Today marks eight years since the horrifying shooting at Marjorie Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida. 17 students & educators were murdered and 17 more were injured.

All these years later, the fight continues to pass gun safety legislation to make sure this kind of tragedy never happens again.

Donald Trump's reckless tariffs have increased prices and made life harder for working families across our country.

Just SIX Republicans had the courage to vote to stop Trump's tariffs and lower costs for the American people.

Donald Trump's EPA Director should stand behind a diesel truck's exhaust for 10 minutes and then tell us that pollution doesn't negatively impact our health.

This is worse than a joke. It's a massive multibillion handout to the biggest corporate polluters in our country.

Massachusetts is home to some of the best community colleges in the country. Schools like Middlesex Community College, Northern Essex Community College, and Mount Wachusett Community College give students an opportunity to develop the skills they need to succeed in today’s economy.

Grocery prices continue to climb. Health care is more expensive than ever. And fewer Americans can buy a home.

To tackle these issues, Republicans in Washington are calling for an investigation into Bad Bunny.

Donald Trump’s reckless tariffs have made life harder for working families across our country. Prices are up on just about everything – groceries, medications, health care.

What’s there to be proud of?

Republicans in Congress are once again trying to pass the SAVE Act, legislation that will threaten the right to vote for millions of American women. I’m a hell NO on this bill.

Kristi Noem has continued to put Americans in harm's way with her reckless leadership at DHS.

If she won't resign and Donald Trump won't fire Noem, Congress must impeach and remove her from office.

First it was Republican Senators trying to pocket $500k in taxpayer money.

Now, Donald Trump is trying to siphon $10 BILLION of your tax dollars directly into his bank account by suing the IRS.

When are these guys going to prioritize protecting taxpayers over pocketing money for themselves?

Folks hosting Super Bowl parties tomorrow know just how high grocery prices have climbed.

Trump’s tariffs keep pushing prices higher and higher while families are already stretched thin.

Donald Trump and Republicans forced the ACA tax credits to expire, causing health care premiums to double and families to drop coverage altogether.
Millions may drop ACA coverage — and raise health insurance costs for everyone else
Some experts warn of a potential "death spiral" in the Affordable Care Act marketplace if young, healthy consumers drop coverage amid soaring costs.

Massachusetts leads the world in medical innovation. That’s why an ARPA-H Hub was established here – where new breakthroughs and treatments are being unlocked as we speak.

The Trump administration undermining this hub would be devastating for patients and for our economy.

Donald Trump and Republicans have done NOTHING while health care prices skyrocketed for millions of Americans.

They’re still refusing to work with Democrats to extend the ACA credits and save families’ health care.
With an ACA fix uncertain in the Senate, Republicans replay old health care fights
Things are looking bleak for a fix in Congress for ACA premiums that have doubled, on average. And Republicans are making arguments against the law that haven't worked in years past.

Proud to sign onto @pressley.house.gov’s discharge petition to force a vote on extending TPS for Haitian refugees who are legally here in the U.S.

Yesterday’s court ruling blocking Trump’s attempt to end Haitian TPS is a win – but it’s temporary.

For years, families have told me how frustrating and overwhelming it can be to navigate a health care system that moves too slowly when their child’s life is on the line.

I introduced two bills to change that, and they just became law.
