Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
A Lowell woman waited 5 months for a wheelchair repair and ended up in the ER on a ventilator. This isn't a fluke—too many Americans are paying the price when private equity puts profits over patients. I won't stop fighting to get corporate greed out of health care.
14 years ago, DACA opened the door to opportunity for hundreds of thousands of Dreamers. Dreamers are Americans by every measure that matters. They are our neighbors, coworkers, classmates—they grew up here and belong here. Congress must finally provide a pathway to citizenship.
Trump says he reached a deal with Iran to extend the ceasefire and open the Strait of Hormuz. In other words, to get us back to where we were before Trump launched his reckless, expensive, and unnecessary war. Was this worth the lives, money, and risk? No way.
Bunker Hill was the revolution’s first major battle—but it was not the last. The fight for our freedom continues even to this day, as we fight against censorship and tyranny.
Just before SpaceX’s IPO made Elon Musk a trillionaire, Trump gave SpaceX billions in contracts for his dangerous, ineffective, and corrupt “Golden Dome” missile interceptor system. Coincidence? No, corruption.
The road to the FIFA World Cup runs through Foxborough!
Massachusetts is ready to welcome the world and show off the communities, culture, and spirit that make the Commonwealth so special.
Children are 25% of the population, but they are 100% of our future. The Child Safety and Well-Being Act would make sure the federal government promotes the interests of children through policymaking, ensuring they are represented when we make decisions that impact their lives.
Lee Zeldin won’t take action to protect our health and environment from data centers. In fact, he’s willing to pollute our air and our water to make them easier to build. Americans deserve better than an EPA that puts Big Tech profits over public interest.
Clayton defended Trump’s anti-weaponization slush fund and echoed false attacks on the integrity of our elections. Trump didn’t pick him to serve America’s intelligence community, but to weaponize it against Trump's political enemies and help steal the election. I'm voting no.
Trump promised he would end wars. Instead, he launched two reckless wars against Iran and continues to threaten more—putting people at risk and telling us he “doesn’t care” about rising oil and gas costs.
In case Trump hasn’t noticed, his madman theory of diplomacy is not working.
It has been 63 years since the landmark Equal Pay Act was signed into law, prohibiting sex-based wage discrimination. Today we celebrate the law’s legacy, while still fighting to advance true fairness for all workers.
