Recent ATmosphere posts, sponsorships, and cosponsorships.
As a member of the House Litigation Working group, I will continue to work alongside my Democratic colleagues to fight against the Trump Administration’s unlawful actions and keep my constituents updated.
Thank you to my friend, @neguse.house.gov, for your leadership on this issue.
Today, I demanded that he refrain from placing our men and women in uniform in danger by complying with proper national security protocols and federal records preservation requirements.
Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent has confirmed that he participated in the non-secure Signal chat in which Trump officials openly discussed classified military information.
This #NationalNursesWeek, we recognize and celebrate the everyday heroes who provide exceptional and compassionate care for our veterans, seniors, children, and neighbors.
Thank you, Nurses!
President Trump’s blatant violation of ethics laws and exploitation of the Presidency to further his own financial gain cannot go unchecked.
I will continue to work with my Democratic colleagues to hold this Administration accountable.
Great to see Representative David Biele, Councilor Ed Flynn, Councilor Erin Murphy, and Councilor John Fitzgerald in strong support of the ILA.
Many thanks to Bernie O’Donnell, George McEvoy and my old friend Joe Picard for organizing a fantastic event and for being thoughtful and loyal advocates and stewards for the future of the Port of Boston.
It was a pleasure to join with the International Longshoremen’s Association this weekend to celebrate a hard-won 6 year contract with the Shipping Association.
Congratulations to Governor Maura Healey and IAFF President Edward Kelly - two powerful champions of our recovery community - on their well-deserved honors.
Had a wonderful evening at the Road to Recovery Gala last night, hosted by the Gavin Foundation. Thank you to Peter Barbuto, Willie Ostiguy, Brian Nee, Tom Tinlin, and the dedicated volunteers for organizing such a meaningful event.

When you put unqualified people in place, you can't expect them to be careful or do a good job.
@lynch.house.gov makes it clear: Oversight Democrats will continue to investigate this Administration’s recklessness with our national secrets.
Reposted byCongressman Stephen F. Lynch
Earlier this week, Republicans changed the rules and blocked several Democratic investigations into the Trump Administration.
That won’t stop @lynch.house.gov and Oversight Democrats from getting to the bottom of the Signal group chat classified information breach.
These breaches of classified information are not only unacceptable, they are dangerous. I call on members of the House Oversight Committee, regardless of party affiliation, to join me in demanding a full investigation to promote accountability in order to keep our sons and daughters in uniform safe.
Secretary Hegseth and the entire Trump Administration have demonstrated a disturbing lack of seriousness regarding our national security.
The safety of our military Servicemembers must always be our highest priority.
As a member of the House Litigation Working Group, we supported judicial challenges to these and other cuts to critical medial research, which recently blocked the Administration’s drastic funding cuts.
In the first 100 days of his Administration, President Trump has called for “massive cuts” to spending on medical and scientific research, including $1 Billion in cuts to the National Cancer Institute.
It was great to meet with Catie Fauvelle and Siobhan Ransford, advocates from the Susan G. Komen Foundation, today in Washington to discuss the importance of funding for breast cancer research and legislation to increase access for screening and early detection.
I am proud to once again cosponsor the #EqualityAct.
While President Trump tries to undermine the rights of LGBTQI+ people, I will continue to work with the @Equality.house.gov to codify nondiscrimination protections into federal law.
