It was great to welcome Haitian Prime Minister Alix Didier Fils-Aim & Ambassador Lionel Delatour to Boston. I’m proud to co-chair the Haiti Caucus & advocate for our neighbors. We have a moral obligation to support Haiti’s stabilization & save lives.

The story of our nation is incomplete without the ongoing work of liberation. This Freedom Day, let us honor our ancestors through joy, action, organizing, and reparative policies that bring us closer to freedom. Happy Juneteenth, family!

It was great to be back in Cambridge to celebrate the $1M we secured to establish the Cambridge Community Center as New England’s first Resilience Hub. This hub will support our neighbors and Cambridge’s broader goals of climate resilience & emergency preparedness.

Since my discharge petition to extend Temporary Protected Status for Haitians successfully passed the House, we’ve been pressing hard to advance this fight. We're ready to double down in the Senate and defend the safety, dignity, & humanity of Haitian neighbors once & for all.

BREAKING: I'm introducing my FAST Repairs for Wheelchairs Act. This legislation would streamline wheelchair repair services by removing prior authorization requirements from Medicare Advantage plans. Our wheelchair users should not have to wait months for minor repairs.

A ceasefire is necessary & overdue. Trump has supported Netanyahu’s barbaric warfare at the expense of communities at home & abroad—and we’ve been pressing hard to stop this war. It’s essential this ceasefire holds & brings meaningful peace to the region.

Just your reminder that while Donald Trump does his vanity projects at the White House to appease his billionaire donors, he has done absolutely nothing to address the affordability crisis.

If this nation is serious about the next 250 years, it must prove it. That proof begins with Congress helping build a future grounded not in denial, but in repair. Our Reparative Justice Agenda is a reminder that reparations are not a charity. They are a debt long overdue.

In the face of authoritarianism & fascism, we cannot be complacent. We must be vigilant & proactive, because everyone has a role to play. Grateful to spend the day celebrating Black freedom at the Hyde Park Juneteenth Joy Celebration.

I'm proud to represent the third largest Haitian diaspora in the country. It's great to have the Haiti National Football Team in Massachusetts and in the FIFA World Cup. Best of luck to them on the field today as they return to the World Cup after 52 years.

🚨This harrowing reporting should alarm everyone. Donald Trump changed the Situation Room to the Epstein War Room to have his Administration continue their cover-up. But we won't stop until survivors get the transparency & accountability they're owed.

Our foster youth are brilliant, resilient, & end up doing incredible things. Like Eric whose work now focuses on family preservation, early intervention, & stronger support for youth in foster care. Eric, thank you for the work you do and for meeting with me in Washington.

Every reader should have access to books that reflect diverse lived experiences. Grateful the Mass. State House has taken action to fight back discriminatory book bans in our libraries & honor the brilliance of our authors & illustrators. TY Rep. John Moran for your leadership on this.

As we approach America’s 250th anniversary, the next 250 years cannot look like the last. The next 250 years must be about repair. That’s why we’re calling on Congress to meet this moment with the urgency it demands & advance our Reparative Justice Agenda without delay.

Six decades of progress for birth control rights and access, yet the right to contraception is still not signed into law. The House passed this critical bill in 2022, and House Democrats are demanding we pass it again. Republican colleagues: join us and stand with the people. (1/2)

The inequities we face today are not accidental. They are direct results of this nation’s systems designed to exclude, exploit, & harm communities. That’s why I’m joining advocates to call on Congress to help build a future grounded in repair. Tune in: youtube.com/live/7pFSmUo...

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.

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 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.bsky.social Co-Chair, I'm fighting Republicans' attacks on our bodily autonomy & affirming reproductive health care as the human right that it is.

Proud to represent one of the most diverse Caribbean constituencies in the US & lead policies to support our Caribbean American communities, like defending Haiti TPS. This Caribbean American Heritage Month, we celebrate our Caribbean American neighbors who call the #MA7 home.

Adrian lives with spinal muscular atrophy, a rare medical condition that requires specific treatment & care. But thanks to Boston Children’s Hospital, he’s receiving the exceptional, compassionate care he deserves that supports his immediate needs & long-term care.

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.

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.

Accountability for fraud must also include restorative justice to make the lives of victims whole again. But Trump used his clemency power on Lawrence Duran and wiped away $87 million in restitution for victims of healthcare fraud. We should be having a hearing about that.

BREAKING: We passed an Iran War Powers Resolution in the House to rein in Trump and end his unauthorized, reckless war. The Senate must immediately follow suit and act to end this war.

Over 3,000 innocent people have been killed in Lebanon by the Israeli military & over a million displaced. We are talking about children, elders, & loved ones. I urge my colleagues to support Rep. Rashida Tlaib's War Powers Resolution on the floor this week & act to end this war now.

Trump realized he can’t get away with rewarding white supremacists who attack our democracy. If our government wants to create a reparations fund, it should begin with Black folks harmed by the trauma & inequities caused by the original sins of this nation.

For 24 years, Robert Kilduff Jr. served the Boston Fire Department. Bobby was a Marine veteran, a proud third generation fire fighter, and a beloved partner & father. I extend my deepest condolences to his loved ones & the Boston Firefighters Local 718 family.

Transgender servicemembers should be allowed to serve with dignity and respect. Their contributions and sacrifices keep everyone at home safe. Trump & Hegseth's ban is unconstitutional and discriminatory—and it must be reversed immediately.

To our LGBTQ+ siblings in the #MA7 & across the country: Happy Pride Month. This Congresswoman sees you, loves you, & celebrates you. And I'll always fight to ensure everyone can show up in the world as their full authentic selves.

From Tulsa to Boston, our legacies move through us. As we mark the 105th commemoration of the Tulsa Race Massacre, we honor the Black lives stolen in Tulsa and carry the mantle left by Mother Viola Ford Fletcher, Hughes Van Ellis, and others who led calls for essential reparative justice.

This Mental Health Awareness Month, we need to continue breaking stigmas & barriers that restrict access to care. Because invisible scars don't just heal on their own. That's why I keep fighting for policies that make mental health care more accessible & affordable.

Voting by mail is safe, secure, & constitutional. Even Donald Trump votes by mail. Yet, he wants to disenfranchise millions who vote by mail because the American people overwhelmingly reject his failed policies. And he can't win without cheating every step of the way.

I stand with the fathers, mothers, & loved ones behind the wall at Delaney Hall holding a hunger strike to protest ICE's abuse. They’re suffering from inhumane conditions, delayed medical care & fear of retaliation. Shut down abusive ICE facilities like Delaney Hall. Abolish ICE. Reunite families.

Exactly. Not only is Trump’s slush fund unlawful, it’s a downright denial of reparative justice for those who deserve it. Trump would sooner reward white supremacists who attacked our democracy than Black folks plagued by the inequities perpetuated by slavery & discrimination.

Pam Bondi obstructed the release of the Epstein files, violated the law, & denied transparency to the public and survivors. The cover up continued today with Bondi’s closed-door deposition because this White House is afraid of the truth coming out. All to protect Donald Trump, not survivors.

Donald Trump wants every federal worker to sign an NDA. Because he knows his Administration is breaking the law repeatedly & he’s afraid of whistleblowers telling the American people the truth. To our whistleblowers: don’t forget you’re protected under federal law.

Detainees are facing a public health crisis behind detention walls and this surge of suicides should alarm everybody. There is no reforming this. We must abolish ICE.

Eid Mubarak to our Muslim neighbors in the #MA7 and across the country. May this Eid al-Adha be a joyous celebration with loved ones that bring reflection, peace, and compassion.

This cruel and unnecessary change is designed to uproot students, workers, and families who contribute to our communities and have waited years for their green card. Trump’s USCIS is trying to destroy pathways to legal immigration—but we will continue to fight back.

Trump and Republicans want to take America back to pre-Reconstruction. They want to silence Black votes, restrict our fundamental freedoms, and dilute our representation. But we’ll continue to organize, mobilize, fight, and vote for our full rights and citizenship.

Donald Trump's reckless economic policies and targeting of Black workers are crushing Black America. And the harm is coming for everyone. Congress must advance policies that protect civil rights, expand opportunities for all, and make the economy work for everyone in America.

Felicidades to Vanessa & Inquilinos Boricuas en Acción on the official opening of La CASA. This is now the largest Latino cultural center in New England, and it gets to call the #MA7 home. It was a joy to tour the facility and meet the staff alongside @ocasio-cortez.house.gov.

Memorial Day is a day of reflection and remembrance for those who never returned home. To our fallen servicemembers, Gold Star families, and veterans from the #MA7: our hearts are with you and your sacrifices will never be forgotten.

Control of the Women's History Museum belongs to the women who built this country — NOT Donald Trump and his political allies. We'll keep fighting to honor women's history and pass legislation to establish this museum without any harmful Republican amendments.
