Pressley’s Statement on House Passage of Cruel Republican Reconciliation Bill
Medicaid is healthcare. SNAP is food assistance.
Both are lifelines and we’re not done fighting for them.
The Senate must reject Republicans’ Big Ugly Bill and protect our families.
Memorial Day is more than a kick start to summer or an excuse to barbecue.
It’s a day of solemn remembrance for those who never returned home.
To our fallen servicemembers and veterans from the #MA7: our hearts are with you and your sacrifices will never be forgotten.
It’s been 5 years since George Floyd was murdered & our communities are still plagued by mass incarceration, police brutality, & overcriminalization.
That’s why I’m reintroducing bold legislation to continue our push toward accountability, healing, & our collective liberation.
We’ll never have true justice for George Floyd.
True justice would be George Floyd alive today.
We owe it to George, his family, and everyone murdered by law enforcement to continue building a more just America where everyone can thrive & live free from fear.
Congrats @BUSPH Class of 2025!
Pursuing a career in public health, especially with public health under attack right now, is a noble act of radical courage.
Keep dreaming and doing the radical Work necessary to build a more just, healthy, and equitable world.
Trump is using Harvard students in his unlawful attempts to silence dissent, sow fear on campuses, and intimidate our immigrant neighbors.
But we cannot and will not give in to bullying.
I’m glad Harvard is standing firm and pushing back, and I’m proud to stand with them.
Republicans’ cruel, callous, and morally bankrupt bill is a shameful betrayal of our shared humanity.
This is a somber day, but this fight isn’t over.
My full statement:
To my Republican colleagues, you can save lives.
You can look your kids in the eye and say that when everything was at stake, you did the right thing.
I’m not begging you for benevolence, I’m asking you for decency.
Do right by your constituents and oppose this shameful bill.
If Republicans were proud of their bill, they’d debate it in the light of day.
Instead, they’re trying to move it under the cover of night like the cult of cowards that they are.
They know that ripping away healthcare and food assistance from millions is harmful and unpopular.
We should NOT be going back to Betsy DeVos-era education policy.
This is a dangerous step backward that will put students at risk and exacerbate the trauma of survivors.
Stop the Republican Rip Off.
Project 2025 told us Trump would try to gut the federal workforce & we'd lose the dedicated civil servants who keep our govt running.
That's exactly what we're seeing now.
If he gets his way, millions will experience delays in services like tax refunds, passport renewals, FAFSA… https://x.com/i/web/status/1885380021214392589

Oh snap get a job
You, Healey, Wu,Warren and Markey need to go the fuck away!
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, do you actually read the comments? Why not revisit all those who receive SNAP, you know there are so many that don’t need it but are getting it, and you do know people sell them for the cash….. why? Would this not be a good idea to look into this? Again I say, how do you sleep at night, you should be ashamed of yourself!
