As I head back to Washington, D.C., I will be voting NO on the current Republican funding proposal because it would maintain $1 trillion in cuts to Medicaid and Medicare that fund our local Hospitals, Community Health Centers, and Nursing Homes.
It was inspiring to join Adams Center President Kurt Graham, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joe Dunford, and Jonathan Hirtle for a discussion of the complex national security challenges facing the U.S. at home and abroad both during the Adams administration and today.
To my constituents – I am here in Washington working for you.   Our offices in Washington D.C., Boston, Quincy, and Brockton are open and available to help you navigate this Federal Government Shutdown.
Last week, the courts blocked Trump’s attempt to illegally fire thousands of federal employees. Republicans need to come to the bargaining table to reopen the government and stop with these political games. Federal workers and the American people deserve better.
Sincere thanks to Town Moderator Jason Ross for allowing me to address the Town Meeting to explain the difficult consequences of the Government Shutdown and alerting residents to the assistance that is available through our Congressional Offices in Brockton, Quincy, Boston, and Washington D.C.

I explained why I cannot support Republicans’ massive cuts to Medicaid, which will have a severely damaging effect on all our hospitals, Community Health Centers, and nursing homes, including South Shore Hospital, Brockton Hospital, Good Samaritan Hospital, and Mass General Brigham.
Great to see a packed house at Avon Town Meeting last night. Sincere thanks to Town Meeting Moderator Mike Nelson for allowing me to update residents on the impact of the Federal Government shutdown.
