The main law meant to protect the data you provide to the government was written more than 50 years ago, and it's failing us today.
I'm spearheading the effort to rewrite the Privacy Act of 1974 so it is capable of defending us in 2026 and beyond.

Happy Lunar New Year to all who celebrate in #MA3 and around the world!
May health, prosperity and happiness be yours in this Year of the Fire Horse ✨
Ramadan Mubarak to all who are celebrating here in Massachusetts and across our nation!
This month is a time for reflection, gratitude, and looking out for one another. Wishing you and your families peace, strength, and moments of joy as you break fast and gather together.
Congratulations to Chelmsford High School graduate Chevonne Forgan and her teammate Sophia Kirkby for finishing fifth in women’s doubles luge at the Winter Olympics, the first time women have been able to compete in doubles luge at the Olympic level!
I visited Growing Places in Gardner with @repmcgovern.bsky.social to see the impacts of those cuts on farmers, families, and providers in North Central Massachusetts.
Donald Trump and Republicans in Congress cut $180 BILLION in food assistance to create a slush fund for ICE and cut taxes for their wealthy donors.
NEW: The law that was meant to protect Americans’ most sensitive personal data from government abuse hasn’t been updated in 50 years, and it shows.
I just published a new report detailing my plan to change that. Read more⬇️
My thoughts are with his family and all who were touched by his leadership.
Reverend Jackson carried forward the moral call of equality, gave voice to the marginalized, and inspired generations to believe that progress is possible when we organize and stand together. His legacy will live on in the ongoing work to build a more just and inclusive nation.
I am deeply saddened by the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson, a giant of the civil rights movement who spent his life fighting for justice, dignity, and opportunity for all.
On Presidents’ Day, we honor the service and leadership of past presidents and the mark they have left on our country.
It’s important to celebrate this, even as our current president has shown how little respect he has for his predecessors or our history, values, and institutions.
Pam Bondi determined which Epstein files were released and when.
The exposure of survivors’ personal information and protection of Epstein’s co-conspirators happened on her watch.
Today marks eight years since the horrifying shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida. 17 students & educators were murdered and 17 more were injured.
All these years later, the fight continues to pass gun safety legislation to make sure this kind of tragedy never happens again.
Wishing everyone across #MA3 a Happy Valentine’s Day! ♥️
Hoping you share this day of love with the people you cherish most.
Donald Trump's reckless tariffs have increased prices and made life harder for working families across our country.
Just SIX Republicans had the courage to vote to stop Trump's tariffs and lower costs for the American people.
Donald Trump's EPA Director should stand behind a diesel truck's exhaust for 10 minutes and then tell us that pollution doesn't negatively impact our health.
This is worse than a joke. It's a massive multibillion handout to the biggest corporate polluters in our country.
Great to meet with Massachusetts Association of Community Colleges leaders this week!
Massachusetts is home to some of the best community colleges in the country. Schools like Middlesex Community College, Northern Essex Community College, and Mount Wachusett Community College give students an opportunity to develop the skills they need to succeed in today’s economy.
Grateful as always to @repespaillat.bsky.social, the first ever Dominican chair of @hispaniccaucus.bsky.social, for hosting!
