IT'S OFFICIAL: The House has passed our extension of TPS for Haiti. This win wouldn't be possible without the strength & organizing of our movement to defend our Haitian neighbors. To those in the #MA7 & beyond, this is for you. The Senate must pick this up without delay.

Republicans made people hungrier & sicker by kicking them off their food assistance & healthcare. And now, Speaker Johnson has said the quiet part out loud: they're coming after Social Security. They want our families worse off while doing nothing to address affordability.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Donald Trump's failed policies hurt our economy. He is attacking everything & everyone except the affordability crisis. And the recent inflation surge is proof of that.

Republicans are complicit in the abuse, negligence, & trauma of our children. Like Susej, a young girl who was caged at Dilley & left burdened with trauma that was never hers to carry. That is the human cost of Republicans’ harmful policy choices & why we must close Dilley.

Teenagers, toddlers, & babies have been abducted & taken to Dilley. And Republican & their private prison corporation friends are profiting from the pain of child abuse, child neglect, & childhood trauma. We must close Dilley & end this state-inflicted trauma.

SHAMEFUL: Republicans in Congress just passed $70 BILLION DOLLARS for ICE to continue its campaign of terror with no accountability or reforms. I voted no & my stance remains the same. Abolish ICE. Reunite families. End qualified immunity. Close the inhumane detention camps.

Our immigrant neighbors bring beauty, joy, & strength to our communities. This National Immigrant Heritage Month, I’m honoring the rich cultures, sweat equity, & contributions of our immigrant families. And I’ll continue fighting for their rights—because their home is here.

61 years ago, Griswold v. Connecticut made clear that accessing birth control was essential and the law of the land. That's why as @ReproCaucus Co-Chair, I'm fighting Republicans' attacks on our bodily autonomy & affirming reproductive health care as the human right that it is.

Full investigations for each loved one killed by ICE agents or their negligence while in custody is the bare minimum. But ICE is trying to end their death reporting policy to cover their tracks. Our DHS Use of Force Transparency Act will bring accountability to families whose

US Immigration and Customs Enforcement is ending its policy of reporting deaths of recently released detainees, the Department of Homeland Security said – a policy change that comes amid increasing scrutiny over the deaths of immigrants in federal custody. cnn.com/2026/06/05/us/…

20-year-old Sama Safi is a U.S. citizen, honor student, & beloved by everyone who knows her. Two days ago, IDF soldiers raided her home, terrorized her family, & detained her without charges. The US must secure her release & demand accountability from the Israeli government.

Yesterday, the IDF seized 4 students from their homes in the West Bank, including 20-year-old American, Sama Safi. The Israeli govt didn’t tell her family or the U.S. Embassy where or why she was being taken & is holding her without charges. America must secure her release NOW.

Dictators try to shutter museums, censor history, and whitewash the truth. But we know the truth. And we won’t allow Donald Trump to continue his campaign of censorship anywhere in Massachusetts—including at the Bunker Hill Monument in the #MA7.
