As the Congresswoman for the #MA7, it is not just my right but my responsibility to conduct oversight over ICE & their inhumane treatment of our immigrant neighbors. That’s why I just conducted an oversight visit at the Burlington ICE Facility to be an eye inside, ask questions, & demand answers.

I want to thank her attorney, Andrew Lattarulo, for his tireless and swift work to secure her release. I also want to thank @warren.senate.gov, @markey.senate.gov and @pressley.house.gov for standing up immediately and fighting alongside us.

Our abortion providers deliver essential reproductive health care to patients, even amid threats to their personal safety. On this 30th commemoration of Abortion Providers Appreciation Day, @hirono.senate.gov, @peters.senate.gov & I are honoring the courage & care of dedicated health providers.

This ruling is a lifeline for our Haitian neighbors who contribute so much to the #MA7 and nation. I continue to use every legislative tool to support Haitian community members, including pushing for a vote to extend TPS for Haiti and save lives.

For now, the ruling shields some 45,000 Haitians living in Massachusetts from deportation.

And with Trump's chaotic financial policies spiraling the labor market, we need to be fiercely advocating for women entrepreneurs.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 9(source)

For too long, women-owned businesses have been underestimated & under-resourced. That’s why the work of the Association of Women's Business Centers has been so instrumental.

I'm grateful for our Boston-based Black & brown creators. I've always been a firm believer that art & politics are deeply interconnected. And that's because our creators have the power to help uplift the issues we fight for, why justice matters, spark empathy & more.

Emmanuel Damas' death was entirely preventable. He died from sepsis. That started as a tooth infection while under ICE detainment. I’m urging DHS for a full investigation into his passing, and demanding proper medical care for all who remain behind the walls of these inhumane detention centers.

Sojourner Truth's fearless, courageous, & visionary spirit lives through our work. I was proud to moderate a Sojourner Truth Legacy Project panel of Black women to engage on issues like the pushout of Black women from the workforce & how to harness our power to better our communities.

This news is damning evidence of Donald Trump's irresponsible & chaotic policies. He is shamefully harming our economy and as a result, working people are losing their jobs—especially Black women.

The Trump Administration has failed to provide an evacuation plan for American citizens abroad. That's why we're urging the State Department to take immediate action to support the evacuations of American citizens & provide protection for embassy personnel throughout the Middle East.

“There’s nothing you can do but just sit and pray and hope nothing happens,” said Hassan Mourad, who arrived in Beirut last week on business.

When a nation loses care & concern for children, a nation becomes irredeemable. Small men wage endless wars because they are looking to profit, while it costs innocent lives. We will not tolerate Trump's callous disregard for human life. The war in Iran must come to an end NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

I just voted YES on the War Powers Resolution because we must stop Trump’s war in Iran. Only Congress can authorize a war. Trump is rogue and reckless. He is acting with complete disregard for the lives of our service members and Iranian civilians and he must be stopped.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

Goodbye and good riddance. But don’t take the bait. Firing Noem alone won’t halt Trump’s campaign of terror. The atrocities happening by ICE behind the walls of detention facilities and in broad daylight have proven that ICE cannot be reformed. Abolish ICE NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

And there must be accountability for the killing of Emmanuel—it’s what his loved ones & community deserve. I won’t stop pushing for answers & accountability.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

He pleaded for access to necessary medical care for his toothache, a basic human right, and was denied. This rogue agency is killing our neighbors—behind the walls of detention centers & in broad daylight. ICE cannot be reformed, it must be abolished.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

Horrified by the death of our Massachusetts neighbor Emmanuel Damas in ICE custody. He was denied medical care for months. I’m sending his family my deepest condolences. A family who has been robbed of their brother & son. Emmanuel is at least the tenth person to die in ICE custody this year.

The unemployment rate is rising & the public deserves to know.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govMar 5(source)

On @dol.gov'sbirthday, I'm introducing the Better Labor Statistics Act to ensure transparent & detailed unemployment data is published every month. We cannot allow Trump to hide economic data just because he doesn’t like what it says about his policies.
