If Republicans win the House of Representatives and the Senate in the 2026 Midterm Elections, I'm going to give all adult citizens in the United States of America, $5,000! Thank you for your attention to this matter, and I look forward to signing those checks!

Ending fuel emission standards when gas prices are sky high is a super way to show you don't understand how painful filling up is for regular people. This is a big "screw you" from the admin that keeps screwing us.

Other countries ensure every resident has access to health care. In the US, a VP - whose own mom was on Medicaid before buying a plan on the ACA - spends his days figuring out how to kick people off plans that they pay for. Cue the inevitable stories of people improperly losing coverage...

Because we're Massholes, not assholes Virtually the entire state voted for trans rights back in 2018 - with a 2:1 margin state-wide. Only 6 out of 351 cities and towns voted against trans rights, and by slim margins.

A Groundbreaking U.N. Resolution Calls Forced Pregnancy What It Is: Reproductive Violence

This week, we took up a bill that I filed with Rep. Christine Barber to remove arbitrary limits on abortion care. Pregnancy is complex and no two situations are alike. The law has to take all situations into account and the best way to do that is to leave the choice to a patient and their doctor.

Decisions about pregnancy belong between patients and their doctors. Thank you to members of the House that voted to pass this bill expanding access to abortion later in pregnancy, Christine Barber, @sabadosama.bsky.social, Marjorie Decker, Aaron Michlewitz, and Mike Day for your leadership!

Massachusetts has an opportunity to lead by preventing surveillance pricing in grocery stores: the practice of using personal data to charge different customers different prices for the same item. I'm glad to be leading on this bill and to share this important article.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

A report on the ground from the ICE shooting in Biddeford that should make every parent in this country lose their minds:
Cecelia Humiston, 22, lives on Chapel Street. She was asleep with her two-year-old son when she woke up to the sounds of a commotion on surrounding streets.

When she went to investigate, she saw what appeared to be a person lying on the ground on Pool Street.

She remembers hearing an older woman with a distressed family, yelling, “You took her dad, you took her dad!”

“They were with a little girl, she couldn't have been older than three,” Humiston said. “She was still in her Bluey pajamas.”

Humiston described law enforcement as “rude,” and said they barricaded family’s car from leaving. Another yelled at the little girl, who was trying to smell flowers.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

Patients deserve accurate information about their health care. If the person giving you an ultrasound has no idea what they are doing, the state should *of course* be able to tell you that.

Super curious what justification there would be to having ICE at the polls other than obvious voter intimidation? But when "Kavanaugh stops" are allowed, this is a clear effort to keep people of color home. I would say I hope this keeps the Justices up at night, but this is exactly what he wanted.

A constituent stopped by my district office today and, as he was leaving, said, “I love how budget conscious you are around here.” Not entirely sure whether it was a compliment or a gentle jab at my thrifted decor and shared workspace. I am choosing to take it as the former. 🤷‍♀️

Every single person who writes "If they had just done things the right way..." or "My family came here legally in [insert date a century or more ago]" should read this. This has nothing to do with immigrants, and everything to do with removing anyone who isn't white.

It is only "strong" as it beat abysmal predictions. It is still a box office loser, & Amazon is still laying off employees as its billionaire owner tries to further line his pockets. Also, ICE tear gassed more protesters, including kids, today & Melania could care less. Who cares about her?

Amazon has cut a combined 28,000 jobs since October. Its CEO made $40M+ in 2024 UPS has announced 78,000 job cuts since last year. Its CEO made $24M. HP announced up to 6,000 layoffs in November. Its CEO made $21M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

One of my favorite things about listening to Italians yell about ICE coming to Italy is that they use the article + name when they talk about them. That means, they are calling ICE "lice" every time and... I have to say it works in both languages.

Liam and so many kids like him are in detention, and a bunch of right-wing accounts are trying to blame his parents, his school, even him. If you are okay with a five year old in detention, it might be time to question your "family values" and "prolife" stance.

Dear Mr. Bovino, If you would like us to not call you gestapo & not use words like kidnapping, stop behaving like the gestapo & kidnapping people. Maybe also stop murdering people in the streets. It is, after all, a choice, & there are actions & consequences. Thank you for attention to this matter.

Accountability is not doxing. So we now know that the government is hiding a murderer and impeding an investigation. They have also sent said murderer to some other state where he can likely kill more people. Bovino, Noem, & Chump all have blood on their hands.
