Reminder that there is one week left to submit your artwork for the 2025 Congressional Art Competition!
Deeply saddened by the passing of Pope Francis. The Holy Father was a man of peace and reconciliation who brought comfort to many who had been pushed to the margins of our society. We have been blessed by his example, may he remain in our prayers.
Sincere thanks to Father Bob Casey, Father Peter Shirripa and Monsignor Liam Bergin. Special Thanks to Rich Davies, Ed Frenni, Tom Butler Jr., and the Air Traffic Controllers at Logan Airport for diverting all flights during Mass. Heavenly. 🙏
Happy to join my friends and neighbors for Sunrise Easter Sunday Service at 5:55AM at Castle Island this morning!
Lots of very happy kids. Special thanks to Frankie Miller (aka Easter Bunny) and the volunteers from the SB Boys and Girls Club and from the Devine Recovery Center and The Answer House, giving back. Wishing everyone a happy Easter Weekend!
Enjoyed a beautiful day at the Castle Island Easter Egg hunt in South Boston today, sponsored by my friends and colleagues State Rep. David Biele, State Senator Nick Collins and the Easter Bunny.
This state of the art sports and artistic center will have a major impact on the young people in our community for generations to come. We are grateful to the generous donors and the love that Bill and Denise Richard have shown to the children of our City- all in memory of their son, Martin Richard.
Governor Maura Healy, Senator Ed Markey, Mayor Wu and many colleagues in government to celebrate the groundbreaking of “The Fieldhouse Plus” a transformative recreational and arts facility that will provide kids and families access to a multitude of enrichment programs.
Today was a Huge day for the Boys and Girls Club of Dorchester, the Martin Richard Foundation, Bill and Denise Richard and BGCD Director Bob Scannell as I joined
🚨Please join us for a rally on Saturday, April 26th to Fight for the Working Class!🚨
As a member of the House Litigation Working Group, we will once again bring legal action to successfully restore this funding.
All of these areas have experienced severe weather events so maintaining basic protections and resiliency for parks, homes and businesses will prevent further erosion and costlier recovery efforts in the future.
President Trump just unlawfully canceled $90 million in Congressionally-approved federal disaster prevention aid for Massachusetts, including $35 million in funding for Moakley Park in South Boston, Tenean Beach in Dorchester as well as hard-hit areas in the Town of Hull and the City of Brockton.
In Boston, April 15th is a day when families, friends, and neighbors come together to participate in acts of kindness and community engagement in remembrance of those who lost their lives on that tragic day. #BostonStrong
On One Boston Day, we remember the victims, survivors, and first responders of the horrific terrorist attack at the Boston Marathon twelve years ago today.
Reposted byCongressman Stephen F. Lynch
Oversight Democrats are holding Elon Musk accountable on every front.
Hear from @repshontelbrown.bsky.social, @lynch.house.gov, and @repemilyrandall.bsky.social on the five new investigations our Committee launched into Musk’s rampant conflicts of interest just this week.
Rather than working to protect American consumers and market integrity, my Republican colleagues are determined to push reckless crypto legislation that would enrich the crypto bros and the Trump family’s crypto business, despite clear conflicts of interest.
Our country is facing historic inflation, and President Trump’s reckless, on-again, off-again tariffs are sending our markets into a tailspin.
