People should be allowed to sue ICE agents for violating their rights & killing their loved ones.   That means closing the loophole that prevents federal officials from being sued & ending qualified immunity to hold federal agents accountable.

It's been nine months since Secretary Scott Bessent told me the Administration will consider exempting baby products from Trump's tariffs. But nothing has changed. While they've been "thinking about it," working families are paying more. Unacceptable.

Last night, a federal judge temporarily blocked the Trump Administration’s cruel attempt to terminate Temporary Protected Status for Haitians. I joined @pressley.house.gov to file a discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haitians because temporary relief isn’t enough.

Terminating TPS for Haiti would be devastating to the 350,000+ Haitian nationals in the US—many of whom reside in the #MA7. That’s why I’ve filed a discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haitians. Our colleagues must sign on & join us in defending our Haitian communities.

In the same way that masked cowardly militia played the role of judge, jury, & executioner, terrorizing Black communities — that terror is now coming everywhere in the form of ICE. This rogue agency must be abolished & we must end qualified immunity to hold agents accountable.

That’s right. It’s inhumane & unlawful to deport people to a country in political, economic, & humanitarian crises. This is a vital step towards defending Haitian families & we’ll keep fighting for lasting protections. To our Haitian neighbors—your contributions are valued & you have a home here.

Extending TPS for Haiti isn't just the moral, humanitarian thing to do—it is also good policy. With TPS expiring tomorrow, I'm fighting hard to protect our Haitian siblings and ensure they can continue their essential work and contributions to our communities.

The people closest to the pain should be closest to the power, driving & informing our policymaking. But for too long, big money has polluted our politics. Proud to receive an A+ on Stop Big Money’s Anti-Corruption scorecard because I haven’t lost the plot—& the plot is the people.

Deeply relieved Liam and his dad are back home in Minnesota. This kidnapping by ICE was egregious and should never have happened. Thank you @joaquincastrotx.bsky.social and @repilhan.bsky.social for your leadership.

We will NOT let this anti-Black administration take away our joy. Happy Black History Month!

Trump's gutting of agencies doesn't just harm dedicated federal workers like my constituent Claire, who enforced fair housing laws at HUD. It harms the communities and the people they deserve, and it prevents agencies from fulfilling their mission.

Trump's DOJ is lying & violating the law. They claim they released the Epstein files, but there are 3 millions pages missing. They don't care about accountability or survivors—only about protecting pedophiles like Donald Trump. Release ALL the files.

My heart aches for Minnesota & communities across the country reeling from horrific ICE attacks. Their pain is raw, and it is real. But their resolve is even stronger. Neighbors organizing their blocks, protecting families at school drop off, leading mutual aid drives.

Such a joy to be back with @repilhan.bsky.social in the #MN05 to meet with organizers & community members impacted by ICE's horrific violence. We’ve heard from folks about the trauma & fear they're experiencing. And yet, Minnesotans are holding the line & showing up for one another.

From Massachusetts to Minnesota, the people demand accountability. Abolish ICE. Impeach Kristi Noem. End qualified immunity. Cut off funding for DHS. Congress cannot keep sponsoring this campaign of cruelty.

My heart is heavy after visiting Alex Pretti’s memorial site in Minneapolis. He was a beloved son and community member who spent his days caring for our veterans. We'll never have true justice for Alex—justice would be him alive today. But there must be accountability.

Communities in Minnesota are living in fear due to the violence and brutality perpetrated by ICE. I'm in Minneapolis with @repilhan.bsky.social to meet with families, organizers and community organizations impacted by Trump's cruel mass deportation agenda. Follow along.

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we grieve the murder of millions of Jews & marginalized people. May their memory be a blessing and a reminder that hatred has no place in our world. Today, we reaffirm our shared humanity and fight to root out antisemitism & bigotry.

There's no ICE accountability without ending qualified immunity. They're murdering people. There won't be justice for the lives they've stolen, but there must be accountability. My bill with @markey.senate.gov would ensure families can sue the agents murdering their loved ones.

Alex Pretti was a beloved son and Minneapolis community member. He loved the outdoors and dedicated his days to taking care of our veterans as an ICU nurse at the VA. While protecting a fellow community member, he was violently executed in broad daylight by a group of masked federal agents.

What we're experiencing in Massachusetts is not a hunger crisis by accident. It's the result of Trump and Republicans' cruel cuts to SNAP and food assistance programs. Proud to join @repmcgovern.bsky.social’s #EndHungerNow tour to support our local grocers & discuss how we can fight back.

A reminder that Pam Bondi's deadline to release ALL the Epstein files was over a month ago. She's defying Congress and violating federal law by withholding millions of documents. She must release the files NOW and deliver the accountability and transparency survivors deserve.

🚨 #MA7: With heavy snowfall & extreme weather these next few days, please take every measure to stay safe. If you're able: stay indoors, look out for your neighbors, drive safely, & call 911 for any emergency. For additional safety tips, visit Mass.gov/Snow.

Another person was killed in ICE custody—adding to the highest death toll since the agency was created. There's no reforming this. We must abolish ICE, end qualified immunity for ICE agents, and ensure accountability.

This is horrifying. It appears that ICE executed a man on the street. This violent agency must be abolished and every agent involved in this murder must be held accountable.

2.5 million children are being raised by grandparents or kin, including over 100k in MA. My Grandfamily Housing Act with @repmcgovern.bsky.social would help ensure these families can access safe, affordable, and age-appropriate housing. Because housing is a human right.

Menopause is a natural stage of life that affects millions of women across the country. But too many of us can’t access accurate information & care, leading to discomfort & health disparities. With @demwomencaucus.bsky.social, I am urging HHS & FDA to strengthen & expand menopause research.

Today we mark the 53 years since #RoevWade—& the 4th without a constitutional right to abortion. Since SCOTUS overturned Roe, we've seen: —Millions losing access to healthcare —Higher Black maternal morbidity —Patients & providers criminalized —Cruel abortion bans —& more

BREAKING: I just introduced a discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haiti. Our Haitian neighbors deserve to continue their essential work & contributions to our communities. And if Donald Trump won’t act to protect Haitian lives, then Congress must.

I just voted HELL NO to giving ICE a single penny. Congress should not be funding an agency that has terrorized our communities, kidnapped our neighbors, and killed people on the street with impunity. We must abolish ICE and end qualified immunity for ICE agents NOW.

BREAKING: I just introduced a discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haiti. Our Haitian neighbors deserve to continue their essential work & contributions to our communities. And if Donald Trump won’t act to protect Haitian lives, then Congress must.

Today, the House will vote on a bill to give ICE $28 billion more with no accountability. I will vote NO. ICE is a rogue agency that operates with callous disregard for human life. They are endangering our neighbors, babies & children, bystanders & protestors.

Our Haitian neighbors are critical to our communities and essential to our economy. But now, 350,000 of them could be at risk of deportation if Trump terminates TPS for Haiti on Feb 3. Hear directly from advocates on how this will impact our communities:

America deserves a HUD Secretary who will tackle the fair & affordable housing crisis. But @secretaryturner.bsky.social is failing the people & sitting on the sidelines. Trump and Republicans are using him as the poster child for their anti-DEI crusade, and the people deserve better.

Lisa Cook is a brilliant economist who belongs on the Federal Reserve. Trump's attempt to fire her is a baseless, unlawful, and anti-Black power grab that threatens Fed independence. The Supreme Court must uphold the law and rein in this unprecedented abuse of power.

Today, we used the power of the Congressional gavel to listen, bear witness, & stand in strong solidarity with our Haitian neighbors. Our hearing made clear that terminating TPS for over 350,000 Haitians is cruel and it is a death sentence. And Trump must reverse course NOW.

A year into Trump's second term, I'm grateful for the everyday people who've stood strong in the face of cruelty. In today's @bostonglobe.com, I wrote about why democracy is still ours to defend, and how the only way to beat a dictator is with defiance.

As Trump marks one year of governing with contempt for our immigrant neighbors, we're centering one of the communities most impacted. I’m holding a hearing with @markey.senate.gov on Trump's termination of TPS for Haiti & how it'll impact families in MA. Tune in: www.youtube.com/live/PDWQ-UZ...

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a man before he was made a martyr. A husband, father, son, and man with a bold vision for revolutionary change. As we reflect on his legacy today, let's not forget his humanity.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. wrote the blueprint for our survival. Today, we take our cues from him — not from insecure, wannabe kings who traffic in hate. Together, we'll continue resisting authoritarianism, because “right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant.”

Abolish ICE. Impeach Kristi Noem. End qualified immunity.

In his last speech, Dr. King reminded us that the greatness of America is the right to protest for rights. His words are as relevant today as they were then. In the face of authoritarianism, we'll always remain active, engaged, and relentless in our pursuit of justice.

Coretta Scott King wasn't just a grieving widow who picked up a mantle. She was already an effective strategist and activist who wrote the blueprint for our survival. And she reminded us that freedom is never really won — you have to earn it and win it in every generation.

We cannot stand idly by while rogue ICE agents ravage our communities, brutalize families, and kill our neighbors. Our bill sends a powerful message to everyone in America—citizen or not—that when ICE agents break the law, they should and will be held accountable.

Solidarity with the people of Iran as they fight for their humanity, independence, & right to self-determination from a violent, authoritarian regime. From Massachusetts and Minnesota to the Middle East and beyond, our freedoms and our destinies are tied.

HUGE: After we fought back, Trump is delaying his cruel plans to seize the wages & tax refunds of folks behind on their student loans. This would've been devastating for borrowers & our economy—& it should never happen. Congress must pass our bill to end garnishment permanently.

Trump’s cuts to SNAP have been devastating for families in Massachusetts. I’m in Everett with @repmcgovern.bsky.social for his #EndHungerNow tour to check in and offer support to local retailers like El Valle La Sultana Market and families impacted by these harmful cuts. Tune in:

DWC members joined together at the @usprogressives.bsky.social hearing on the importance of lowering the cost of housing. ALL women and families deserve a safe, affordable place to live.

The White House is giving pardons to fraudsters. Trump is more concerned with protecting billionaire thieves than feeding hungry Americans.

Suspending immigrant visas for 75 countries is a cruel, racist, and xenophobic policy that does nothing to keep America safe. It is a betrayal to families who have played by the rules & waited years to be reunited with their loved ones. The Trump Admin must reverse course.
