Pressley Statement on Passage of Respect for Marriage Act

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.
Republicans are choosing homophobia over housing & cruelty over compassion.

They stripped federal funding for The Pryde, an affordable housing project for LGBTQ seniors in the #MA7.

But I’ll never stop fighting for our LGBTQ siblings & to get this funding over the finish line.
This Thanksgiving, I'm holding space for the tragedies abroad & the hardship here at home.

From Massachusetts to the Middle East, let's be grateful for the privileges we have while remembering & supporting those in need.

Another world is possible, if only we work for it.
