Hundreds of thousands of jobs & billions in Bay State GDP rely upon NIH funding.

Just when diseases like Alzheimer's, heart disease, and cancer could be made treatable, we could see our young scientists discouraged, discoveries withering on the vine, and US global leadership in science and technology receding.
Trump's NIH policy is a $2 billion chainsaw to the Massachusetts economy.

Hot-rock geothermal, which has cross-partisan appeal as a way to produce clean & reliable energy through drilling, is an example of how America can use the Inflation Reduction Act's tech-neutral tax credits to turbocharge our clean-energy dominance.
The Trump administration's self-defeating decision to leave the Paris Accord cannot be allowed to derail climate action & clean-energy innovation.

Patients in pain who want a non-addictive option will have to pay more.
First, the pharmacy benefit managers (PBMs) pushed opioids onto prescribers, helping fuel the opioid epidemic.
Now, the PBMs are charging a higher co-pay in Medicare for the first painkiller on the market to match opioids for acute pain.

Patients in pain who want a non-addictive option will have to pay more.
Speaker Johnson's failure to lead an Article I response is yet another demonstration to the American people that House Republicans can't be counted on to curb the chaos & corruption of this administration.
Musk's access to medical data, Social Security payments, and tax refunds violates Americans' privacy and threatens Congress's power of the purse.

Still, through his intellectual leadership, the trend of subsidizing cars at the expense of people is beginning to buckle. I admire the professor's courageous & contrarian wisdom, and I send my respect & condolences to his family & loved ones.
Donald Shoup explained to Americans the high cost of free parking, showing the way toward more walkable downtowns and affordable housing. That argument was near-impossible to get a hearing for when he began making it.

Instead of picking winners & losers in U.S. energy strategy, Congress and the president should set clear objectives on climate action & energy independence, cut red tape, and promote the development of generation & transmission infrastructure.
Trump's attacks on offshore wind have wreaked havoc and confusion for the offshore wind industry, torpedoing a new factory at Brayton Point that cost hundreds of jobs in my district.

To address the scourge of fentanyl, Republicans should advance the three bipartisan bills I helped craft taking aim at Chinese fentanyl manufacturing & distribution. Instead, they are taking a buzzsaw to programs that research and treat opioid-use disorder.

Republicans in Congress are too scared to act, but Democrats are not backing down from upholding the law and kicking Musk out of your family budget.
Elon Musk now has access to & control over your Social Security checks, tax refunds, and Medicare bills. It’s illegal under Section 6103 of the Internal Revenue Code.
