Trump's immigration crackdown is also about stealing the 2026 election. Trump and MAGA Republicans know they can't win at the ballot box, so they are setting the stage to deploy Trump's private army of ICE thugs against American voters. We must protect our elections.
Breaking: The White House press secretary just said she "can't guarantee" that ICE won't be around polling locations in November.
Oil and natural gas are expensive—and dirty—ways to power our grid. The solution isn’t to get more dependent on expensive power—it’s for Trump and MAGA Republicans to stop blocking cheap, clean energy and stop raising prices by exporting gas abroad.
Screenshot of headline that reads "Letters to the Editor. Senator Edward J. Markey: What's really keeping energy bills high." Full text of article linked in reply.
My constituent, Juan David’s habeas petition was denied yesterday. If he is removed from the United States, it will erase all avenues for protection. ICE must allow more time for his T visa relief process to be fully adjudicated.
The Trump administration wants to roll back the fuel economy standards that have saved Americans millions of dollars at the pump. We’re calling on Secretary Duffy to quit caving to the fossil fuel industry and keep the public’s gas pump and health costs down.

Orwellian surveillance tools have no place in a democracy. That is why I introduced the ICE Out of Our Faces Act—to stop ICE and CBP from using dangerous and discriminatory facial recognition technologies. This must end now.
Photo of Senators Markey, Merkley, and Rep. Jayapal behind a podium. Podium sign reads "end ICE and CBP facial recognition now."
President Trump has said he wants to reduce nuclear arsenals. Sticking with New START limits and seeking a new treaty is the best way to do that. Trump does not want to be the president that started a new, dangerous and expensive arms race with Russia and China.
Screenshot of headline that reads "Scoop: U.S. and Russia agree to observe New START nuclear pact after expiration." Full text linked in reply.
Rosa Parks was a trailblazing organizer whose contributions to the Civil Rights movement are innumerable. On her birthday, we honor her legacy, her bravery, and her commitment to justice for all.
Autonomous vehicle companies say their cars can do it all. But AVs still rely on remote human beings to navigate dangerous driving situations. We know nothing about who these people are, where they are, or how often they’re telling the AV what to do. I’m demanding answers.
Screenshot of letter, full text linked in reply.
I am calling on @icegov.bsky.social Director Todd Lyons to immediately confirm or deny the existence of a “domestic terrorist” database. If true, you’re violating the Constitution. If not, maybe talk to your “border czar” to get your stories straight. This isn’t a game–it’s the Constitution.

Black history is American history. During Black History Month, we celebrate and honor the history and legacy of Black Americans and their diverse, vibrant communities. While Trump censors, rewrites, and erases history, we will continue to speak the truth and fight for justice.
I am relieved that a federal judge has blocked the Trump administration’s illegal attempts to end temporary protected status for Haitians. We won’t stop fighting for a future where all our neighbors are protected. www.bostonglobe.com/2026/02/02/n...
