Dachea Fluerimond should be alive today. But like many Black women seeking maternal care, her pain was dismissed, delegitimized, & ignored. This Black Maternal Health Week, I'm more resolved than ever to end the maternal morbidity crisis that is still ravaging our communities.
Rep. Ayanna Pressley poses for a photo with a painting portrait of Dachea Fluerimond.
Our subpoena was clear: Pam Bondi must testify under oath about the White House cover up of the Epstein files. And she must comply or we will hold her in contempt. Survivors deserve accountability and healing — and we won't stop fighting to deliver just that.
The House passed our extension of TPS for Haiti with a 224 vote victory of Democrats & Republicans alike. This has been a long-fought battle to defend our Haitian neighbors & our communities, and we're not letting up. The Senate must take action without delay.
IT'S OFFICIAL: The House has passed our extension of TPS for Haiti. This win wouldn't be possible without the strength & organizing of our movement to defend our Haitian neighbors. To those in the #MA7 & beyond, this is for you. The Senate must pick this up without delay.
The U.S. House passes Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s legislation to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haiti.
ICYMI: My discharge petition to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haiti has advanced in the House. Democrats, Republicans, & Independents voted for it because they know it's good policy & the right thing to do. Tomorrow, the House must pass this bill & help save lives.
BREAKING: I took to the House floor to force a vote on extending Temporary Protected Status for Haiti. We won the first important vote in this process, and now we're a step closer to getting this done. The House must move with urgency and pass this legislation without delay.
More than 350,000 Haitians in the US face the threat of losing TPS, living with fear and uncertainty & the risk of being separated from their families. On the Hill for the #TPS4Haiti press conference this morning @pressley.house.gov @haitianbridge.bsky.social @fwd.us @alianzaamericas.bsky.social
Right now, more than 350,000 Haitians in the US face the threat of losing Temporary Protected Status. It is cruel, unlawful, & life-threatening. This week, we're forcing the House to vote on extending TPS for Haiti. This is good policy, good for families, & good for America.
Our subpoena requires Pam Bondi to appear before House Oversight, regardless of her title. She was a no-show today & is complicit in the White House cover up of the Epstein files. If she continues to ignore the law, we will hold her in contempt. Survivors deserve nothing less.
Trump's attempts to end TPS for Haiti, Venezuela, Syria, and other nations in crisis is cruel, unlawful, & life-threatening. That's why we’re using every tool to push back—in Congress and the courts. SCOTUS must uphold the law and preserve these protections for our neighbors.
The 350,000+ Haitian nationals who call this country home contribute greatly to civic life, to our economy, & to industries like healthcare, construction, & hospitality. That’s why I’m pushing to extend TPS for Haiti. Our communities are stronger because of our Haitian neighbors.
On Yom HaShoah, we honor the millions of Jews murdered by the Nazi regime & stand with our Jewish siblings who continue to shoulder the burden of generational trauma. Today & everyday, we fight for our shared humanity, reject anti-semitism, & build a future free of hate.
Haitian TPS holders are not abstract policy debates. They're our neighbors, restauranteurs, and community members who are like family. We must extend TPS for Haiti and protect the workers who make our communities feel like home.
Mario Umana Academy in East Boston is a community anchor for all who call the school & neighborhood their home. I recently sat down with school leadership & students to discuss how we can continue making this academy a place of safety, learning, & liberation for every student.

Housing. Paid leave. Healthcare. Student debt. Just a few of the many issues Trump should be focused on tackling for the American people. Instead, he's spending at least $2 billion a day on a reckless, unauthorized war that's harming our service members & civilians alike. Shameful.
Our Haitian neighbors are deeply rooted in our communities and essential to our economy. And terminating TPS for Haiti would be devastating & destabilizing, especially in Boston. That's why we're fighting hard to extend Haiti TPS and we're closer than ever to getting it done.
40% of households in MA are food insecure—a damning statistic made worse by Trump & Republicans' cuts to food assistance programs. Thank you Greater Boston Food Bank and Mass General Brigham for spotlighting this crisis and equipping us with the data we need to end hunger once and for all.

These numbers are damning. Families were already being crushed by Trump's tariffs, and now his reckless war is costing folks more than ever on groceries, gas, & electric bills. Trump is attacking everyone & everything but the affordability crisis, and the people deserve better.
