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 introd...

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.

This kind of loose-lipped ambiguity about the United States using nuclear weapons is apocalyptically dangerous and unacceptable. JD Vance and the White House must clarify immediately—no nuclear wea...

A war powers resolution will not be enough. Yes. We need to assert congressional authority and stop this illegal war in Iran. But, Trump is clearly an unstable warmonger at odds with the will of th...

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump thre...

One year ago, Trump unleashed his reckless tariff taxes, calling it "Liberation Day." For Main Street, it was Obliteration Day, costing small businesses billions and sending the economy tumbling. ...

Energy bills are too high, and thanks to Trump, they keep getting bigger. We don’t have to accept this. That’s why I’m getting out a Ratepayer Roadmap—a three-part path to lower costs, build clea...

Trump said the illegal war in Iran would take 4 to 6 weeks. We’re already there, yet he’s asking Congress for $200 billion more—enough for 100 days—and sending ground troops. This is not winding ...

I'm on my way to the Senate floor to vote for @SenChrisMurphy ‘s War Powers Resolution. We must end Trump’s illegal war with Iran now.

Last week, I inspected the ICE detention center in Plymouth. I saw scores of detained individuals whose only offense was being undocumented. I will continue to stand with our immigrant neighbor...

If the SAVE America Act passes, it will be easier to buy a gun in many states than to vote. Just let that sink in.

Working Americans forced to miss shifts. Rural voters traveling for hours. LGBTQ Americans facing ID hurdles. The SAVE Act is about disenfranchising voters. Instead of free and fair elections, it...

Electric and fuel-efficient vehicles. Clean energy. Battery storage technology. Trump calls that socialism. But what do you call 100 years of tax breaks for oil, gas, and coal? Give us some of ...

While continuing to hold the line against Republicans’ bill to strip voting rights from millions of Americans, I also just passed my bipartisan Sea Turtle Rescue Assistance and Rehabilitation Act o...

Republicans can’t build support for their policies, so they’re trying to block access to the polls. We must stop the SAVE America Act and protect voting rights.

It’s not even subtle. Carr is saying: Broadcasters, cover Trump’s illegal Iran war as he says or the Trump FCC will destroy you. This is censorship.

A Massachusetts small business owner testified this week that health insurance premiums for his business are rising 27% this year. This is not sustainable. When MAGA Republicans refuse to lower hea...

Donald Trump is throwing gasoline on the flames of war in Iran, while at home, Americans are paying higher prices for gasoline at the pump. Take a walk with me to see how prices are skyrocketing as...

So much joy in Easthampton this evening at the CitySpace ArtWalk. Proud to support the artists, musicians, and community that make this city special, and celebrate the $3.5 million I secured to r...
