Young people deserve to know they’ll be able to afford groceries, buy a home, & raise a family when they grow up.

Enjoyed meeting with students from Sullivan & Sutton Middle Schools. Their inquisitive questions & inspirational stories give me great hope for the future of our country!

Good. Rip Trump’s disgraced name off the memorial meant to honor John F. Kennedy’s legacy.

It never belonged there in the first place.

The U.S. district judge also ruled that the institution’s board had not done its due diligence when voting to close for renovations.

Thanks to my friend Richard Gere, who’s championing my bill that would elevate the Central Tibetan Administration & give them the power to negotiate with China.

The Tibetan people have the right to choose who governs them. It’s time we exercise our power to uphold that right.

Honored to host high school students in my district at Doherty Memorial High School to share information about the Congressional Nomination process to U.S. Service Academies.

Grateful that there are so many young people considering a career in our armed services—they’re an inspiration!

Thanks U.S. Representative Bill Keating for hosting the 8th stop of my Tour at PACE Food Bank & New Bedford Public Schools culinary kitchen in New Bedford!

The work they’re doing is so important in our mission to ensure no one goes hungry in the richest country in history.

Thank you!

Medicaid is the backbone of services that allow people with disabilities to live, work, and participate in their communities. It’s shameful that Republicans are slashing programs that make that possible.

Great to join the 35th annual Providers of Central Massachusetts Legislative Breakfast in Worcester—they’re fighting hard for folks’ right to live with dignity & respect.

The U.S. must stand for those who defend human rights.

Ruth Lopez has been imprisoned for political reasons. The government of El Salvador should release her immediately. The Trump Administration should stand with human rights defenders, not the dictator who jails them.

FREE RUTH LOPEZ!!!

Trump is destroying America’s long legacy of defending religious freedom at home and abroad.

Click the link in the comments to read my oped in RNS about why it matters—and what Congress can do to reverse course before it’s too late.

At a time when too many people are trying to pull us apart, organizations like the Retired Friends of Greendale are doing great work to build community.

It was an honor to present them with a flag flown over the Capitol to celebrate America’s 250th—a reminder that our common love of country is stronger than what divides us.
