Since Dobbs, abortion bans have cost folks’ their lives, worsened the Black maternal health crisis & pushed essential care out of reach.
Now Republicans are gutting Medicaid, defunding Planned Parenthood & moving us closer to a nationwide abortion ban.
The cruelty is the point.
Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill is threatening the I-90 project, the most transformational and community-driven project our Commonwealth has seen in generations.
This is disgraceful and it’s a direct assault on the communities who depend on it.
The I-90 project is an opportunity to address decades of harm, reconnect neighborhoods, and build the accessible and safe transit infrastructure that Allston Brighton residents deserve.
We fought hard to deliver these funds and we cannot allow extremist Republicans to rip it away.
Nations are not just governments & regimes—they’re people.
Mothers, sons, loved ones whose stories echo our own.
From Boston to the Middle East, our destinies are tied.
We must press for peace, diplomacy, & our shared humanity.
Heartbroken for everyone impacted by the catastrophic flooding in Texas, including those who’ve lost & are still searching for loved ones.
And I’m grateful for the work of our dedicated first responders.
My team and I stand ready to support any impacted families from the #MA7.
A trailblazing, beloved, & proud daughter of Roxbury, Sarah-Ann Shaw dedicated her life to educating & empowering the City of Boston by unapologetically telling our stories, shattering concrete ceilings & mentoring other Black journalists.
To have known Sarah-Ann was to love her, and I’m grateful for her family, @MayorWu, @BPLBoston, & for those who advocated for this library renaming as a powerful tribute to her mark on our home.
May her legacy be forever honored in Roxbury.
I was a congressional aide for 16 years before being elected to Congress.
And in that time, I learned the importance of creating and taking up space.
I recently joined @CapitolHillCBA and told our dedicated Black Hill staffers: take up space, you all belong everywhere.
I’m one of the 7 million people in America living with alopecia.
In Congress, I’m fighting for bold investments in research, to combat stigma and bullying, and medical coverage to help us along our journey.
Republicans have passed a bill that will be a death sentence —denying millions medical care, denying children food, and violently deporting immigrant families to destabilized countries.
This is unforgivable.
I remain yours in service to every family who calls the Massachusetts 7th home, and I will never stop fighting for you.
