Trump promised to lower prices on day one. Instead, his billionaires-first economic policies, stupid tariffs & illegal war with Iran are pushing prices to record highs. HIS POLICY CHOICES are making your life more expensive while the ultra rich do better than ever before.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social7h ago(source)

Republicans will blame anyone but Donald Trump for the failures of his administration—immigrants, Democrats, Joe Biden, trans people, you name it. Why? To distract you from the greedy corporations, billionaires, and corrupt politicians enriching themselves at your expense.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social10h ago(source)

Great to visit The Highlands, Life Care Center of Leominster, and Veterans Pathways of New England! These organizations are doing incredible work to support our seniors, veterans, and our most vulnerable neighbors. And, a very special happy 106th birthday to Marion Bryant! An incredible milestone!

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social11h ago(source)

When history is written, Republicans in Congress will go down as enablers of a fascist government run by a wannabe dictator. We must stop our country from going down this dark, destructive path before it’s too late.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social1d ago(source)

This is what fascists do. Anyone who cares about America must be ready to fight like hell for the sanctity of our Democracy and our elections. If Trump follows through on this threat to rig the midterms, we won’t have a country anymore.

🚨🚨🚨 WAYNE ALLYN ROOT: You have the right to declare a national security emergency for elections. If you do this in the next month, we will get photo ID, proof of citizenship, and a limit to mail ballots TRUMP: Let me just say stranger things have happened. I'll leave it at that

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social2d ago(source)

Americans in both parties agree: fighting hunger shouldn’t be partisan. Yet Republicans in Washington keep ripping food assistance away from people who need it. The American people know better. Food is a human right—and in the richest country in history, no one should go hungry.

Democrats and Republicans Want Higher SNAP Benefits as Grocery Bills Rise

Majorities of voters from both parties support higher SNAP benefits for people living alone, a new survey has found.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.social2d ago(source)

Community support is so important and it’s exactly what I saw at the Boston Bulldogs running club. Their commitment to building community and support structures for those fighting addiction is an inspiration. So honored to walk with them and hear their incredible stories of perseverance & strength!

This year’s Worcester African Festival was amazing! This is America at its best—neighbors becoming friends and folks from different backgrounds, cultures, and traditions all coming together to build community and celebrate the rich diversity that makes our country stronger.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 31(source)

Sometimes people ask—do I read the mean replies from the MAGA bots?

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 31(source)

Toxic PFAS are poisoning our water & food—causing serious health impacts. That’s why my team & I worked tirelessly to help deliver $1.5 million for groundbreaking research happening in Worcester at @wpiedu.bsky.social where scientists are close to finding a way to eliminate these forever chemicals.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 30(source)

This is outrageous. Americans are getting gouged at the gas pump because of Trump’s Iran War–meanwhile oil companies are DOUBLING their profits off your pain. Republicans reward them with tax breaks and handouts. Democrats will crack down on corporate greed & hold price gougers accountable.

Shell posts best quarterly profit in four years as Iran war boosts oil and gas prices

The bumper result comes as energy majors receive a profit boost from soaring fossil fuel prices amid the Iran war.

How many medical evacuation requests for cancer patients in Gaza have been approved by the Netanyahu government since June? I asked Dr. Fadi Atrash and Dr. Khadra Salameh from Augusta Victoria Hospital in East Jerusalem. Their answer? Zero.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 30(source)

Proud to help cut the ribbon for 36 new apartments & an emergency shelter space that will soon open in Greenfield—bringing housing & support services together under one roof. Supported by major federal funding, this model will give folks the tools they need not just to survive, but to thrive.

Killers. Pedophiles. Stalkers. Rapists. This is the story of the cabal of criminals—violent felons, pardoned by Trump, who attacked our country on January 6, 2021. Watch the trailer below. Full mini-documentary on my YouTube channel: www.youtube.com/watch?v=cFET...

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 29(source)

Democrats need to listen to and respect our voters—not the Washington pundits and DC donor class that for too long has protected a broken economy and failed status quo. It’s time for change.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 28(source)

Trump’s reckless & illegal war with Iran is costing tens of billions of dollars, thousands of innocent lives, and has already killed 18 brave American service members. All the while, prices are soaring even higher. END THIS WAR NOW!

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 28(source)

I recently held a hearing where Venezuelans told me that Trump & Rubio’s corrupt deal with Delcy Rodriguez was failing to provide justice to victims of human rights abuses. This ICC withdrawal is further betrayal of the Venezuelan people.

Rep. Jim McGovern@repmcgovern.bsky.socialJul 28(source)

Trump, Rubio and Hegseth are trying to dismantle the ICC because they fear being held accountable for the war crimes they are committing in office. Theirs is the Impunity Agenda.
