Restore basic equity to our tax code. Wealthy families shouldn’t pay a lower tax rate than hardworking middle-class families. In Congress, Lori wants to close the loopholes that unfairly position middle-class families and don’t allow them to take full advantage of the economy.

Evidence
Trahan's official House press release says she voted against the Republican reconciliation package, argues it does nothing for families facing higher costs, and says the bill omitted language that would have blocked a Trump arrangement to erase more than $100 million in alleged tax liabilities and penalties. The release also says a prior Republican reconciliation bill financed a tax cut that overwhelmingly benefited the wealthiest Americans.
Her official homepage's legislative updates list a June 8 yea vote on H.R. 8466, the Taxpayer Resources Used in Emergencies Accountability Act. The same current updates on the page are focused on other bills and news items, not on a tax-code equity overhaul.
Assessments
The provided evidence shows Lori Trahan continuing to argue against tax policies that favor wealthy taxpayers and to vote on tax-adjacent legislation, but it does not show that she enacted, sponsored to passage, or materially advanced a measure that actually closed the specific loopholes described in the promise. Because she remains in federal office and the record here shows issue engagement without a completed outcome, the promise is best scored as unresolved rather than delivered, partial, or never.
