Shameful and cowardly.

Trump wants the @USDAGov to stop collecting data on food insecurity because he knows hunger will spike after his Big, Ugly Bill kicks millions of families off food assistance.

Cities and states deserve swift, reliable relief following a terrorist attack.

After the Boston marathon bombing, our community knows that all too well.

That’s why we must reauthorize and strengthen the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act to support businesses & workers reeling from tragedies.

Our women deserve a world of healing—not one of shame, suffering, & pain.

We met with @LupitaNyongo & @MandyMooreMM to discuss why we should be investing in women’s health research, not cutting it.

I voted NO on Trump and Republicans’ spending bill that will make families poorer, sicker & more vulnerable.

We have a healthcare crisis thanks to their Big, Ugly Bill, which ripped away Medicaid from millions & will raise healthcare costs—& this bill does nothing about it.

I won’t be complicit.

The occupant of the White House is coming after our free speech.

He wants to dictate what you can watch, what you can say, & what you can read.

This is a five alarm fire for our First Amendment rights and anyone who cares about our democracy.

Trump’s militarization of DC is not about safety.

It’s about suppressing Black leadership, stopping Black progress & criminalizing Black & brown youth.

If Republicans actually cared about safety, they’d invest in prevention, mental health, & community-based supports that keep people safe. #FreeDC

Trump just inexplicably canceled the $20M grant we secured for the Roxbury Transit Corridor.

This is a critical investment, allocated by Congress, that would improve the daily lives of commuters, enhance climate resilience, & strengthen our communities.

This fight isn’t over & we will push back.

The #MA7 is vibrant, diverse, and full of culture in part thanks to the rich Hispanic & Latinx communities who call it home.

They are community leaders, movement builders, justice seekers, service members, & more — and I’m so proud to represent them in the halls of Congress.

Today, @USHouseFSC held an urgent roundtable to address Trump’s attacks on the Federal Reserve’s independence.

We must rein in Trump’s brazen power grab, including his unlawful attempt to fire Gov. Lisa Cook.
