For working people across the country, Donald Trump’s affordability crisis is making it harder than ever to get by. We need to secure a democratic majority this November and make life more affordable for all.

I wrote to the FAA and Amazon demanding that they address Westborough residents’ concerns about Amazon’s drone delivery plans, including safety, privacy, and quality of life. Massachusetts communities deserve a real say in decisions affecting their neighborhoods.

Proud to have worked with local leaders and the American Postal Workers Union to ensure postal service remains accessible in Fields Corner. Every community deserves access to mail services—we must continue to organize and protect essential federal resources.

Cambridge is Wicked Blue. Proud to organize alongside so many Massachusetts Democrats today. With less than ten days until November 3rd—join us in the fight for a better future.

Prices are out of control—and families across the country are struggling to pay for groceries, energy costs, and health care. It’s time to make this country work for working people, not billionaire CEOs.

We are in a climate crisis. We need to take action and power a clean energy revolution that will create jobs, lower costs and ensure a more livable future for all.

Donald Trump, his family, and his Administration continue to profit off the presidency while working people struggle. We need to send our progressive movement to Congress and end Trump’s corruption now.

American democracy is for the people—not the ultra-wealthy. But CEO billionaires are spending big to buy election results, overruling working people in the process. Our grassroots movement is going to prove that the many will beat the money, every single time.

No one should have to suffer at the hands of ICE violence—we need to get Trump’s thugs off of our streets now. Abolish ICE.

We need to protect our businesses, health care systems and communities from private equity greed—it’s time to put people over profit.

Everyone deserves a life they can afford. Health care. Groceries. Energy costs. Prices are out of control, and the Trump administration is only continuing to drive them up—we need a progressive majority to fight for working people and make life affordable for all.

Honored to receive the endorsement of the Alliance for American Leadership, a true leader in our work to champion humanitarian aid, global public health, and international cooperation.

We have to end Citizens United. We need to ban stock trading by members of Congress. Our government should be an effective tool for the working people of this country—not a moneymaking opportunity for elected officials.

Working people are struggling under rising energy costs. We need clean energy now—to lower costs, create jobs, and secure a livable future for all.

High-quality health care is a human right. We need to restore the research funding Trump cut and build a brighter future for all.

Donald Trump is using the presidency to enrich himself and his Republican cronies. No more. We need to get money out of politics and protect the presidency from Trump corruption.

Working families are already struggling to get by—and in the middle of an affordability crisis, no one should have to worry about affording their home. We need to create affordable, accessible housing for all.

@giffords.org has been on the front lines of the fight to end gun violence in our country—and to pass commonsense gun safety laws. I'm honored to receive their endorsement and continue this work together.

In January, our first order of business is to restore everything—cuts to healthcare, research, clean energy projects—everything we need to build a better, brighter nation for all Americans.

This November, we're going to make our voices heard loud and clear: No Kings in this country. Make a plan—register, vote early, and show up for democracy. Let's go.

No Kings in Massachusetts. No Kings in America. We are out fighting to protect our democracy from dictators. Make your voice heard and vote this November.

Medicare for All. Affordable housing. Voting rights. This November, we need to secure a progressive majority and fight for working people across the country.

Our workers—from UFCW 1445 and across the Commonwealth, deserve a voice to build their power. Every day on the Senate floor, that's what I'm fighting to protect.

We need to get private equity out of our health care, our housing, and our lives. Because profit should never come before people.

We need a clean energy revolution across the Commonwealth and the country to create jobs, lower costs, and ensure a more livable future for all.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. It is essential that we commit to funding cancer research and ensure that affordable, quality health care is made accessible—because everyone is entitled to life-saving cancer treatment. We’re in this fight together.

We passed the Inflation Reduction Act and unleashed clean energy all across the country. Trump and MAGA Republicans are attacking our progress and setting us back years. No more. We need to win in November to restore these programs and build a better future.

Donald Trump and his Administration are turning the presidency into an all-you-can-eat corruption buffet. Elected officials shouldn’t use public office as a tool for personal gain—we need to take back the majority this November and end Trump’s corruption.

Working people are struggling under rising housing costs, out of control energy prices, and unaffordable health care. We are in the midst of an affordability crisis—we need to make this country work for everyone across the nation.

Massachusetts residents should have a say in what goes on in their communities—especially when it comes to projects like Amazon's proposed Westborough drone delivery program. I'm calling on Amazon and the FAA to conduct a thorough review of this proposal.

Last year, Republicans passed their Big Ugly Bill and cut billions in health care funding. Hundreds of thousands of Massachusetts residents are being impacted. It's unacceptable. We deserve a Senator who will work to restore all of the funding—and pass Medicare for All.

Home energy bills are out of control. Working families are struggling. We need a clean energy revolution to lower prices and secure a livable future for all generations.

CEO billionaires like Elon Musk want to buy our elections. No more. We need to get big money out of politics and return power to the people.

We need to tax the rich and ensure that everyone pays their fair share—instead of handing out tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy. It’s time to build a more just nation.
