Americans don’t want a surveillance state—and they sure as hell don’t want Big Tech using AI to track our every move & sell our data to the highest bidder. This technology threatens our privacy rights & is ripe for abuse by the government & Big Tech oligarchs. It must be stopped.

Good to know Republicans think the soaring cost of gas, groceries, housing, and healthcare is just a “little thing.”

Manufacturing is central to our economy & our future. Great to join vocational students at EMUGE-FRANKEN in West Boylston to see advanced manufacturing up close, experience the power of American-built products, and explore the good careers it can create for the next generation!

I never thought I’d see the U.S. government try to whitewash Richard Nixon’s crimes & defend his profound abuse of the presidency. But here we are. Crooks protecting crooks.

So he doesn’t want a data center next to his house, but he’s fine dropping one in your backyard and jacking up your utility bills. Typical.

Donald Trump’s name won’t even be on a Kennedy Center bathroom. When Democrats retake Congress, we’ll put an end to his taxpayer-funded vanity projects, stop his reckless war of choice in Iran, crack down on corruption, and fight for an affordable America.

There’s a lot of talk about what will be in the Rules package when Democrats retake Congress. One thing I can say for sure: we won’t be banning reporters from the Speaker’s Lobby, as some of my Republican colleagues have suggested…

A failed, elitist president, alienated from the world and surrounded by his taxpayer-funded vanity projects as the country crumbles around him. Pathetic.

Our schools should be safe, inclusive spaces for young people of all backgrounds & identities to learn & grow. That’s why I’m inspired by the students & staff at Worcester Public Schools, whose new Stand Against Racism Campaign reminds us that we are stronger when we take a stand against hate.

Instead of talking about affordability they’re spending millions of your tax dollars to fund pro-MAGA campaign ads. A new level of fascist propaganda from the most corrupt administration of all time. Clearly he is terrified of losing.

A Trump 2024 Campaign Ad Returns, Now Brought to You by the Government
The ad, which ethics experts said could violate federal law, shows Mr. Trump vowing to “expel the warmongers” from the government and fight the “deep state,” even as he wages a war with Iran.

Trump cuts healthcare for millions of Americans. Healthcare costs skyrocket. Trump slaps tariffs on basically everything—including food. Grocery prices go up. Trump starts ANOTHER war in the oil-rich Middle East. Gas prices go up. See the pattern?

Rep. Jim McGovern @repmcgovern.bsky.social · 30/09/2026
Republicans only worked 72 DAYS in 2026 & they haven’t done a damn thing. Nothing to rein in costs. Nothing to overturn Trump’s tariffs. Nothing to stop his war of choice. What they’ve been doing already is running the laziest & least effective Congress in history.

Gas in Worcester is $4.60/ gallon and the president who says affordability is a hoax is letting his Deputy Chief of Staff do this with your tax dollars.

Today is the 49th birthday of Ruth López. Instead of celebrating with her family, she sits in a Salvadoran jail, put there by the Bukele regime’s crackdown on human rights defenders. I reiterate my call for her immediate release and medical care. #LibertadParaRuth #JuicioPúblicoParaRuth

Cancer touches us all. It doesn’t care how you vote—and the fight to prevent it and catch it early is one that brings us together across party lines.

American journalists are being excluded from the White House by our own government, which then rolled out the red carpet for Chinese state-run media. Of course, not a peep from the Republicans who pretend to care about human rights. Cowards. Trump and MAGA 🤝 Xi and the CCP.

Min Zin is an American citizen who was invited to an academic conference in China and then unjustly thrown in jail. I stand with his wife Sylvia & brother Aung Maw in calling on Trump to demand that President Xi release Min so he can be reunited with his family.

You can’t be healthy if you’re hungry—and that’s why my Medically Tailored Meals bill is a BIG STEP towards lowering healthcare costs, improving folks’ health, and ending hunger in America. Thank you @repdexteror.bsky.social for fighting with me to push this across the finish line!

Donald Trump is rolling out the red carpet for President Xi—a notorious human rights abuser with a long history of repression. Our message to President Trump is clear: No Xi in DC without human rights ON THE AGENDA!

Donald Trump disgraces our country & those who created the UN after the devastation of WWII by promising an invasion of a sovereign nation, in clear violation of the UN charter. America should be the world leader in spreading peace & diplomacy, not unprovoked wars of choice.

Humbled to receive Veterans Inc.’s Spirit of Service Award, recognizing the $430K in federal funding I secured for medically supervised detox services for veterans and their families. Grateful for the honor—and even more grateful for the work Veterans Inc. does every day.

Republicans are the party of record-high grocery prices, reckless wars, soaring gas prices, and sky-high healthcare costs. Democrats are fighting for an affordable America & big change in Washington.

Republicans passed legislation that requires people to work at least 80 hours per month to receive Medicaid. Over the past two months, Republican leadership worked, on average, for only 56 hours. They wouldn't even meet the work requirements they forced on working families.

The corporate food industry is lobbying Congress to make food safety rules weaker, stop us from banning PFAS & carcinogens in school meals, and push out independent science. To make America healthy again, we must all fight to get toxic chemicals out of our air, water, and food.
