The Senate cannot keep up business as usual after the President threatened genocide in Iran. I just tried to hold Trump accountable in the Senate Commerce Committee. Every Republican voted no.

I introduced the Youth AI Privacy Act to protect kids from the harms of AI chatbots. No ads to kids. No profiling. No addictive design tricks. Children and teens’ privacy must come first.

Trump’s war is sending oil prices soaring and Big Oil is cashing in. Families pay more at the pump. CEOs profit. That’s not energy policy. That’s profiteering. Instead, I’m advocating for a tax on big oil windfall profits, and for oil execs to cut their pay.

20 years ago, Massachusetts led the nation on health care for all—because no one should be priced out of caring for themselves and their families. Now it’s time to finish the job nationwide.

Always a joy to be in Chelsea at @la_colaborativa! I was able to hear directly from community leaders and families about food access, economic development, and growing small businesses. Grateful to have such relentless and visionary partners in this fight. Honored to be a part of the work ahead.

Let’s be clear: Trump’s illegal war on Iran is a tax hike on American small businesses and families. Enough. End the war, end Trump’s affordability crisis, and end the pain on Main Street.

In February, Massachusetts experienced a blizzard that battered businesses and infrastructure, shut off power, and buried communities under historic levels of snow. I’m joining with my colleagues in the MA delegation to urge FEMA to approve Gov. Healey’s request for needed relief.

Immigrants who are following the rules and showing up to immigration court risk walking into a trap set by the Trump administration. This is not justice. This is punishment. That’s why I introduced the SHIELD Act: to help ensure immigrants, including young children, can obtain legal counsel, no matter their ability to pay.

Trump wants to claim victory in his war with Iran but he's only made a bigger mess. 13 US troops and thousands of Iranian civilians have been killed. Gas has spiked to $4 a gallon. We need diplomacy to end this war now.

The Supreme Court’s ruling in February offered small businesses temporary relief from what has become a year of pain and uncertainty for Main Street. We must stop the pain from becoming permanent. Trump must automatically refund his tariff taxes.

I’m glad there is a reported ceasefire deal with Iran. But we shouldn’t be in this illegal war in the first place. And Donald Trump can’t simply threaten war crimes with impunity. Congress needs to get back in session now to stop this war and remove Donald Trump.

Reminder: Right now, Democrats have a chance to stand up to Trump's chaos. Trump just requested an additional $1.5 trillion in military funding. We cannot hand over a huge check to a President intent on committing war crimes. I will do everything in my power to block it.

Donald Trump said “a whole civilization will die tonight”. There is no room for interpretation. The President of the United States is threatening genocide in Iran.
