Republicans passed legislation that requires people to work at least 80 hours per month to receive Medicaid. Over the past two months, Republican leadership worked, on average, for only 56 hours. They wouldn't even meet the work requirements they forced on working families.
The corporate food industry is lobbying Congress to make food safety rules weaker, stop us from banning PFAS & carcinogens in school meals, and push out independent science. To make America healthy again, we must all fight to get toxic chemicals out of our air, water, and food.
Honored to present Karen Jewett and Tom Chipman with Holliston’s Citizen of the Year Award at the 35th Annual Celebrate Holliston Field Day! Two incredibly deserving people who’ve given so much to their community. Proud to represent such a kind and caring town!
Great to stop by the Johnny Appleseed Festival in Leominster! 255 vendors, 36 food vendors, 3 stages of live music—and a huge crowd enjoying a perfect day downtown. Great to celebrate with @massgovernor.bsky.social, Deb Goldberg, and so many friends & neighbors!
Good. Glad to see the free press standing strong against this fascist regime. Today it’s CNN, MSNOW & Politico. Tomorrow it could be the New York Times, ABC, or the AP. The first amendment must be defended at all costs.
Where are the GOP bills to lower costs, deal with the price of housing, or provide relief at the gas pump? Nowhere. Instead, we spend our time debating the culture wars. Under GOP leadership, Congress debates trivial issues passionately & important issues not at all.
Here’s my message to President Xi & Donald Trump ahead of their summit next week: Release prisoners of conscience, give us proof of life for the Panchen Lama, and let him speak if he wants to talk to his people. We must put human rights & political prisoners back on the agenda.
There’s not enough talk about what a bizarre, flagrant narcissist you have to be to consistently refer to yourself in the third person.
Trump: "That war? That war is gonna end very soon. Watch. You just watch. Trump was right about everything. You watch. They're getting decimated. And they want to make a deal so badly. They call. 'We want to make a deal!'" (Note the total silence from the crowd)
