Here’s the 🍵 on Roe Week: The Hyde Amendment is racist, discriminatory & unjust. It’s why I joined my colleagues to reintroduce the EACH Act to repeal it.

Everyone deserves to access the abortion care they need—period.

It’s time to end the racist & discriminatory Hyde Amendment and ensure EVERYONE can get the abortion they need.

That's why I’m introducing the EACH Act with @RepBarbaraLee, @JanSchakowsky, & @RepDianaDeGette: to repeal Hyde & expand abortion access #4EACHofUS.

The Hyde Amendment has prevented millions from accessing abortion care—especially Black, brown, Indigenous, LGBTQ, & disabled folks.

That's why we're introducing the EACH Act: to repeal Hyde & expand abortion access #4EACHofUS.

We must affirm abortion care as a human right.

That’s why we must invest & partner with organizations like @WestEndHouse to meet the needs of our youth, advance healing & build stronger communities.

Let educators be educators.

Not social workers.
Not psychotherapists.
Not nurses.

The best way to support our students is by supporting our educators.

Education is critical to the work of Black liberation.

I was honored to join @MassLtGov & educators at Boston's #MLKDay Breakfast to discuss how we can advance policies that center the humanity of our students, families and educators.

Martin Luther King Jr. was a man before he was a martyr.

A beloved father and husband. A revolutionary dreamer & believer in the power of radical love.

As we reflect on his life and legacy, let's not forget his humanity.
