With @benjiwheeler.bsky.social at his victory party in East Somerville last night. I got to know Ben over the course of the campaign — and people who’ve known him for years kept telling me he’s the real deal! I was proud to endorse him and am excited to work with him on social housing and more! 🎉

Congratulations Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani — proud to campaign for you and meet with you in Queens last week. Congratulations to the democratic socialist movement and to the people of NYC. Let’s now make the affordability agenda happen not just in the Big Apple but everywhere in the USA.

Tonight's Dem victories show we’re a big tent party that wins when we fight for the people—affordability, healthcare, & democracy.

Grateful for every candidate, organizer, & voter.

I feel so hopeful & resolved to keep defending our communities & governing like lives depend on it, because they do.

Interview clip w/ @channel5bluesky.bsky.social outside the rally in Queens last week; asked about the reasons for Zohran’s popularity, I said his campaign is building on the Bernie movement by standing up for the things Democrats have always said they believe in but that we have to fight harder for…

@mikeconnollyma.bsky.social is our OG democratic socialist state rep, and his leadership continues to pave the way for a rising cadre of bold leftist leaders changing the status quo on Beacon Hill. I am so grateful for his support in our race for Cambridge City Council.

Incredible weekend campaigning for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and the affordability agenda. Thank you, Zohran, for building the movement to make buses fast and free, to win universal childcare and a rent freeze — and for being a nice guy. This is the most hopeful moment since before the pandemic!

Out here in Queens canvassing for @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social and the affordability agenda. Looking forward to the rally at Forest Hills Stadium with Bernie and AOC this evening! 🙌🏻

Clean Elections are at the core of our vision for leftist politics — so I was excited to testify this week before the Joint Committee on Election Laws in support of legislation I filed to allow for public financing of municipal elections. Thank you @votejivan.bsky.social for working with me on this.

Tonight at 7 pm, MassDOT will host a virtual design public hearing to review the plans for the Mystic River Bicycle Pedestrian Bridge. I am very proud of the work we’ve done with my local colleagues to advocate for state funding to construct this bridge with a newly-designed 18-foot width.

Excellent Town Hall Meeting in Porter Square last night in support of making big corporations pay their fair share in taxes. As State Representative, I’m proud to always be on the forefront of efforts to #TaxTheRich and address today’s unprecedented wealth and income inequality.
