1/ The Postal Service is essential to the fabric of our communities, delivering life-saving prescriptions, Social Security benefits, paychecks, tax returns, and ballots. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

More than 1.5 million Massachusetts residents rely on Medicaid, including more than 164,000 in MA-01. They are at risk of losing those benefits because Republicans want to give another tax cut to the top 2% www.cbsnews.com/news/what-is...

1/ The first Presidents' Day was celebrated in 1879 as a tribute to George Washington. Despite the overwhelming adoration he received, President Washington recognized the importance of setting a precedent to prevent the kind of tyranny he fought to subvert.

1/ THANK YOU to the more than 8,000 constituents who joined my telephone town hall last night. I heard every one of your concerns about the new administration, and they are shared by my Democratic colleagues and I.

1/ Over the last three weeks, I've heard from countless constituents concerned about many of the actions taken by the Trump Administration. Tonight, join me for a telephone town hall at 6:30 PM EST to discuss how we are fighting back against against this executive overreach.

I'm all for saving taxpayer money. The last time we had a balanced budget was under President Clinton. And then what happened? Republicans gave away the house to the rich with tax handouts in '01, '03, and '17 to the tune of $10 trillion.

What's being targeted in the Republican budget proposal? ❌ The Affordable Care Act ❌ Medicaid & CHIP ❌ SNAP Here's what this may look like in MA-01.

Congress wasn't established in Article I of the Constitution to rubberstamp the will and whims of the Executive Branch. As Ranking Member @neal.house.gov said, "Our job is to question the authority." Republicans need to wake up and remember their responsibility.

Executive Order 14149, "Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship," highlights the importance of our First Amendment & how it's essential to our Republic. Threatening a news outlet with White House access to force your own narrative doesn't sound like upholding the First Amendment.

1/ To all of my constituents that have called my office regarding an unelected billionaire having access to sensitive federal payment systems and confidential tax information, I hear you. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/01/u...
