We cannot be silent in the face of white nationalists marching in our nation’s capitol. From Massachusetts to Washington D.C. hatred and bigotry have no place here.

Today, I wrote with @warren.senate.gov to four federal agencies for possible federal assistance following the sewage break into the Merrimack River. I will continue working closely with @massgovernor.bsky.social and state and local officials to support the Merrimack Valley and the North Shore.
No answer is an answer. Both @frost.house.gov & I wrote to ICE on their alleged “domestic terrorist” database used to track protestors and were sent different answers evading the truth. Surveilling Americans for lawfully protesting is unacceptable. ICE must answer our questions.
On the 250th anniversary of America’s independence, we reaffirm our core values of dignity & justice by standing with immigrant communities. My resolution with @ramirez.house.gov reasserts our commitment that those yearning to be free find refuge & that freedom belongs to everyone.
Donald Trump jacked up plane prices with his war in Iran and now is making it easier for airlines to charge consumers hidden junk fees all just in time for holiday travel. Trump’s DOT continues to fulfill the airline industry’s wish list while selling out the traveling family.
I’ve secured millions of dollars for water projects in the Merrimack Valley and am working to provide another $20 million in authorized Army Corps funding.
I'm working with state and local officials to address the wastewater overflow in the Merrimack River. Our communities can't shoulder this alone—that’s why Congress must pass my request for a robust water bill with billions of additional dollars for water and sewer infrastructure.
The EPA proposed a rule that would convert clean air safeguards into a fast-track for data centers and fossil fuel plants. EPA’s duty is to protect Americans from pollution, not to shield corporations from accountability. The agency must withdraw this rule.
Today, the Supreme Court reaffirmed a fundamental promise of the 14th Amendment: if you're born in the United States, you're an American citizen. We have, and always will be, a nation of immigrants. Today we celebrate. Tomorrow, we keep fighting to protect our democracy.
Today, the far-right Supreme Court again cleared the way for Trump and MAGA Republicans to discriminate against the trans community. This decision tears trans athletes from their teams and the sports they love. We will keep fighting. Discrimination and hate will not win.
I will continue to fight alongside my partner @pressley.house.gov in this fight for TPS as we push the Senate to act. We won’t stop until we protect all TPS holders.
Haitian workers and entrepreneurs are essential members of our community and drivers of our economy. Trump's Supreme Court "win" is a devastating lost for small businesses in Massachusetts and across the country.
The Supreme Court ruled today that states can count timely postmarked ballots arriving after Election Day. Voting should be easy and accessible for all. As the Trump administration pushes to limit mail voting, we must keep fighting to protect every American's right to vote.
I am heartbroken by the reporting out of Venezuela and praying for the hundreds of victims and families still searching for their loved ones. We must come together to provide relief for Venezuela in this devastating moment.
