Beth for Democracy | Bethany Andres-Beck for MA-6 Home page for the Bethany Andres-Beck for MA-6 campaign website.

Since then I've announced that I'm challenging Seth Moulton next year in MA-06: bethfordemocracy.com

Not only because of this: he's a New Democrat Ivy League centerist funded by private equity who supports charter schools, opposes Medicare For All and tried to ban TikTok. But also...

Thank you for trusting me enough to ask. I know what it is like to live in a world where some people actually want me to not exist, where they tell wild conspiracy stories about people like me.

When I intend to call something corruption I try to be explicit & specific, so people don't have to guess

Congressman Seth Moulton concerned US falling behind other countries in AI arms race One of the biggest concerns Moulton has over AI is its use in military warfare, especially in the hands of our adversaries.

My opponent is worried we might fall behind if we don't have chatbots decide who to bomb. He doesn't seem to mind the taxpayer dollars being wasted on tools that cannot do what they promised.

I'm running for Congress because people should understand what they are regulating: bethfordemocracy.com

This is an example of people who don't understand the difference between different kinds of "AI" making decisions that will hurt real people.

Large-Language Models generate language, not accurate science. The hard part of approving a drug is not writing words.

Software needs to work for us.

It would be more understandable if something actually bad would have happened if he stood up for the safety of all children, Israeli & Palestinian, but nope.

He would disappoint some donors & admit that some of the college protesters had had a point. One or the other of those was too much for him.

My opponent has said that he doesn't approve of what is happening, but he hasn't been willing to do anything about it, or even suggest that he might vote differently in the future if it continues. He has put following the party line above his own conscience, and I consider that an act of cowardice.

American cowardice has left children to starve.

Unlike my opponent, I will not vote to send more weapons to Netanyahu while he prevents food from reaching the families of Gaza.

Every human life has inherent dignity and worth.

The Constitution says that Supreme Court Justices will hold their seats only "during good Behavior".

It is time for Congress to do its job.

Software jobs too often hide abusive working conditions behind decent pay and perks.

Workers in every field have the right to organize for better conditions. Our representatives must update our labor and immigration laws to protect them when they do.

I've known Beth forever, and they are ethical, brilliant, and thoughtful. Electing people who understand tech is more important than ever before, and the side benefit of kicking Seth the transphobe Moulton out of Congress is definitely real. So happy for the constituents of MA-6. Vote for Beth!

I enjoyed my conversation with Assigned Media!

You can help us make the case that the Democratic coalition can get more done for Americans with trans people than without us by chipping in here: secure.actblue.com/donate/beth-...

Congress needs more members like Beth: People who give a shit about other people and about a job well done. People who believe that society is something we owe to each other, something we build together. People who aren’t afraid of bullies or hard work. MA-06 is lucky to have such a great candidate.

If you like! I use any/all pronouns. For example: "she's pretty cool", "they aren't taking corporate money from the companies they are supposed to regulate," or "he's going to be the first non-binary member of Congress."

I've known Beth for ages: wicked smart, understands tech really well, and cares about its impact on ordinary people. We need people in Congress like that.

Beth is a former manager of mine. They are thoughtful about process and people, and smart about intentionally and carefully chipping away at bad legacy structures. They have strong left-liberal values and a commitment to getting things done. I am overjoyed by their candidacy and hope they WIN.

I know Beth and what excites me is that we need somebody who can see through the bullshit big tech is bombarding us with because of decades of experience. I want somebody who fights for me and not who fights to make it easier for tech to exploit me.

I’m so glad someone I’m proud to know is running. I officially endorse

I don't think standing up for kids being attacked by fascists is a "purity test".

I think it is the bare minimum.

Beth Andres-Beck smiles at the camera. They have short hair, a goatee and glasses, and are holding a sign that says "Power Belongs With We The People". Behind them a line of people, many in ball caps and shorts and holding signs, stand along the sidewalk on a sunny day.

A great morning at the weekly Middleton Hands Off rally!

It was so much fun to connect with folks excited about the race. My favorite response was from Marie: "We saw the article in the Globe and I told George, 'That's our Beth!'"

I am running for Congress to fight for our country. I’m not here to be polite – I am here to stand up for the working class. Together we’ll prove what should’ve been obvious all along: trans people aren’t political props - we’re leaders.
