Authoritarianism is here. This is not business as usual. Trump is weaponizing the law to punish dissent and instill fear.
Thankful to have @massago.bsky.social testify in Washington about how Massachusetts is leading the charge against the Administration in the courts.
This is not satire. It's cruelty by literal design.
Three years after Dobbs, Massachusetts leads in defense of reproductive care and abortion access—but the fight continues. Anti-choice extremists want a national ban. We need federal protections for every person in every state.
All along the East Coast, residents are being asked to conserve energy during the extreme heat. Today is only going to be hotter.
The climate crisis is here and we need a grid that can handle it. That means better transmission planning and an independent FERC.
Almost all of Massachusetts is under an extreme heat warning today yet the Trump admin is attacking our ability to respond. Read more in my Extreme Weather, Extreme Cuts report: www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-r...
Pressure works. Republicans are balking in the face of the rural hospitals data I revealed last week. But this isn't enough. No cuts. No closures. That is the only acceptable path forward. www.politico.com/live-updates...
Verizon left toxic lead-covered cables in Massachusetts communities—now those cables are endangering workers and their families. Verizon must clean up its mess.
Proud to join @wyden.senate.gov and @aoc.bsky.social to demand answers about reports that Palantir is helping to build a “mega-database” on American citizens. It’s Orwellian and it’s unacceptable.
The Trump administration is out of control. This is not public safety. This is public intimidation.
The Trump administration’s expansion of invasive social media surveillance is a clear effort to chill speech and stifle dissent. I wrote to the Department of State and the Department of Homeland Security with @wyden.senate.gov to stop this government overreach.
"DON'T BLAME ME FOR SURGING OIL PRICES WHEN I DESTABILIZE THE MIDDLE EAST AND THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ."
My statement on U.S. Strikes on Iran Nuclear Facilities.
Republicans tried to eliminate the CFPB. Senator Warren and Senate Democrats stopped that from happening.
It’s simple: Democrats are fighting to hold big companies accountable and return money to consumers. Republicans are fighting to give tax breaks to billionaires.
Once again—Massachusetts will not be bullied and we will never stop fighting to protect our students. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/06/20/n...
SCOTUS just sided with polluters—again. 115 million people live in areas with dangerously high smog levels, yet this ruling weakens EPA’s ability to stop smog from crossing state lines.This will make Americans sicker. I will keep fighting for public health over corporate wealth.
Extreme heat is the deadliest extreme weather. Yet Trump’s USDA is cutting funding for tree planting programs that make our cities greener, cleaner, and cooler. Planting trees to help Americans combat the climate crisis and stay cool should be a no-brainer.
Donald Trump says his "Golden Dome" will keep us safe from a nuclear attack. All it will really do is make us poorer, less secure, and more isolated. It’s a gold-plated boondoggle that will enrich defense contractors and ignite a new nuclear arms race.
