Last week I testified in favor of An Act Relative to Preventing Overdose Deaths and Increasing Access to Treatment, a bill I filed with @RepDylan & @JulianCyr that would create an overdose prevention center program. #OPCs save lives & every life is worth saving #MA4OPC @MAforOPC

Sadly, and predictably, as @JohnRosenthal stated there would be a mass shooting occurring somewhere in the U.S. right now, I walked out of the event and read about the tragic shooting in #Lewiston, 3 hours away, where at least 18 lives have already been lost

The MA House of Representatives continues to lead the way in ensuring we have the lowest gun violence as a result of passing #gunsense laws. Thank you Speaker @RonMariano for your unwavering commitment to this issue.

We can and must improve and expand birthing options, including birth centers, supporting access to midwives and doulas & reimbursement for lactation services. TY to @baystatebirth, @birthcenterbos & so many others for your tireless advocacy for birthing people.

The Legislature has and continues to help improve maternal and infant health outcomes. I look forward to continuing to work with @maurahealey and @MassHHS on this issue.

It was a privilege to join the #midwife community on the State House Steps to both celebrate and advocate for the important role of birth choices and healthier maternal outcomes.

I was honored to join residents, HRI, elected leaders & folks who contributed to the construction of Rivermark Apartments for a ribbon cutting last week. This renovation represents the beauty and dignity that is worthy of tenants calling home.

100 years after winning the right to vote, democracy is threatened. The rights of women, Black & brown people, immigrants & our LGBTQ community continue to be chipped away. I’m hopeful that with our history of fighting for voting rights, we can reclaim the progress we achieved.

The Legislature also voted to override many of the Governor’s FY24 budget vetoes and restore funding to state programs. Among them are youth suicide prevention and peer support and MA Community Action Agencies supporting food pantries and affordable housing.
