Reflections on MLK weekend. Let’s all take action!

In 2025 our office fired on all cylinders, bringing results to Suffolk 9 by delivering on constituent services, budget priorities, community outreach, and key legislation. In 2026 we will continue to focus every day on enduring that everyone in this district thrives!

Just as we were about to have another democratic discussion about January 6th, Trump changes the narrative. Curious timing to say the least!

Let’s work together in 2026 to ensure everyone can realize their dreams!

Had an amazing morning delivering turkeys to ABCD in the South End alongside Senator Collins, Rep. Biele, Councilor Fitzgerald, and Councilor Flynn. Grateful for this community and the leaders who serve it. 🦃❤️

Today we honor those we’ve lost. Your lives, your stories, and your strength will never be forgotten. In their memory, we will continue to fight for a world where every trans person can live openly, safely, and without fear. 🏳️‍⚧️🕯️

When our country feels divided, days like this show us what unity really looks like. Thank you to all who serve - Happy Veterans Day

Thank you Speaker Mariano and Chairman Michlewitz for your leadership!

I’m proud to endorse Mayor Michelle Wu for re-election. She has continued to show her commitment to protecting and supporting the LGBTQ+ community across Boston. I look forward to continuing to work together to tackle the issues facing our communities.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Thanks to Senator Nick Collins for including me in his annual South Boston tradition yesterday!

Congratulations to the Foley family for 116 years of fabulous hospitality and cheer in Boston’s South End!

Thrilled to get to work on my new committees for the 194th General Court!

As a former student of foreign policy, Trump’s actions of cozying up to a bully (who invaded a sovereign nation) while blaming the victim should cause alarm for all Americans no matter your political persuasion. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/18/u...

Marking the next step of the Trump administration’s plan to erase LGBTQ+ Americans, CMS just put out a message that sexual orientation and gender identity questions must be deleted from Medicare enrollment forms. #makeAmericaHateAgain

Hopefully Seth Moulton realizes that trans athlete rights are just the first attack on LGBTQ rights in the Project 2025 playbook!

Today I’m choosing joy! Happy MLK Day!

Was great to kick off MLK weekend with some additional hometown heroes at The BASE’s annual Career Fair!

Was thrilled to attend the State of the Commonwealth with Michael. First event as a married couple!

Thank you, Suffolk 9, for the opportunity to serve a second term!

With this official summons in hand, I am humbled, grateful and excited to get to work in my second term!

Edna is ready for the holidays. In my family we are counting our blessings . Peace of the season to all!

As we enter Thanksgiving week, I am grateful for the Mary Ann Brett Food Pantry and other organizations throughout MA Suffolk District 9 who work tirelessly to care for those in need!
