 was to put her authentic self out to voters, and she has remained true to this approach in her tenure and in her current campaign. What can ROE supporters learn from Rep Nguyen?! Photo: Deadline for action on the ROE Act has been extended to November 12th. Will the legislators act in time?
