Thank you to my partner, my friend, and the best Senator I could hope to be in Washington with: @elizabeth-warren.bsky.social . Proud to stand with you.

My opponent trades stocks of businesses that appear before the very committees on which he serves in Congress. I don’t trade stocks. I don’t take corporate PAC money. I don’t treat Congress like a personal self-enrichment fund. I stand up and fight for working families.

Standing up for human rights in America means standing up for human rights everywhere. In Iran. In Lebanon. In Gaza. Our nation must no longer be complicit in the horror of illegal senseless war. Slash the Pentagon budget and end these wars now.

I don’t trade stocks. I don’t take corporate PAC donations. I don’t take money from fossil fuel companies. I don’t treat public office as a personal self-enrichment fund. And I will NEVER sacrifice trans kids to win political points.

I know how important it is to fight to be on the right side of history. To take tough votes, and to be one of only a handful of members of Congress to stand up to leadership. Massachusetts, let’s stand on the right side of history. Together.

On my way to Worcester for the @massdems.bsky.social State Convention. Excited to come together with all of these incredible activists and organizers. See you soon Massachusetts Democrats!

The App Drivers Union fought for their rights. They won. And they’ve paved the way for workers across the nation.

This Memorial Day, I’m remembering the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation and its promise of freedom and democracy. And today, we remember our commitment: to honor and invest in the lives and wellbeing of service members and their families.

It’s been almost a year since DHS’s predator drone was circling above downtown Los Angeles and weapon using aerial surveillance against peaceful protesters. Since then, Republicans gave ICE another $140 billion. Not a penny more.

45 9

It’s no secret—Donald Trump wants $70 BILLION more for ICE so that he can station officers at polling places and suppress the vote of Black and Brown Americans.

101 45

I just left the Senate floor where we finally advanced the Iran War Powers Resolution. This must pass.

Donald Trump is stealing taxpayer money. And he's gifting it to Capitol rioters.

108 30

Trump just said skyrocketing gas prices are "peanuts."

46 18

Trump wants to use taxpayer dollars to bail out his insurrectionist friends. Corruption at its finest.

138 31

Join me for a weekend spent on the campaign trail—from Boston to the Merrimack Valley.

TPS holders are members of our families, workers and caregivers in our communities, and our friends. When we fight for TPS holders, we're fighting for a better future.

Clean energy solutions protect us from the climate crisis—and bail us out of the affordability crisis, too. (And Doug, that's not how solar works).

54 14

Trump's White House is full of liars and crooks. And they're trying to get you to believe the opposite of what your eyes, ears, and wallets are telling you.

79 22

Trump and his cabinet are taking billions from American taxpayers. And they're lying about it to your face.

57 13

Americans deserve clean and accessible green spaces—no matter their income, race, or background. I'm proud that in my hometown of Malden, we're building more projects like this, and fighting to bring environmental justice for all.

"I don't think about Americans' financial situations." - Donald Trump, President of the United States

From the highest court of the land, to Virginia, to Tennessee—we are watching an all out attack on the right to vote. I am going to do everything in my power to stop these attacks. We cannot be quiet.

Workers over billionaires.

43 9

The system is rigged. It's not working for the ordinary Americans who need it most. Instead, corporate interests and corrupt politicans benefit from working peoples' struggles. Tomorrow on May Day, we're saying no more. Workers over billionaires.

203 69

I sat down with members of @sbworkersunited.bsky.social to talk about their fight for a fair contract. We need to put baristas over billionaires and workers over wealth.

58 15

Today, SCOTUS must do what's right for TPS holders. Uphold the law, and protect the hardworking families who keep our communities and economy running.

47 11

In the age of AI, our top priority needs to be protecting American workers—not replacing them. Grateful to discuss this and more with Massachusetts Youth Democrats at our town hall this Saturday.

33 4

Everyone in our nation benefits from the work of TPS holders. SCOTUS must uphold the law and defend temporary protected status.

46 8

With more than 30,000 signatures collected, we're officially the first Democratic statewide campaign on the ballot. Grateful for the hard work of Team Markey organizers and volunteers across the commonwealth. We don't agonize, we ORGANIZE.

Calling Donald Trump a wannabe dictator—and his administration authoritarianism on steroids—isn’t a call for violence, it’s a statement of fact. The only one calling for violence in the United States is Donald Trump as he sends his ICE agents in to terrorize our communities.

230 63

Trump has gone scorched earth. He's killing our livelihoods. He's killing our democracy. And he's killing our planet. There's a long fight ahead of us. And in order to build the future we need, we must remove Trump from office.

163 46

Even Trump's cabinet isn't sure how long this illegal war will last—or the true cost for American families. This war must stop now.

63 19

This Earth Day, I'm celebrating the activists, organizers and movements who have been working for decades to give our Earth a chance. And in these difficult times, I'm steadfast in my hope that we're going to build a better future.

Brought you along for a wonderful Saturday with me: breakfast with the Democratic Committee in Wilmington and meet-and-greets in Worcester and Framingham. I'm glad to be in this fight with you.

66 3

Donald Trump is lying to you.

My father was a union leader. I grew up to be a United States Senator. I believe in the American Dream. But right now, the system is rigged in favor of CEO billionaires. We need to tax the rich and make that dream possible for everyone—not just the wealthy few.

111 19

This Tax Day, billionaires are getting richer while working people struggle to get by. We need to stop putting wealth over work and pass my Equal Tax Act now.

74 18

It's times like these that bring out the Massachusetts in me. We're in the fight of our lives. I'm down in DC, making the enemies you would make, and standing for the values you stand for every day.

70 7

We will not stand idly by while ICE terrorizes our neighbors and our communities. We will not stand by while this administration makes a mockery of our laws and Constitution. Abolish ICE now.

152 28

Right now, nurses across America are on the front lines, protecting immigrants and standing up for democracy. Great to see the Mass Nurses Association down in DC as we continue the fight against ICE and MAGA.

92 25

Our nation is at a moral crossroads. Trump asked Congress for over 1 trillion to fund the Department of Defense and his war of choice. To get it, MAGA Republicans want to defund childcare. Healthcare. Education. I won't stand for that.

187 54

Chaos and destruction are not the answer. We need diplomatic solutions–not a war criminal in the Oval Office.

172 40

What Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth were planning were war crimes. End of story. Congress must come back in session and impeach Donald Trump.

359 100

Impeachment. 25th Amendment. Donald Trump must be removed from office.

143 33

Across Massachusetts, local leaders are standing up for their constituents and fighting to make the Commonwealth better. I'm proud to have their support.

34 5

Donald Trump must be removed from office. Not only is he waging an illegal war—he’s threatening war crimes. To the members of our military: remember, you do not have to follow illegal orders.

Proud to have the support of so many dedicated local leaders who have helped shape our Commonwealth. I look forward to continuing to build on the progress we’ve begun together and delivering real results for communities across Massachusetts.

Grateful to be joined by so many leaders across our commonwealth as we fight for a better future for all.
