Great to stop by Working for Worcester’s Build Day rally! Students from colleges all over central MA graciously spent their weekend renovating parks, schools, and public places—thank you Holy Cross for organizing this incredible event to help make our community a cleaner place to live!
Making our communities cleaner & healthier shouldn’t be a partisan issue.
Great to attend Worcester Regional Environmental Council’s 36th annual Earth Day Cleanup Kickoff! Everyone deserves a clean & healthy place to live, work and play—I’m so thankful for the volunteers cleaning up our city!
Great to meet this week with AARP to talk about how I’m fighting to protect social security & Medicaid so our seniors can live with dignity.
THANK YOU for all you do to support our senior community!
This is a victory for fair competition, artists squeezed by bad deals, and fans gouged by exorbitant fees.
If the U.S. is serious about protecting consumers, we must hold corporations accountable and bust corrupt monopolies.
Kuwait's detention of U.S. citizen & journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin over social media posts is a serious violation of his right to freedom of expression. Vague claims of “national security” are not a valid reason to violate human rights. Release Ahmed. Journalism is not a crime!
In the dead of the night, Republicans tried to pass a shady FISA bill that lets the government continue to violate your rights without a warrant.
Thankfully we defeated Speaker Johnson and the White House’s amateur attempt to jam it through without real debate.
This overreach won't fly.
It’s a cult.
Trump Jr. advises Polymarket.
The CFTC dropped their Polymarket probe last year without bringing charges.
I asked the CFTC Chairman, Michael Selig, did the White House ask for that?
He was “insulted” by my simple question. Guess what he didn’t do? Answer.
All but one House Republican just voted to raise your gas prices.
Yet another Jan 6 terrorist was caught exploiting children because Trump let him go free.
When will Republicans finally admit that pedophiles should be behind bars—not protected by the President and on the streets abusing our kids?
This administration is filled with freaks.
It’s Tax Day.
Republicans promised working families relief. What they delivered was a bait and switch: higher gas prices, higher grocery bills, and more tax giveaways for billionaires.
That’s the Big Ugly Law in a nutshell.
As a Catholic American, I’m horrified by Trump’s immoral and unjust war of choice. I’m with Pope Leo.
These giant corporations didn't pay a cent in taxes.
Our tax code is written of, by, and for the rich and well-connected who profit off your labor while you work hard and play by the rules.
We need to fight for a system that puts working people ahead of billionaires.
The only people getting massive tax returns this year are the mega rich.
Meanwhile, working folks are $3,200 poorer because of Trump’s stupid tariffs & his costly war of choice with Iran.
Republicans are fighting for the billionaire Epstein class—and they’re leaving you behind.
As part of my #EndHungerNow Tour, @whipkclark.bsky.social & I visited Hosmer Elementary in Watertown, which is at the forefront of making sure kids get nutritious meals. School meal programs need more resources, which is why I’m pushing to pass my bill, the Healthy Meals Help Kids Learn Act!
Access to healthy food & quality healthcare are human rights—but we've too often failed to connect good nutrition & better health outcomes.
That’s why I’m urging Congress to fund Food is Medicine initiatives & make nutrition a core pillar of our healthcare system.

It’s almost like working people don’t like it when the government rips away their health insurance to give billionaires a massive tax break—and wastes billions on a reckless war of choice that’s making everything in life more expensive…
