Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 10hTrump & the WWE Secretary have taken a sledgehammer to the Ed Dept. And our student loan borrowers are paying the consequences.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 09/10/2026Trump is trying to legitimize his unlawful, anti-Black smear campaign against Governor Lisa Cook. But we see this is for what it is. Trump must take his grubby little hands off the Federal Reserve and stop this brazen power grab. 829783
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 09/10/2026A 5-year-old watched as ICE agents terrorized and shot his father.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 09/10/2026This is horrifying and barbaric. We should not be executing ANYONE in America. Not by firing squad. And certainly not publicly.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 08/10/2026Nurses are the backbone of our healthcare system and deserve fair contracts that reflect that standard of care.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 07/10/2026Our Black entrepreneurs are pillars of our communities. And it was a joy to see their work up close at BECMA's Mass Black Expo this year.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 06/10/2026Abortion restrictions are harmful policy and deeply unpopular, and Republicans know it. As Co-Chair of the @reprocaucus.bsky.social, I'll always fight to protect and expand abortion access like the human right that it is. 28225
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 06/10/2026The USPS is a lifeline for #MA7 residents for everything from daily meds, Social Security checks, mail-in ballots, & staying connected to loved ones.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 05/10/2026Trump's reckless policies & unconstitutional war in Iran have skyrocketed energy costs for families. That's why I'm glad @massgovernor.bsky.social is stepping up to lower energy costs here in Massachusetts. While Republicans refuse, we're doing everything we can to lighten folks' load. 15615
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 05/10/2026The USPS’ plans to permanently close the post office in Allston is unacceptable.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 05/10/2026I refuse to live in a world where sexual assault is a normalized part of being a woman or girl. This should NEVER be acceptable and we must always demand accountability—for Jane Doe survivors everywhere. 016138
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 04/10/2026Facial recognition technology is biased and disproportionately targets Black & brown folks. And now agencies like ICE & DOJ are weaponizing it to spy, track, and kidnap U.S. citizens. 817453
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 03/10/2026Shameful. USPS' closure of the Allston office was also "temporary" and now they want to close it permanently. We can't let USPS continue to degrade services and leave folks in Fields Corner and across the #MA7 without this vital resource. They must keep this branch open.dotnews.comUSPS says Fields Corner branch will 'temporarily' close Oct. 26 - Dorchester ReporterThe Fields Corner Post Office will close effective Mon., Oct. 26, according to a notice issued by USPS on Wednesday. 11345112
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 03/10/2026The Cornell case is heartbreaking and unacceptable. R*pe culture in America is real. And we need a systemic overhaul of our norms and legal system—from the government to the personal level—to end it once and for all. 215251
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 02/10/2026The state of our economy is failing Black workers, families, & futures—and this is a damning reminder of that. We need federal action to address this crisis. Sec. Scott Bessent must release the report on the impact of Black unemployment. And the Fed must do its job to maximize employment for all. 429799
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 02/10/2026Having alopecia, I know the impact of severe hair loss. For some, wigs bring physical & emotional support.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 01/10/2026🚨Trump & Republicans' shameful cuts to food assistance are taking effect TODAY. That means states now have less resources to feed families facing food insecurity. In MA, over 188,000 SNAP beneficiaries have already been impacted. I'll keep fighting to expand SNAP & end hunger once and for all. 213660
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 01/10/2026Christa Pike's botched execution is a horrifying reminder of the cruelty & inhumanity of the death penalty. State-sanctioned killing is barbaric and it's time we end this unjust punishment once & for all. 2342495
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 30/09/2026We'll never have justice for Nolan Wells, for in a just world he'd still be alive. But there must be accountability.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 30/09/2026Today marks 50 years of the Hyde amendment. 50 years of harm, injustice, & politicians obstructing our bodily autonomy. 213325
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 30/09/2026Every student deserves to go to school without facing harassment or discrimination.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 29/09/2026Clawing back a $300K federal grant to MIRA Coalition is cruel & unjust. MIRA is a trusted partner in Massachusetts and this grant supported essential work to support neighbors applying for US citizenship. Congress has the power of the purse—not Vought—these funds should be immediately reinstated. 54619
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 28/09/2026Trump & Secretary Duffy have no right to steal federal transit funding from Roxbury, which we fought hard to secure.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 27/09/2026Medical needs. Lost income. Mental health support. Housing.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 27/09/2026Hands off our press. Hands off our bodies. Hands off our museums. Hands off our healthcare. Hands off our democracy. Hands off our immigrant neighbors. Donald Trump is attacking everyone & everything EXCEPT the cost of living. 821857
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 26/09/2026It's so good to join the National Alopecia Areata Foundation for their annual Walk for Alopecia.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 25/09/2026The cruelty is undeniable here. Miscarriages can be devastating & they require medical care. Pregnant women shouldn’t be unjustly detained & warehoused in the first place. And now, ICE is refusing to collect data on miscarriages in custody. Horrifying, shameful, & completely unacceptable. 710042
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 25/09/2026Cycling is a climate, transit, and public safety issue. I convened a roundtable with advocates to discuss how we can make our communities safer and more accessible for pedestrians, cyclist, & commuters across the #MA7. 18720
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 25/09/2026Hey Secretary Scott Bessent, you told the American people under oath to “watch this space” after President Xi’s visit. Are baby products going to be exempt from Trump’s reckless tariffs—yes or no? 17222

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 25/09/2026America has a long history of using lynching as a tool to kill, intimidate, & keep Black folks in their place. The hangings of Black folks across the country deserve extra scrutiny. The DOJ & FBI must investigate these suspicious deaths & enforce the Emmett Till Antilynching Act. 713252
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 24/09/2026Good. These media outlets should never have been banned from the White House in the first place. And it shouldn't take a court order to force Trump to stop attacking the freedom of the press. 35113
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 24/09/2026Deeply alarmed by the ICE raids in New Bedford and the South Coast.

We must abolish ICE and stop this campaign of cruelty and terror. 1019990
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 23/09/2026Trump and Republicans created a healthcare crisis in America and now they want to kick 750,000 MORE people off of their health insurance. The cruelty is truly the point. 116121
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 23/09/2026For months, I've called for baby products to be exempt from Trump's tariffs. Secretary Scott Bessent has repeatedly told me they're under consideration, and last week told me to "watch this space" after Xi's visit. Well, we're watching. Families deserve more than lip service. 46814
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 23/09/2026For Epstein survivors & all survivors of sexual violence, accountability must include restitution.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 22/09/2026Black folks are being pushed out of the workforce & unemployment rates are at their highest since the pandemic.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 22/09/2026He attacks the freedom of the press, kicks media outlets of the White House, and now he's launching state-run propaganda TV. This is what dictators do and NONE of this is normal. 411140
Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley @pressley.house.gov · 21/09/2026Congress can't stand by while AI and billionaires threaten humankind, gamble with our lives, and exploit Black, brown, and other marginalized communities.
