Someone Asked: “Who is Hong Tran?”
Hong Tran is a public interest lawyer with the Northwest Justice Project who jumped into the Democratic primary against Maria Cantwell.
Tran seems pretty cool to me given that all I know about her is this: I wrote a 3,000 word article back in 1999 zooming in on a case she took up on behalf of low-income folks who were getting forced out of a trailer park in Renton thanks to $1.5 billion (today) developer Trammell Crow Residential.
she's asian, assertive, and forthright...but a little heavy on the bottom. I consider her to be a favorable type of immigrant.
