Adrian lives with spinal muscular atrophy, a rare medical condition that requires specific treatment & care. But thanks to Boston Children’s Hospital, he’s receiving the exceptional, compassionate care he deserves that supports his immediate needs & long-term care.

20-year-old Sama Safi is a U.S. citizen, honor student, & beloved by everyone who knows her. Two days ago, IDF soldiers raided her home, terrorized her family, & detained her without charges. The US must secure her release & demand accountability from the Israeli government.

Yesterday, the IDF seized 4 students from their homes in the West Bank, including 20-year-old American, Sama Safi. The Israeli govt didn’t tell her family or the U.S. Embassy where or why she was being taken & is holding her without charges. America must secure her release NOW.

Dictators try to shutter museums, censor history, and whitewash the truth. But we know the truth. And we won’t allow Donald Trump to continue his campaign of censorship anywhere in Massachusetts—including at the Bunker Hill Monument in the #MA7.

Quotes about slavery, immigrants, and war memorials slated for removal from Bunker Hill historic site - The Boston Globe

Federal officials termed the removals of the three quotes “a routine exhibit refresh.”

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govJun 4(source)

Accountability for fraud must also include restorative justice to make the lives of victims whole again. But Trump used his clemency power on Lawrence Duran and wiped away $87 million in restitution for victims of healthcare fraud. We should be having a hearing about that.

BREAKING: We passed an Iran War Powers Resolution in the House to rein in Trump and end his unauthorized, reckless war. The Senate must immediately follow suit and act to end this war.

The House has passed a resolution to limit President Donald Trump’s war powers in Iran, a significant rebuke to Trump and his handling of the conflict. https://cnn.it/49DSGUz

Over 3,000 innocent people have been killed in Lebanon by the Israeli military & over a million displaced. We are talking about children, elders, & loved ones. I urge my colleagues to support Rep. Rashida Tlaib's War Powers Resolution on the floor this week & act to end this war now.

Trump realized he can’t get away with rewarding white supremacists who attack our democracy. If our government wants to create a reparations fund, it should begin with Black folks harmed by the trauma & inequities caused by the original sins of this nation.

BREAKING: The Trump administration is scrapping a $1.8 billion "anti-weaponization" fund, Todd Blanche says, after Republican backlash.

For 24 years, Robert Kilduff Jr. served the Boston Fire Department. Bobby was a Marine veteran, a proud third generation fire fighter, and a beloved partner & father. I extend my deepest condolences to his loved ones & the Boston Firefighters Local 718 family.

Transgender servicemembers should be allowed to serve with dignity and respect. Their contributions and sacrifices keep everyone at home safe. Trump & Hegseth's ban is unconstitutional and discriminatory—and it must be reversed immediately.

Appeals court blocks removal of transgender troops, but allows restrictions on recruits

An appeals court has affirmed a lower court's decision blocking the Department of Defense from removing current transgender servicemembers.

To our LGBTQ+ siblings in the #MA7 & across the country: Happy Pride Month. This Congresswoman sees you, loves you, & celebrates you. And I'll always fight to ensure everyone can show up in the world as their full authentic selves.

That’s why in Congress I am fighting to ensure true progress is met with policy—working to advance HR40, legislation to confront the lasting legacy of slavery and advance reparations. Because reparations are not charity. They are a debt long overdue. We need reparations NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 31(source)

From Tulsa to Boston, our legacies move through us. As we mark the 105th commemoration of the Tulsa Race Massacre, we honor the Black lives stolen in Tulsa and carry the mantle left by Mother Viola Ford Fletcher, Hughes Van Ellis, and others who led calls for essential reparative justice.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we need to continue breaking stigmas & barriers that restrict access to care. Because invisible scars don't just heal on their own. That's why I keep fighting for policies that make mental health care more accessible & affordable.

Voting by mail is safe, secure, & constitutional. Even Donald Trump votes by mail. Yet, he wants to disenfranchise millions who vote by mail because the American people overwhelmingly reject his failed policies. And he can't win without cheating every step of the way.

A federal judge declines to block President Trump’s executive order tightening rules on mail-in voting in a loss for the Democratic Party, whose lawyers argue that it could disenfranchise millions of voters.

I stand with the fathers, mothers, & loved ones behind the wall at Delaney Hall holding a hunger strike to protest ICE's abuse. They’re suffering from inhumane conditions, delayed medical care & fear of retaliation. Shut down abusive ICE facilities like Delaney Hall. Abolish ICE. Reunite families.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 29(source)

Exactly. Not only is Trump’s slush fund unlawful, it’s a downright denial of reparative justice for those who deserve it. Trump would sooner reward white supremacists who attacked our democracy than Black folks plagued by the inequities perpetuated by slavery & discrimination.

Pam Bondi obstructed the release of the Epstein files, violated the law, & denied transparency to the public and survivors. The cover up continued today with Bondi’s closed-door deposition because this White House is afraid of the truth coming out. All to protect Donald Trump, not survivors.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMay 27(source)

Donald Trump wants every federal worker to sign an NDA. Because he knows his Administration is breaking the law repeatedly & he’s afraid of whistleblowers telling the American people the truth. To our whistleblowers: don’t forget you’re protected under federal law.

Detainees are facing a public health crisis behind detention walls and this surge of suicides should alarm everybody. There is no reforming this. We must abolish ICE.
