Eight years after Marjory Stoneman Douglas, we remember the 17 lives stolen and the families forever changed. Their courage sparked a movement led by young people who refused to accept gun violence as inevitable. We honor them by continuing the fight for safer communities.

When Jaylen came to Boston, he set out to empower entrepreneurs to own, build, and grow businesses that last. With his mother, Mechalle, BosXchange and 7uiceFoundation are creating opportunities for real economic power through ownership. youtube.com/shorts/NVzb-...

DOJ is spying on lawmakers who are reading through the Epstein files. If they can do that to members of Congress, imagine what they are doing to you. This is Trump’s surveillance state.

Visitors to our country should not face a digital shakedown. @wyden.senate.gov and I are calling on CBP to reverse its invasive proposal to collect five years of social media history from travelers from trusted partner nations.

Good. Our pressure is working. We don’t have to accept an ever-expanding surveillance state. Now Ring needs to go further: End facial recognition now.

What’s described here isn’t isolated—it’s systemic. Embedded bias in AI has real-world consequences. My AI Civil Rights Act would put strict guardrails on algorithms to prevent bias and discrimination. Innovation without safeguards isn’t progress.

ICE and CBP are using facial recognition to surveil Americans and target protesters. No transparency. No accountability. We need to pass my ICE Out of Our Faces Act to ban this abuse and defend our constitutional rights. www.youtube.com/shorts/QpHZT...

The Trump administration is systematically targeting unaccompanied children for removal, detaining kids for long periods in inhumane conditions, and dismantling child-friendly protections. This is vile and unconscionable. Kids belong with their families—not living behind bars. End this terror.

BREAKING: Trump’s EPA just repealed the landmark endangerment finding to give polluters a free pass. The science is clear: greenhouse gas pollution presents a clear and present danger to our health and planet. No amount of denial from Trump or Zeldin will change that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QkWf...

Trump’s SBA is ratcheting up its discriminatory attacks on immigrants. The result? Local economies and small businesses are suffering. The Small Business Administration must rescind its draconian citizenship rule and give entrepreneurs a fair shot at the American dream.

I am calling on ICE to immediately release Seamus Culleton. It is appalling that Seamus has remained in detention for 5 months in dire conditions, away from his family. As a spouse of a U.S. citizen with strong Massachusetts ties, there is no justification for keeping him detained. Release him now.

Our nation’s largest public utility with its MAGA Republican appointed board is prioritizing dirty coal on behalf of our dirty President—driving up energy costs and polluting air and water for the 10 million Americans who live in the Tennessee Valley. The TVA must change course.

Get ICE out. Lawless thugs are terrorizing entire communities, have murdered and injured innocent people with impunity, and are surveilling and targeting protestors. Not another dime for ICE. Defund. Abolish.

This is good news. Now Trump needs to say the same thing. We do not want a new, dangerous, and expensive nuclear arms race with Russia or China. The last one cost $10 trillion and almost destroyed the planet. Been there, done that.

Canada and Massachusetts do $16 billion in trade every year. Trump's tariffs have only made housing and energy more expensive in the Commonwealth. Time for them to end.

Ring’s Super Bowl ad exposed a scary truth: the technology in its doorbell cameras could be used to hunt down a lost pet...or a person. Americans oppose this creepy surveillance state. Amazon must discontinue its dystopian monitoring features.

Our military’s strength comes from the courage, talent, and diversity of the Americans who serve. Dismissing that isn’t leadership—it’s disrespectful to every service member who defends our country.

From Massachusetts to Vermont, Team USA’s New England athletes are showing the grit, talent, and joy that define who we are as athletes, competitors, and neighbors. I’m rooting for you every step of the way. Go Team USA!

I recently visited ICE’s Burlington field office to conduct oversight and followed up to demand answers. No response. Since then, DHS thugs murdered Renée Good and Alex Pretti and continue to terrorize our communities. ICE must be held accountable for its cruelty and lawlessness.

It was an honor to host @uaw.org members from Massachusetts in my office today. Solidarity with UAW workers all across our Commonwealth who are fighting for the fair wages and benefits they deserve.

Pam Bondi is standing in the way of justice. Stop hiding the truth from the American people and release the full, unredacted files. Accountability and justice now.

This was a failed coup by the Trump administration against Democratic members of Congress. Everyday Americans on the grand jury stopped it. The 6 targets were right all along—don’t follow illegal orders. Speak truth to power. Because it will prevail.

When Waymo’s “driverless” cars encounter an uncertain situation, they rely on overseas operators to guide them. That’s a safety risk, a cybersecurity risk, and an outsourcing of American jobs. Americans deserve transparency when companies deploy technology on our roads. youtube.com/shorts/NbsLR...

Trump’s DHS is detaining thousands of immigrant children across the country in horrifyingly cruel conditions. Kids are being separated from their families, their schools, and their communities. This is heartbreaking and unacceptable. Read their stories: t.co/Kmq0o09Y6X

Trump and his MAGA cronies are trying to illegally and unilaterally take money out of the climate bank that I worked to pass into law. The Greenhouse Gas Reduction Fund was investing in clean, cheap energy to lower your bills. The courts must stop this brazen heist now.

1.5 million Armenians were killed in the Armenian Genocide. That truth cannot be erased. I’ve fought to ensure the U.S. recognizes these crimes as genocide, and I will keep standing with the Armenian community against the Trump administration's efforts to rewrite history.

Republicans want fewer people voting – especially Black and Brown voters. Trump and MAGA can’t win in 2026 on policies, so they’ll have to interfere with elections. We must protect the right to vote.

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

The Trump administration wants to collect five years of social media history from visitors from Visa Waiver countries. That’s invasive, creepy, and undermines trust with our closest allies. People should be able to visit loved ones and enjoy our country without being digitally stalked.

I'm grateful a judge has terminated removal proceedings against Rümeysa Öztürk. But let’s be clear: she never should have faced removal in the first place. Rümeysa is an example to us all of what it means to speak truth to power. Her courage and grace are inspiring.

What this ad doesn’t show: Ring also rolled out facial recognition for humans. I wrote to them months ago about this. Their answer? They won’t ask for your consent. This definitely isn’t about dogs—it’s about mass surveillance. x.com/Phil_Lewis_/...

There is no clause in the Constitution or law on the books—none—that allows a President to commandeer state elections. No emergency power. No implied authority. No ‘because I say so.’ We will not let Trump take over our free and fair elections.

Jimmy Lai has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for standing up for democracy and speaking truth to power. This is a deliberate attempt by Beijing to crush dissent and silence independent voices in Hong Kong. Speaking out is not a crime—it is the foundation of democracy.

Happy birthday E-Rate! Thirty years ago today I created the E-Rate program to ensure we keep students connected to the digital world, no matter their zip code. Thank you to the educators, students, schools, and libraries who have joined the fight to close the digital divide.

“Renee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last. You know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know—their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

Last week, I demanded answers from ICE again about inhumane conditions at Burlington, following up on my oversight visit. This is no place to hold people. Accountability now.

RFK Jr. is a liar. He lied to me about his anti-vax Samoa trip. The CDC’s vaccine advisory panel is now stacked with conspiracists and the US is positioned to lose its measles elimination status. RFK Jr. must be removed now.

If Trump resumes nuclear testing, it would be a gift to China. The US has conducted over 1,000 nuclear tests; China has done just 45. Beijing has much more to gain from new nuclear tests than Washington. For Trump, this would be the height of stupidity. thehill.com/policy/inter...

Massachusetts is not defenseless. Know your rights. Memorize them. Share them.   A message from my office, @markey.senate.gov, @massgovernor.bsky.social, @mayorwu.boston.gov, @pressley.house.gov, @whipkclark.bsky.social, @repmcgovern.bsky.social, and @trahan.house.gov.

Azerbaijan's plan to sentence Armenian hostages to life imprisonment is a deep injustice. Following the ethnic cleansing of Armenians from Artsakh, President Aliyev continues to show a blatant disregard for human rights. He must uphold due process and release these hostages now.

Trump and his MAGA Republican cabinet are making your bills go up and keeping people out of work. Build, baby, build!

Trump wants to replace dedicated civil servants with yes-men who will carry out his criminal agenda without questions. Federal workers have a right to do their jobs, free from illegal political interference.

As history teaches us, the only way to win a nuclear arms race is to refuse to run. As New START expires, I'm arguing for a continued U.S. policy of disarmament—rooted in treaties, inspections, and verification.

The Family and Medical Leave Act became law 33 years ago today. It’s been a lifeline to millions, but Congress must secure #PaidLeaveForAll. Paid leave is good for Main Street, it’s good for families, and it’s good for our future.

Anthropic has announced that Claude will remain ad-free. I’m glad to see @anthropic.com agrees that ads in AI chatbots can pose serious risks to its users. That’s why I opened an investigation into AI chatbots’ advertising plans. Companies must put consumers first.

Trump's immigration crackdown is also about stealing the 2026 election. Trump and MAGA Republicans know they can't win at the ballot box, so they are setting the stage to deploy Trump's private army of ICE thugs against American voters. We must protect our elections.

Oil and natural gas are expensive—and dirty—ways to power our grid. The solution isn’t to get more dependent on expensive power—it’s for Trump and MAGA Republicans to stop blocking cheap, clean energy and stop raising prices by exporting gas abroad.

My constituent, Juan David’s habeas petition was denied yesterday. If he is removed from the United States, it will erase all avenues for protection. ICE must allow more time for his T visa relief process to be fully adjudicated.

The Trump administration wants to roll back the fuel economy standards that have saved Americans millions of dollars at the pump. We’re calling on Secretary Duffy to quit caving to the fossil fuel industry and keep the public’s gas pump and health costs down.

Orwellian surveillance tools have no place in a democracy. That is why I introduced the ICE Out of Our Faces Act—to stop ICE and CBP from using dangerous and discriminatory facial recognition technologies. This must end now.
