I am relieved about the release of the 14-year-old girl picked up by federal agents yesterday. I will continue to do everything I can to support her case. Her safety and wellbeing need to be ensured.
Classic Trump. Faced with a tragic US mistake that cost the lives of 168 children in Iran, Trump, against all evidence, blames Iran. I was proud to join my Democratic colleagues in writing to Trump to demand the truth. Trump must own up to this catastrophe now.
Trump is doubling down on his illegal tariff taxes and putting even more pain on Main Street. American small businesses, workers, and families can’t wait for another court decision. We must pass the Small Business Liberation 2.0 Act and stop Trump's tariff madness.
Offshore wind means local union jobs, economic wins for Massachusetts communities, and cheap clean power that protects us from global oil price shocks. New Bedford is showing how to get it done—now Trump needs to back off his unlawful attacks so we can keep building.
Americans are paying for this war at the pump. Americans are paying for this war with their lives. Now Trump and Republicans are asking Americans to foot the bill for more of this war with their tax dollars. No. No more funding for this reckless war.
Gas prices are soaring at home, but instead of ending his illegal and reckless war abroad, Trump is easing sanctions on Russia to sell more oil. Trump’s war is now benefitting his buddy Putin, who is helping Iran. And more money for Putin will hurt Ukraine. What a disaster.
Trump’s illegal war with Iran is hitting Americans hard—at the pump, at the grocery store, and on their utility bills. Americans deserve to know what the cost of Trump’s reckless actions will be for themselves and their families as he continues this war. I'm calling for answers.
Trump’s strikes on oil infrastructure in Iran released massive plumes of toxic smoke, inflicting environmental warfare on innocent Iranian families—alarming their loved ones in Massachusetts and worldwide. This is a human rights violation. Trump must stop this illegal war.
Trump is lying and children are dying in Iran. Trump claimed again that Iran attacked a girls’ school where 175 people died, mostly children, using a Tomahawk missile. Not true. Only the US uses Tomahawks in this war. Trump must own up to this tragedy. We must end this war.
For 25+ years, green card holders and other lawful immigrants have been eligible for SBA loans, creating jobs and investing in communities. Now, 5+ million entrepreneurs are completely cut off from SBA loans. Trump's SBA must immediately reverse its cruel, anti-immigrant policies.
