The greatest wealth of our Commonwealth is the health of our communities.
I joined @HHSGov and local health leaders to discuss the #LongCOVID crisis, vaccine equity, and how we can support our #LongHaulers still feeling the impact of the pandemic.

Our Latinx small businesses are vital to the economic stability & vitality of our communities.
We celebrated the $400K in federal investments I secured for @AmplifyLatinx to support bilingual, culturally relevant & intensive business coaching to Latinx micro-businesses in the #MA7.

@RepBowman is a champion for students, a lifelong educator, a duly elected member of Congress, & a strong Black man.
This censure is just the latest in this chamber’s shameful history of telling Black and brown folks they don’t belong in Congress.

Too often, citizens behind the wall & those with a record—especially Black folks—are denied the right to vote & participate in our elections.
With democracy under attack, @SenPeterWelch and I are introducing a bill to end felony disenfranchisement.

We`re all God`s children, and we grieve the loss of every life—regardless of faith or country of origin.
I stood with my colleagues to honor the 15,000+ Palestinians & 1,200 Israelis killed in Gaza & Israel.
Our destinies are tied & we can`t lose sight of our shared humanity.

The bombing in Gaza has resumed & Palestinians are again being indiscriminately killed by Israeli forces.
The pause was a testament to the power of diplomacy: hostages released, aid delivered, & lives saved.
We need a permanent #CeasefireNow.

My mother never read me fairy tales—she read me the words of Shirley Chisholm.
Shirley wanted to be remembered as a Black woman who lived in the 20th century & dared to be herself.
On her 99th birthday, we honor Shirley by leading, legislating & taking up space—just like she taught us.

High wait times, false information, egregiously wrong billing amounts, and so much more.
As we fight to #CancelStudentDebt, we must hold student loan servicers accountable for their incompetence.
That’s why the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau’s work is more critical than ever before.

Excited for my dear friend & Massachusetts colleague @RepLoriTrahan to serve as Co-Chair of @HouseDPCC.
She leads with kindness & is an exemplary leader, effective messenger, & coalition builder.
I was proud to support her candidacy & can think of no one better for the role.
