@massago.bsky.social knows exactly what’s in the Constitution. It’s why she’s led lawsuit after lawsuit against the Trump administration — the most lawless and corrupt administration in history. Like Massachusetts, she respects the rule of law.

It was an honor to have visited the Nova Exhibit in South Boston and have heard from survivors of the horrific October 7th attack. Onn, Noa, and Raz, thank you for sharing your stories. They are a reminder of the work ahead to end the violence and achieve lasting peace.
Trump and MAGA Republicans would rather shut down our air space than agree to protect your health care.
One year on, the closure of Carney Hospital and Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Massachusetts has left neighborhoods in crisis—ambulance times up, care farther away, and trust broken. I’m working to rebuild our health system for everyone.

When tariffs hit, small toy stores get boxed out. Prices for toys are skyrocketing—from race cars to building sets—and families are left footing the bill. Small business owners are sounding the alarms that this is not normal—and it’s past due that we listen.

Small biz owners like the founder of Lil Mama’s Sweets & Treats gave up everything to serve their communities. Now, Trump’s tariffs are threatening to close their doors. Small businesses shouldn’t have to gamble on survival.

Small business owners shouldn’t have to gamble their livelihoods because of Trump’s reckless tariffs. The owner of Buckle Me Baby Coats expected to pay $30K in tariffs, but she ended up owing $93K. That’s not trade policy—it’s economic sabotage.

Small businesses don’t have Mar-a-Lago memberships or Trump’s golden invites. They get hit hardest by his cruel tariffs—all while billionaires cash in. I’m fighting back with my Senate colleagues to end this injustice.

Exactly as predicted. This is why Trump's orders to begin testing are so dangerous. The US must not restart nuclear testing. The consequences are too dire.
Bad for Republicans? It’s bad for people like Jeff in Natick who will see the cost of his cancer treatment skyrocket to over $300,000 a year if we do not extend the ACA premium tax credits. That’s who we’re fighting for.
America doesn’t have a food shortage—we have a justice shortage.
Trump is illegally withholding $5.5 billion in food aid.
It’s time to get food to families, fund our food banks, and stop this moral failure.
“This isn’t about politics. This is about families.”
Jeffrey Lee lost his wife to cancer and now raises his daughter alone. As a small business owner from Newton, he knows what skyrocketing premiums mean: impossible choices.

Jeff Sternick, a lung cancer survivor and Lung Association advocate from Natick, knows firsthand how premium hikes threaten access to affordable health care.
We need to extend tax credits—not let Trump and MAGA Republicans rip them away.
Electric bills up, union jobs down—that’s Trump energy economics. I’ll keep fighting for the more than 158,000 clean energy jobs that Trump has axed.
Thousands of families are already at risk of losing food access because of Trump’s cruel shutdown. No one should go hungry.
My office is here to help. Call (617) 565‑8519 or visit markey.senate.gov/shutdown for resources.
Today, on the first-ever #USAIDDay, we honor decades of American compassion, courage, and global leadership.
Trump may try to gut foreign aid—but he can’t kill compassion.
The spirit of USAID lives on in public servants who believe America can still be a force for good.
97% of Bostonians have health insurance—and that means access to care, vaccines, cancer screenings, and peace of mind.
MAGA Republicans want to rip that away with their cruel premium hikes. We won’t let them.
Thank you, Dr.Ojikutu, for fighting for public health.
True or False?
In 1977, Republicans in Congress helped pass a law granting Jimmy Carter king-like powers to impose tariffs on any good, from any country, for any reason?
I’ll let you take a guess.
This case is small businesses v. Trump—and Main Street must prevail.
