This man is doing everything possible to NOT feed people.

Tonight's Dem victories show we’re a big tent party that wins when we fight for the people—affordability, healthcare, & democracy. Grateful for every candidate, organizer, & voter. I feel so hopeful & resolved to keep defending our communities & governing like lives depend on it, because they do.

Congrats Mayor-Elect @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social! What you accomplished is historic. You led with a politics of transformation, built a movement campaign that met people where they are, and showed what's possible when we lay out an affirmative vision for a more just, affordable city.

Congrats to my friend, partner, & sister, Mayor @wutrain.bsky.social on your decisive re-election! You've led us through consequential times with clear vision & stood firm in defense of our neighbors. I'm grateful for you—& for the organizers, volunteers & voters who made this victory possible.

From serving as freshmen in the 116th Congress, to fighting for the ERA, to your making history in Virginia. Congratulations to @abigailspanberger.com for flipping VA & becoming the Commonwealth's first woman Governor. And TY to the staff, volunteers, & voters who made it possible.

Grateful for the leadership, friendship, and sisterhood of @juliaforboston.bsky.social. You've earned another two years as our Boston City Councilor At-Large and we're ready to send you back!

A beautiful Election Day tradition to break bread and be in community at Santarpio's Pizza in Eastie. MA-7th, polls are open until 8pm! Make sure to vote and make your voice heard: WhereDoIVoteMA.com.

Energized and ready to send my sister-in-service @ruthzee.bsky.social back to the Boston City Council At-Large. Great to spend some time with her this morning in East Boston.

Boston, today's the day! Get out there and decisively re-elect Mayor @wutrain.bsky.social—the bold, innovative, effective leader our city needs and deserves. Find your polling location at Boston.gov/Elections.

🗳️It's Election Day in Massachusetts! Polls are open until 8pm, so grab your loved ones and neighbors, and make a plan to vote. Find your polling location at WhereDoIVoteMA.com.

It's not enough for Trump to only fund half of SNAP benefits in November. Families need ALL of their food assistance and they need it NOW. Trump must fully fund SNAP and Republicans must reopen the government.

Trump and Republicans could use their majorities to uplift America's families. But instead they're taking food out of people's mouths. @usdagov.bsky.social must follow the law, fund SNAP, and keep families fed.

Donald Trump is quietly trying to rig an election. California: Vote #YESonProp50.

It was a joy to cast my ballot alongside Conan, my love and partner in good, this morning. This is your reminder that Early Voting in Massachusetts is now open! Find your early vote polling location and make a plan to vote today.

Under Republicans' govt shutdown, families could stop receiving food assistance on Nov. 1. Trump has the authority & money to fund SNAP benefits through November, but he's currently choosing not to. We're calling on the @USDA to reverse course and act NOW to feed our families.

Every day Republicans keep our government shut down, the pain grows deeper. Hungry children, empty pantries, elders unable to take their meds, and so much more. Trump and Republicans must fund SNAP, re-open the government, and address the harm they've caused.

📢Hey Massachusetts 7th! Early voting across our district is now open. Find your early vote polling location and make a plan to vote today.

Proud to stand with this brilliant, effective Black woman speaking truth to power.

Donald Trump is destroying our White House, destroying our government, destroying our economy, and destroying our democracy.

No child should go to bed hungry and no family should have to choose between paying for medicine or putting food on the table. But under this Republican government shutdown, that’s becoming a reality for many. Here are two food bank resources for folks in the MA-7th:

The ongoing attacks against Black bodies, Black leaders, and Black progress cannot be ours to fight alone. We stand with you @replamonica.bsky.social, @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social, @newyorkstateag.bsky.social, and everyone who stands to be harmed by this hostile Administration.

While a hostile administration weaponizes the rule of law against the people, I’m grateful to have an AG who won’t back down from big fights in the name of justice and truth.

Inspired by the millions of people who give a damn about our democracy & made it plain: There are no kings in America. Together, we'll build a world that puts people over profit, diversity over nationalism, peace over war, hope over fear, love over hate, & freedom over fascism.

There are NO KINGS in America. That's why we resist, agitate, organize, and mobilize. Because the only way to beat a dictator is with defiance.

As a parent and woman of faith, I am deeply relieved that surviving Israeli hostages and detained Palestinians are finally being reunited with their families. And my heart remains shattered for those whose loved ones didn't make it home today.

Trump's attacks against @newyorkstateag.bsky.social are baseless, malicious, and a threat to our democracy. Proud to stand with this effective, impactful Attorney General. Trump wishes he was half as good at his job as her.

It was unlawful then, and it's unlawful now. Trump is using the government shutdown HE created to continue attacking federal employees and harm families. The cruelty is the point.

Mike Johnson and Republicans should listen to their own voters. Re-open the government NOW and stop playing games with people's lives.

This is nothing more than a continuation of the president’s desperate weaponization of our justice system. I am not fearful — I am fearless. We will fight these baseless charges aggressively, and my office will continue to fiercely protect New Yorkers and their rights..

Different day, same distractions. If only Trump were as obsessed with helping families as he is with political retribution and attacking brilliant Black women.

Heidi treats some of the most vulnerable children—kids whose lives depend on Medicaid and ACA tax credits to access life-saving care. Instead of helping patients like hers, Republicans chose to shut down the government and threaten babies' lives. The cruelty is the point.

Trump and Republicans caused the government shutdown. And now they’re hinting at breaking the law to steal workers’ paychecks. This is blatantly illegal and we won't stand for it. www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...

My statement on the two-year anniversary of the horrific October 7th attack carried out by Hamas in Israel:

Last week, rogue ICE agents attacked an apartment complex in South Shore, Chicago—unlawfully terrorizing families in their own homes. Young children zip were tied. Homes were ransacked. Entire families—including U.S. citizens—were forced into vans like cattle. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

This incredible woman, @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social, is the duly elected Congresswoman from AZ and the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files. Speaker Johnson refused to swear her in before the government shut down. They will do literally anything to deny survivors justice.

Tony has stage-four thymic carcinoma. With the expanded ACA tax credits, he's been able to get life-saving care. Without them, his healthcare costs would jump & he'd have to drop his coverage altogether. While Democrats fight for families like his, Republicans chose to shut down the government.

Trump and Republicans shut down the government and are threatening the lives & livelihoods of folks across the MA-7th. I held an emergency meeting to center the people most impacted and demand Republicans re-open the government & address the healthcare crisis they created.

Imagine controlling the White House, the Senate, and the House and crying “blame Democrats” when the government shuts down. Republicans need to get serious about working for the people.

To all observing Yom Kippur today, my family and I wish you a meaningful fast and day of reflection and restoration. G’Mar Chatima Tova.

My office is here to support. #MA7 residents who need assistance can call us at 617-850-0040 or visit Pressley.House.Gov. For more information about how a government shutdown could impact federal agencies & services, visit: pressley.house.gov/govshutdown.

Trump and Republicans have shamefully shut down the government. While I work to re-open the government and protect our communities, my office will remain available to assist #MA7 constituents. Here's how we got here and what you need to know:

By shutting down the government, Trump and Republicans are threatening the lives and livelihoods of millions of families. I'll keep fighting to reopen the government, mitigate the Republican-caused healthcare crisis, and protect our communities. My full statement:

We won't go quietly into the night while Republicans shut down our government and make people hungrier, sicker, and more vulnerable. To the families who stand to be impacted: We see you. We're fighting for you. And we will not give up.

Trump's cult of followers are attacking & making vulnerable another woman of color simply for doing her job. It is dangerous & despicable. The normalization of these threats cannot stand. We must speak out against them every single time & demand accountability every single time. @jayapal.house.gov

Republicans have gutted our government, ripped away Medicaid from millions, & created a healthcare crisis. Now they want to shut down the government instead of working with Democrats to address the harm they caused. The people deserve better.

The way @jasmineforus.bsky.social is living rent free in the heads of clout chasing Republicans who will not be named. Keep doing what you do, Sis. 👑

For generations, Black women have crafted the blueprint for survival—organizing & advocating for our liberation. So grateful to Renee Bracey Sherman, Alexis McGill Johnson, & Regina Davis Moss for sharing the stage at #ALC54 to discuss the role of Black women in the fight for reproductive justice.

Grateful for the sisterhood, leadership, and service of my fellow Links & Boston Links. It meant so much to be recognized alongside my Links sisters who serve with me in Congress. Congratulations to everyone recognized at our 6th Annual Legislative Luncheon.

Thank you to everyone who joined us for our screening and discussion about a new film by Abby Ginzberg about my time in office! And shout out to @tiffanydcross.bsky.social for moderating. Through this film, I hope viewers will feel seen by our work and feel fortified for the fights ahead.

It was a joy to kick off CBC week at the State of the People DC Community Day. This is about mutual aid, and sharing resources that uplift health, justice, and economic opportunity. In this moment of chaos, we must always choose community.
