VIDEO: Pressley Challenges Republicans to Oppose Devastating SNAP Cuts, Met With Silence
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.

Republicans claim to be the party of God, but I can’t find a psalm that says “Thou shalt make people poorer, hungrier, and sicker.”
And that’s exactly what their Big, Ugly Bill would do.
We’ll continue to resist, obstruct, and use every tool to stop it in its tracks.
Trump and Republicans’ Big, Ugly Bill would harm everyone in America, and Massachusetts is no exception.
Here are a few reasons why we’re fighting so hard to stop it.
