​​"I cannot express my gratitude enough for the exceptional assistance and unwavering support I received from the office of US Representative Ayanna Pressley. My newborn daughter`s passport application had been stuck in limbo for months, and despite my best efforts, I couldn`t make any headway with the Department of State. As our planned international travel date drew near, my concerns grew, and my daughter`s future plans hung in the balance.

In a moment of desperation, I reached out to Representative Pressley`s office, hoping for some guidance. To my astonishment and immense relief, they not only listened but took swift action to intervene on my behalf. Within just a matter of weeks, a situation that had seemed insurmountable for months was resolved, and my daughter`s passport was in hand.

My heartfelt thanks to US Representative Ayanna Pressley and her team for their remarkable, compassionate, and professional assistance. They demonstrated that public service can truly make a meaningful difference in the lives of constituents. I am immensely grateful for their support.”

– Furkan, from Somerville.

We need the U.S. Department of Treasury to closely review Saudi Arabia’s investments in U.S. companies, including the PGA-LIV Golf merger.

A regime that has murdered journalists, killed migrants, and jailed dissidents should not have a free license for “sportswashing.”

Nathaniel from East Boston had a family emergency abroad during the COVID-19 pandemic that required him to travel on short notice and renew his passport. However, due to issues with the spelling of his name, Nathaniel’s passport renewal required extra paperwork and could take longer than usual to process.
 
“Congresswoman Pressley’s team helped me process this emergency in a week [at] most. From submitting the passport with all documents up to when it arrived to my home.”
