“Following weeks of advocacy from my office, the federal delegation, the American Postal Workers Union, and, most of all, from the community, it is great news that the USPS has reversed course on its decision to close the Shutesbury Post…

I will keep voting no on these budgets of cruelty and corruption and fight for American families to get the relief they need.

They’ll find billions to tear families apart but can’t find the funds to keep food on families’ kitchen tables.

It’s clear where they stand: they’ll give relief to criminals, but none to families.

Americans are struggling to afford gas, groceries, housing, and healthcare, but Republicans—at Trump’s bidding—found taxpayer dollars for lawless and reckless ICE agents.

Republicans voted last night under the cover of darkness to give a $70 billion blank check to Trump’s ICE thugs, placed no checks on the $1.8 billion slush fund for January 6th insurrectionists, and blocked every amendment that would lower…

TikTok USDS has also failed to explain what its second safeguard — retraining its content recommendation algorithm — means in any meaningful way or how such retraining will prevent algorithmic manipulation.

The first safeguard of the TikTok deal — source code review — raises three serious issues.

I plan to engage closely to ensure the FCC protects E-Rate, follows the law, and keeps students connected.

Although I share concerns about social media’s impact on our young people, it is important to remember that all screen time is not the same, and E-Rate already includes strong safeguards to protect students online.

I am worried that this FCC review of the program will result in new obstacles to connecting kids to the internet in schools and libraries across the country.

E-Rate is a cornerstone of our nation’s commitment to closing the digital divide.

It’s outrageous that many workers are still denied financial justice when they experience discrimination on the job while corporations reap record-high profits.

We look forward to working with you to ensure the next surface transportation bill delivers real benefits to the American traveler by protecting against politicization, supporting safety improvements, cutting costs, creating good jobs, and…

LGBTQ+ older Americans deserve the protections their neighbors are afforded. After decades of exclusion from and discrimination in health care settings, workplaces, and local communities, queer and trans elders should be able to age with…

I am concerned that your Administration is moving forward with plans to transfer plutonium to Oklo not because these proposals make sense for the United States, but because Oklo stands to benefit financially and Secretary Wright is acting…

For five decades, the United States has avoided the commercial use of plutonium and opposed the spread of technology to separate (“reprocess”) plutonium from used reactor fuel.

The DOL should not promulgate a rule under which workers may have their retirement savings used to underwrite a model of finance that actively exacerbates the affordability crisis in Massachusetts.

We are concerned that DOL is opening up Americans’ hard-earned retirement savings to risky private equity investment at a time when global private equity fundraising has been at its lowest level in a decade.

Given DHS’s record during the Trump administration of exploiting surveillance technologies, we are deeply concerned that smart glasses will be abused by this administration.

To the trans community: I am with you in this fight, I see you, and I love you.

Not Trump, not anyone, can erase trans people.

But the trans community is strong and resilient. They are fighting back, and I am with them every step of the way.

Since Day One of his administration, Donald Trump has relentlessly demonized transgender people to distract from his disastrous policy agenda.

We fought hard to ensure the FAA Reauthorization Act and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law included robust funding for airport infrastructure investments.
