Wishing the Jewish community in my district and across Massachusetts a Happy Hannukah! During this Festival of Lights, my office offers well wishes and happiness during this special time of year, and I’m happy to attend many Menorah lightings this week!

I condemn the antisemitic mass shooting of Jewish Australians as the Sydney community began celebrating Hannukah on Sunday night. I am thinking of Australia and its residents, the Jewish community around the world, and the victims and their loved ones. www.smh.com.au/national/nsw...

A horrific 24 hours for mass shootings across the world, with a press conference live now in Providence, Rhode Island on the shooting at Brown, as Americans are learning the details of the mass shooting on the Jewish community at Bondi Beach in Australia www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/14/m...

I'm deeply saddened to learn of my close friend & colleague Pat Jehlen’s announced retirement. Pat has always been my true north for progressive leadership in the Senate, always fighting for the underdog. Grateful for her vision for Massachusetts! #mapoli www.bostonglobe.com/2025/12/09/m...

President Trump, have you no sense of decency? @gbhnews.bsky.social reports that yesterday, USCIS officials pulled naturalized immigrants from line for their swearing-in ceremony at Faneuil Hall in #Boston as part of DHS expanded travel ban www.wgbh.org/news/local/2... #bospoli #mapoli

Given the tragic events in Washington, D.C., I want to share my thoughts on condemning violence and standing against harmful generalizations about refugees. My full statement below.

2 weeks ago, I condemned President Trump's extra-judicial killings of boats from South American & Caribbean nations, allegedly to stop drugs entering the U.S. Now, Trump is likely to pardon Honduran ex-president Hernandez, who flooded America w/ cocaine. Outrageous! www.nytimes.com/2025/11/29/n...

Happy #Thanksgiving  from Team Eldridge! I’m so grateful for my staff and interns’ amazing work, dedication, perseverance, hard work and commitment to helping constituents, and advocating for public policy that makes a difference in people’s lives. Thank you to my constituents for your support!

I condemn the shooting of 2 National Guardsmen in Washington, DC today. My thoughts go out to the 2 soldiers who are in critical condition & their families, & the entire Guard community. The suspect is in custody, & according to D.C. police it was a targeted shooting. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/11...

Happy #VeteransDay! I am grateful for the proud and brave service of U.S. military servicemen and women, throughout the course of our nation’s history. Liberty, freedom, equality and justice are all made possible due to veterans’ sacrifices and commitment.

Are you ready for #Halloween? The @bostonglobe.com reports how so many Halloween products - candy, costumes, accessories - have increased in cost in 2025, in large part due to the #Trump #tariff increases cause so many consumer products to be more expensive. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/25/b...

Happy #IndigenousPeoplesDay! I’m proud to celebrate the contributions, struggles and lives of Indigenous people in #Massachusetts. I’m proud to cosponsor the Mass Indigenous Legislative Agenda (maindigenousagenda.org) & advocate for Indigenous people in my district. #mapoli

The 3 federal wildlife refuges in my district are now closed due to #governmentshutdown2025. On Saturday in #Maynard, I met w/ Friends of Woodlands & Waters, the advocacy group for the Assabet River, Oxbow & Great Meadows National Wildlife Refuges. Thinking of staff & volunteers

Yesterday as Senate Chair of the #cjreform caucus, I joined Prisoners Legal Services press conference to express serious concerns about @massgovernor.bsky.social’s $360 million proposal to renovate MCI-Framingham prison for incarcerated women. www.metrowestdailynews.com/story/news/l...

This week in #mapoli, we had hearings at the State House start up again. Some highlights: - Climate superfund and nuclear fusion at Environment hearing chaired by Christine Barber and @beccarausch.bsky.social. Quotes from @votesteveowens.bsky.social, @jamieeldridgema.bsky.social, and Bruce Tarr.

It is horrific that Charlie Kirk was shot & killed yesterday in Utah. I’m thinking of his family today. Violence has no place in society. Over the past 2 years, violence directed at political leaders has ramped up, which has a disproportionate impact on democracy www.newyorker.com/newsletter/t...

Disgraceful. Last week, I had the honor of attending a U.S. Naturalization ceremony in Boylston of 50 immigrants being sworn in as citizens. Next to the ceremony was #Worcester @lwvma.bsky.social, ready to register new Americans to vote. But #Trump sees only threats www.wbur.org/npr/nx-s1-55...

They Tried to Sneak Out 600 Kids on a Holiday Weekend The government was loading Guatemalan minors, unaccompanied, some as young as 6-7.

Happy #LaborDay! Beautiful morning in Marlborough, home of the state’s biggest Labor Day parade! Thank you to the labor unions, workers and organizers who fought and continue to fight for fair wages, economic security, good benefits & a safe working environment for all! #mapoli

“Obstruct, obstruct, obstruct.” “I’m really fed up with Democratic leadership.” “I don’t want to see @schumer.senate.gov sending another strongly-worded letter.“ “I want alternate hearings; profiling a person who’s dying because their Medicaid has been stripped away.” Yes! All of this.

85% of ICE detainees at Plymouth Co. jail are classified as "no threat." PLS has documented unacceptable conditions: solitary confinement for mental health crises, ignored medical requests, insufficient food, forced unpaid labor. When will MA stop working with with ICE? www.wbur.org/news/2025/07...

Terrific @LowellSun story on @massgovernor.bsky.social providing $10m to protect naturally-occurring affordable housing in Devenscrest neighborhood of Ayer! It's been a tough, inspiring & worthwhile grassroots battle against powerful real estate interests www.nashobavalleyvoice.com/2025/08/06/d...

Last Friday, masked #ICE agents came to #Acton, arresting a constituent of mine at his work. He has no criminal record & a pending asylum case, but that no longer matters under #DonaldTrump. TY to the brave witnesses. www.wgbh.org/news/local/2... @gbhnews.bsky.social @sweetadelinevt.bsky.social
