This Women's History Month, as we fight to codify the Equal Rights Amendment, I'm grateful for this multiracial, intergenerational movement. From the ERA Caucus, to our community advocates & leaders, to our young girls throughout the country—we won't stop pushing for gender equality.

Rogue, violent ICE agents moving with reckless disregard for human life must be held accountable. Massachusetts is leading the way by establishing a new reporting portal. If you witness concerning ICE activity, you can now report the incident to Mass.gov/FedMisconduct.

Migration & reproductive freedom are deeply linked. Reproductive freedom is a fundamental human right but too often man made borders & policies deny people care. Thank you @ramirez.house.gov & the Global Migration Caucus roundtable for this timely & urgent discussion.

Republicans’ so-called “SAVE America Act” is designed to destroy democracy. They want to disenfranchise millions from voting because they know they can’t win with their failed policies.

Royer Perez-Jimenez died by suicide inside a detention center because he could no longer bear the cruelty. A testament to how this Administration & ICE are traumatizing our young people. ICE must be abolished & we will fight for the accountability Royer's family deserves.

The Trump Administration put little Liam Ramos & his dad through hell at the Dilley detention center. And now, their asylum case has been denied. This ruling is cruel, indefensible, & must be overturned immediately.

Pam Bondi must testify under oath and on the record about the Epstein files. Republicans tried to have a closed-door “briefing” filled with lies, but Oversight Democrats walked out. The American people, and most importantly survivors, are through with this White House cover-up.

Our financial system enables big banks and FinTech companies to use our financial data for their own profit. We have the opportunity to change that by supporting CFPB's Open Banking Rule—to empower consumers to decide how their financial data is used and shared.

Trump’s attempts to end Temporary Protected Status for Haiti is cruel & life-threatening for Haitians in the #MA7 & across the country. I joined leaders & advocates to urge SCOTUS to affirm what the lower courts have ruled—that Trump’s push to terminate TPS is unlawful.

Student loan borrowers are suffering because of Trump. The cost of living is sky high and predatory companies & billionaires are profiting off of borrowers’ hardship. We're pushing back in Congress, in the courts, & in community to defend borrowers.

‘The cruelty is just the point’: A broken student loan system has women at the center

Confusion, litigation and the threat of wage garnishment under Trump have left millions of teachers, nurses and other public service workers with few options and little hope.

$2 billion. That's how much it costs taxpayers a DAY for Trump's unauthorized war in Iran. But not a single cent to lower the cost of living, protect healthcare, or ensure our babies, veterans, & seniors don't go hungry. By no means is this war to protect people at home or abroad.

Public health workers are the architects of healthier communities. They build the infrastructure of prevention, care, & resilience that so many rely on. Their leadership doesn’t just matter—it’s essential.
