should not take a lecture on democracy from an election denier. Under oath in my questioning, former Secretary Mike Pompeo refused to assert that the 2020 election was "free and fair".
America cannot defend democracy overseas if we do not protect it at home.
The United States & Israel remain ironclad in their shared commitment to the defeat of Hamas.
That defeat cannot solely be won by war. It must be earned through governance — immediate & practical steps by the Israeli War Cabinet to build an alternative to Hamas in Gaza.
The Showing Up for Students Act, which I co-sponsored today with
@repDanGoldman
, will give the Department of Education the resources it needs to investigate & hold accountable universities failing their Jewish & Israeli students.

, we remember the lives of the six million Jews killed in the Holocaust.
With the dangerous rise in antisemitism we have seen globally in recent weeks, we must condemn this hate with moral clarity and force of purpose.

I recently met with MIT students building tech for Special Operations. They were smart, sophisticated, and patriotic.
Most students at these universities are studying, not screaming — and they deserve the learning environment they paid for.
Today at Harvard Chabad we had the pleasure of welcoming Congressman

Jake Auchincloss and State Senator
@BeccaRauschMA
Rebecca Rausch for an important conversation with students and faculty.
We deeply appreciate their leadership and dedication to combat the…
The unconstitutional Antisemitism Awareness Act would not improve the unacceptable situation on many campuses today. The moment demands better leadership at these universities, not restricting academic freedom.
Antisemitic incidents on campuses are surging. Administrators & faculty must meet their federal Title VI obligation to ensure Jewish & Israeli students have a suitable learning environment.
Harvard, MIT, Tufts, and UMass Amherst received an 'F' from the

on campus antisemitism.
And that was before student protesters ran roughshod over time, place, and manner regulations to harass and intimidate Jewish and Israeli students.
Students should get back to class…
Congratulations to Elaine Yu for winning the 2024 Massachusetts 4th District Congressional Art Competition. Elaine is a 10th grader from Sharon, and her piece, Hold On, will be displayed in the US Capitol for the next year.
Congratulations to Minjun Sean Choi, a 9th grader from…
As chair of a local transportation committee and member of a federal one, I've seen Monica's work up close for almost a decade. She's brilliant. America's car-centric transportation policy is bad for cities & towns, bad for budgets, and bad for the environment. The Secretary is…
Speaker Johnson must put country before party. If he stands up to MAGA extremists and supports our allies, Democrats will make sure that politics stops at the water's edge.
A government that can lock down its population overnight is capable of stopping fentanyl precursor manufacturers from breaking domestic and international laws. Instead, the Chinese Communist Party subsidizes them. The US fentanyl crisis is state-sponsored poisoning of Americans…
If the response to this weekend’s attack is focused purely on Iran, it would miss the geopolitical reality that Iran, China, and Russia are inextricably linked in an axis working together to undermine freedom, democracy, and the rule of law.
US support for Israel’s security must be immediate & ironclad.
The president is doing the right thing.
Mr Speaker: your turn. Come back from Mar-a-Lago and put the Israel & Ukraine bill on the floor on Monday.
Working on a bill in Congress for that. Patients should not go without medicine because of steep out-of-pocket costs imposed by health insurance companies. You pay premiums so that when a doctor writes you a prescription, you can access that treatment without undue burden.…
Love spending hundreds of dollars a month on health insurance, only to then be told that my life-saving asthma inhaler isn’t covered. It will cost me $300. Yeah, no notes, America.
