ICYMI: My discharge petition to extend Haiti TPS has enough support to force a vote in the House. This is a huge win and brings us closer than ever to saving Haitian lives and delivering the protections they deserve. Let’s get it done!
A Boston Globe headline titled: Pressley will get vote on her legislation to restore Temporary Protected Status for Haitian migrants.
To survivors everywhere: I believe you. The shame was never yours to carry. Anyone who violates another person in this way is small and broken. They should be named, shamed, & held accountable for survivors everywhere.
When we affirm the brilliance, the beauty, and the voices of young girls, we are investing in a stronger and more just future for all of us. TY to the Boston Celtics Community and Shamrock Dreams for creating this beautiful space to uplift and empower young women and girls.

With an Administration attacking women every day, the state of women in America can feel grim. But the women who came before us wrote the blueprint for our survival—from trailblazing activists to the women who surround us. Read my @baystatebanner.bsky.social Women's History Month op-ed:
A Bay State Banner Women's History Month op-ed written by Rep. Ayanna Pressley titled: A love letter to the women who make us whole.
I'm grateful for immigration orgs like MIRA Coalition who are at the forefront of this fight against fascism. We won't stop agitating, litigating, & mobilizing against an agency that has gone rogue. TY for having me as your 2026 Spring into Action Conference keynote speaker.

My heart goes out to Mr. Damas’s family and friends and our Haitian and Dorchester communities. Everyone impacted deserves healing and accountability, and I won’t stop pushing for answers. It is what Emmanuel deserves.
It is with a heavy heart that we collectively honor the life of Emmanuel Damas today. To lose a father, son, brother, friend is a grief no person should have to bear, and certainly not under such horrific circumstances.
A photo of Emmanuel Damas.
BREAKING: After weeks of organizing, we have reached the majority necessary to force a vote to extend Haiti TPS. Thank you to our coalition and everyone fighting for this critical lifeline for the 350,000 Haitian nationals. Our neighbors are so deserving.
Instead of paying our dedicated TSA workers, Republicans would rather spend more money on ICE's campaign of terror & cruelty. I voted No. We must keep fighting to abolish ICE, end qualified immunity, and transform our immigration system to center the dignity & humanity of all.
Senate Republicans blocked a proposal that would've restored veterans' reproductive rights, including the right to an abortion in cases of rape or incest. Cruel & shameful. Our veterans should be met with respect & support—and that includes their right to vital reproductive care.
We lost our #MA7 neighbor Emmanuel Damas after he was denied medical care by ICE. He had a toothache, fell into a coma, & died of sepsis. His tragic death was wholly preventable. My heart goes out to his family, and I'll keep pushing for the accountability & healing they deserve.
The gender pay gap has widened for the second year in a row. And Trump & Republicans’ anti-women agenda are only deepening the harm. This #EqualPayDay, I'm fighting for policies like the ERA to close the pay gap, advance opportunity & build a just economy that works for all.
The lives lost at the hands of ICE agents in broad daylight & behind the walls of inhumane detention centers require full investigations. My DHS Use of Force Transparency Act with @congressmin.bsky.social would require all evidence be turned over to Congress & help the truth come to light.
Denying TSA workers their hard-earned paychecks. Sending untrained ICE agents to airports. What we're seeing unfolding isn't a contingency plan. It was ALWAYS Trump's plan to privatize & de-unionize TSA—just like Project 2025 demanded.
This UN resolution is an essential step in our fight for reparations & addressing the systemic oppression of Black people. Shame on the US Ambassador for voting against it. Justice delayed is justice denied, and we will not back down in our pursuit of reparatory justice.
ICYMI: Last night, Senate GOP blocked a critical vote that would have restored veterans’ reproductive health care access. Let’s be clear: this wasn’t procedure—it was a choice. A choice to deny veterans and their families protection. It’s wrong. It’s harmful. And veterans will feel the impact.
BREAKING: Democrats tried to overturn Trump's near-total abortion ban at the VA. Republicans blocked it. Republicans don't think veterans who are survivors of rape or incest deserve to get the abortion care they need. It's cruel—and I'll keep fighting back.
