I’m thrilled to share our win for transparency in the State House! Until now it has been the broken link that severely limited pathways for people like you to advocate and fight for our voices to be heard and acted on in the State House.

TY to everyone who came out yesterday to stand in solidarity with labor from across MA. We must continue to push back against the Trump regime's unlawful mass deportation agenda. These ICE raids are cruel, disruptive, and designed to inflict terror on our immigrant neighbors.

Last week I met with Somerville-Cambridge Elder Services to discuss challenges facing older adults and people with disabilities. We discussed increased funding for at home care and how everyone, regardless of age, ability, or income, can thrive in the comfort of their homes.
