My mother fought Alzheimer’s for thirteen years. I'm proud to lead the bipartisan reauthorization of the Alzheimer’s semipostal stamp, which has raised almost $2 million for Alzheimer’s research. Each letter sent with this stamp offers hope to families & gets us closer to a cure.
The Trump administration is turning the clock back on school civil rights to the 1960s: cutting staff, gutting the Department of Education, and eliminating tools that protect our kids from harm. All students deserve to live up to their potential with a school system that supports that.
Fair housing laws only work when local organizations can investigate violations and enforce laws. I’m proud of the Mass. Fair Housing Center for standing against Trump’s cruel attacks on fair housing groups. Housing is a human right. Everyone deserves to find a home without fear of discrimination.
Trump wants Congress to bankroll his illegal war with Iran with a $1.5 trillion Pentagon budget. I voted no. Not a dime more for endless war. It's time to put people before the Pentagon.

Private equity gutted Steward Health Care and closed two hospitals in Massachusetts. Patients & health workers suffered, and communities were left to clean up the mess. Never again. I’m proud to reintroduce the Health Over Wealth Act with @jayapal.house.gov to stop this corporate greed.
Trump and Rubio are reckless hypocrites. They want to allow Saudi Arabia to develop nuclear technologies while starting a war with Iran under the guise of preventing an Iranian nuclear bomb. This deal will make us all less safe. We must stop a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.
Trump’s Big Ugly Bill has stripped SNAP from 4 million people. Families shouldn’t be forced to choose between putting food on the table and paying the bills. We must reverse these cruel cuts—in the richest country in the world, no one should go hungry.
“X” is using its rebrand to try to avoid FTC privacy requirements. We all see this for what it is: Elon Musk—the richest man in the world—asking for a pass from Trump’s FTC. Unacceptable. The FTC must reject this petition.
The climate crisis is a five alarm fire. Thanks to arsonist-in-chief Donald Trump, our quality of life is up in smoke. I'm fighting to pass legislation to help Americans survive extreme heat and protect communities from the growing health impacts of the climate crisis.
Attacking civilian targets is a war crime, and Donald Trump is a war criminal.
Impeachment. 25th amendment . Remove Trump from office now and end this war.
Trump is killing efficiency and crushing consumer choice, making it harder to buy cost-cutting appliances and cars. Fuel efficiency standards have saved American drivers $5 trillion since 1975. My Gas Money Saved Act would bring them back.
.@pressley.house.gov is right: Our economy suffers when Black women do not earn fair wages. That’s why we’re fighting back against Trump’s inequality agenda so that Black women earn equal pay for equal work.
