Donald Trump is throwing gasoline on the flames of war in Iran, while at home, Americans are paying higher prices for gasoline at the pump. Take a walk with me to see how prices are skyrocketing as a result of this illegal war.
Trump’s illegal war in Iran is causing the largest oil shock in history. Gas prices are spiking, and Americans will be feeling the pain at the pump. Meanwhile, Trump is not ruling out sending ground troops into Iran. Americans do not want an expensive and endless war abroad.
This is the biggest oil disruption in history

Today we celebrate the strength, leadership, and achievements of women in Massachusetts and around the world. International Women’s Day is a reminder that the fight for equality, dignity, and opportunity for every woman continues, and must continue every day.
So much joy in Easthampton this evening at the CitySpace ArtWalk. Proud to support the artists, musicians, and community that make this city special, and celebrate the $3.5 million I secured to renovate the historic Old Town Hall.

Trump is continuing his crusade of erasure at our parks. This time, removing films that tell the history of women and immigrant labor organizing against terrible conditions at the Lowell Mills. Trump cannot erase the truth. Watch one of the films now on my YouTube: youtu.be/PhfN-c_Qv3o
Last year, the Trump admin unjustifiably shuttered the Springfield @SBAgov branch office, leaving entrepreneurs in western Mass hours away from in-person services and community partners in the lurch. I’m working with @warren.senate.gov, @neal.house.gov, and @repmcgovern.bsky.social to get answers.
Trump’s call for Iran’s “unconditional surrender” is just a road to endless war. We need an immediate ceasefire, not excuses to keep fighting. Trump is increasing the danger that he will send ground troops into Iran. We need diplomacy before this becomes a disaster.
Screenshot of headline that reads, "Trump’s war aim: Iran’s ‘unconditional surrender.’ The president's message — coming after days of mixed signals from administration officials — articulates that the U.S. has no intention of providing Tehran with an off-ramp." Full text linked in reply.
Electricity rates are spiking as AI data centers pop up across the country. Households and small businesses should not be made to subsidize data centers while they already struggle to get by. Our nation's public utility commissions set household rates--they can act now.
Screenshot of article text, full text linked in reply.
I’m calling on ICE to investigate the death of Emmanuel Damas, a Massachusetts community member who died in ICE custody after being denied timely medical care. His family, and dozens of families like his, deserve the truth about ICE's treatment of their loved ones. ICE must be held accountable.
Screenshot of headline that reads, "Haitian man living in Boston dies in ICE custody, family says." Full text linked in reply.
Republicans passed the Big Ugly Bill to force the government to attempt to sell our lands and waters to fossil fuel companies. The first sale off the coast of Alaska got ZERO bids: no one wants their fossil fuel fantasies. Trump—cut your losses and leave our lands alone.
Screenshot of post reading: 

Welp: ZERO takers on the Trump administration's first lease sale for oil and gas development in the Cook Inlet, Alaska. Bidding closed today with no bids. 

The lease sale was supposed to spark new interest in oil and gas development in the region. It doesn't seem to be working.
