Funding science is a good investment. Every dollar spent returns multiples from which all Americans benefit, through higher standard of living, healthier families, and national defense.

On Wednesday, July 30, I'll be hosting a Congressional Update and Q&A in Newton from 7:30pm-9:00pm. This is an opportunity for you to ask questions and hear updates on how I’m working to represent the district. RSVP here:

Hallucinated drug reviews. Politicized priority vouchers. Purges of top scientists. Rejection notices leaked with unprofessional talk tracks. The Food & Drug Administration is bleeding out its integrity.
The Commissioner needs to change course and focus on the FDA's safety & efficacy mandate.
The president seems to be recognizing, a decade late, that Vladimir Putin is an enemy. Now he must demonstrate strength, not vacillation.

Whether it's skills for health care or the trades, Job Corps can prepare young people to work, pay taxes, and make good decisions. I'll continue to work with the Massachusetts delegation to protect it.
There is a suite of reforms that would make Job Corps more effective, but Washington must treat this program as part of the solution to career-readiness for at-risk youth, not as a punching bag for DOGE.
Frustrated by court orders blocking its funding freeze, the DOL is now refusing to permit background checks on applicants, thus drying up the pipeline of Job Corps trainees. This wastes money and derails career training for youth.
The directors of the Shriver and Grafton Job Corps Centers recently met with me in Washington to discuss the cruel and counterproductive actions by the Department of Labor (DOL) against Job Corps.

Congress mandates that clinical data proving safety & efficacy should be evaluated by scientists who grant approval. The Commissioner's National Priority Voucher is a fear-and-favoritism mechanism that undermines the FDA's integrity.
The Commissioner of the Food & Drug Administration has no authority to offer special approval pathways based on his policy preferences. www.youtube.com/shorts/jajuh...
America is a nation of laws and a nation of immigrants. The Dignity Act honors both.
Today, I reintroduced bipartisan legislation as an original cosponsor — drafted by Congresswoman Veronica Escobar and Congresswoman María Elvira Salazar — that secures the border, fixes the visa backlog, and vests undocumented immigrants with legal rights & responsibilities.
I have spoken to the mayor and will maintain close communication in support of the city and its residents.
I mourn for the nine Fall River residents who died in last night's fire, and I am keeping the over 30 hospitalized residents in my thoughts, wishing them all a full recovery. Thank you to the firefighters and first responders who prevented an even greater tragedy.
Like a deer in the headlights. Instead of weak & confused, the president must be strong on Ukraine. Strength starts with defining victory: a secure eastern border, freedom of navigation in the Black Sea, and accession to the European Union.
Putting RFK Jr. in charge of vaccines is like making a flat-earther the head of NASA.
Housing & healthcare have cost disease. Treating it must be core to the Democrats' agenda for financial freedom.
My essay in The Economist: www.economist.com/by-invitatio...
After a few hours of performative opposition, the House GOP is caving to Trump’s Medicaid cuts & debt binge. It’s bad for Massachusetts and unfair to the middle class.
Here with Hakeem as he makes plain for the American public that when Republicans gut health care for millions, Democrats fight back.
