Just in the last week, Americans have been shot and killed at their desks, in their homes, outside their grocery stores & on their community streets. We #WearOrange as a reminder that it doesn’t have to be this way when we turn advocacy into action.
Impeaching this President is more than an indictment of one man’s actions, it is a protective shield around the most powerful democratic office on earth. History will harshly judge those who chose power over justice.
You should be angry.
Happy birthday to the world’s best grandma!
After a brief and successful fire drill at Newton North High School, we had a great discussion with students about civic engagement and public service in their community!

Throughout the holidays, our service members sacrifice precious time with their families to keep us safe and promote our values around the world. Deeply humbling to send a note of gratitude to those selfless men and women.
#IWalkForJustice because we have yet to make good on our fundamental promise of equal justice under law. To all of the advocates bringing this fight to our Commonwealth’s State House tomorrow, we’re standing by your side. Please don’t slow down now!
The assassination of Qassem Soleimani last night laid bare the consequences of war powers increasingly coopted by the executive branch alone. Regardless of intent, President Trump’s actions brought us closer to war, without the consent of the American people or their elected representatives.
Matthew Shepard was stolen from his family by bigotry and hatred. His parents, Judy and Dennis, have channeled their grief into bravery and have made this world a better, kinder place in his memory.
If we don’t know the scope of anti-LGBTQ violence in this country, we can’t bring it to an end. That’s why I joined @repseanpatrickmaloney today to introduce the #LGBTQEssentialDataAct to make sure every American counts & our government’s protection is never conditional. 📸: @housecreativeservices

Communities that have shouldered the economic and health consequences of environmental destruction shouldn’t just be a consideration of climate change policies, they should be the focus. With our Environmental Justice for All Act, we can do more than just right the wrongs of our past, we can fundamentally change how we enact systemic reform in this country. Advocates and activists brought us to this inflection point in our nation’s history, now Congress must do our job to make good on our promise of justice for all.
Centuries of historic injustice have left systemic racism woven deeply throughout our health care system. Few feel that pain more acutely and severely than Black moms. That’s why I joined @repunderwood & @repadams to introduce the Black Maternal Health #Momnibus today.
Make no mistake, President Trump’s ban on transgender troops will be defeated. Our past, present and future is built on a promise that everyone counts. To all the trans servicemembers & their families, please know this country sees you & we are grateful for your sacrifice.
To the Lasell College Class of 2019 and graduates across our country, you have come of age in an era of turmoil and transition, and you haven’t backed down once. Don’t start now. Good luck to all of our fearless graduates!
Stop & Shop workers aren’t only demanding better wages and greater workplace protections for themselves and their families, they’re fighting for every American worker trying to make ends meet while corporations profit from their work. Proud to stand with these loyal workers today.
When patients battling an opioid addiction come into contact with our justice system, they should have an attorney by their side. Grateful for Legal Services Corporation’s efforts to not only meet that need, but to study the underlying shortcomings in our system.
Rare New England builds a community of patients, families & volunteers so that no one is forced to confront a rare disease alone. Deeply grateful for their presence in Attleboro and inspired by their work.
As our country marches towards a clean energy future, our Commonwealth’s workers and businesses can be found standing on the frontlines along the South Coast. By reimagining and rebuilding Brayton Point to meet the needs of our emerging offshore wind industry, the Anbaric Renewable Energy Center will not only strengthen our local economy, it will help us confront the effects of climate change already threatening our coastal communities.

Together, Golda Meir House, @lifeat2life & MassHousing are lifting seniors up and allowing them to live out some of their best years without condition or caveat. Thanks for letting me join today!
