As a former Congressional scheduler, I know the essential role schedulers play in keeping Congress running. So it was a joy to meet with several of them and share my experiences and advice. Thank you to Lona, my Director of Scheduling, and our scheduler tribe for everything you do!

Transgender people deserve the same chance to thrive and live fulfilling lives as everyone else. Shame on Republicans for trying to strip away healthcare from vulnerable children. And shame on anyone who votes to deny care to families trying to do right by their kids.

From Massachusetts to Minnesota, our Somali communities are strong and vibrant. And no amount of hate from the occupant of the White House will change that. Proud to stand in solidarity with our Somali siblings in Boston and let them know we’ve got their back.

Survivors deserve so much better.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 20(source)

Black unemployment is still soaring—a crisis for our communities and a red flag for the health of our economy. @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social and I are requesting the Federal Reserve take action and deliver an urgent briefing to the Congressional Black Caucus about their efforts.

Reps. Pressley, Clarke demand 'immediate action' to address Black unemployment 'crisis' in letter to Fed chair

EXCLUSIVE: U.S. congresswomen demand that the Federal Reserve Board confront economic disparities hurting Black households.

Trump thinks complying with the law means releasing entirely redacted Epstein files like this. This is a brazen cover up and deeply disrespectful to survivors. Pam Bondi must release ALL the files NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 19(source)

All legal options are on the table to force the release and hold predators accountable.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 19(source)

Trump is violating federal law by blocking the release of the Epstein files—denying survivors the accountability they deserve. By defying our subpoena & now Congress itself, this White House continues to shield powerful abusers and their enablers.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley holds a sign that reads: Stop Protecting Pedophiles.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 19(source)

Congress mandated that Trump's DOJ release all the Epstein files by TODAY. They must comply. Survivors have waited far too long for the accountability they deserve.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 19(source)

We have the votes to extend the ACA subsidies and save healthcare for our constituents TODAY. But Republicans would rather send Congress home, attack abortion care, & let premiums skyrocket. The shame and sham of it all. Speaker Johnson must bring this bill to the floor NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 18(source)

Healthcare is a human right. Speaker Mike Johnson, the House is ready to vote to extend the ACA subsidies and save healthcare for millions. Let’s get it done NOW — no games, no delays.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 17(source)

🚨 BREAKING: We now have 218 signatures to force a vote to extend the ACA subsidies for 3 years. Healthcare is a human right. Speaker Johnson must bring this to a vote NOW.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 17(source)

Today, I reviewed some of the classified Epstein files. They were disturbing & hard to review—but even harder for survivors to have experienced. The DOJ must follow the law & release the files, with protections for survivors. Our march towards healing, transparency, & accountability continues.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 16(source)

Shameful. Unemployment is now the highest it’s been since 2021. And Black women's unemployment is at 7.1% compared to 4.6% overall. This is a five-alarm fire for Black women, Black families, & Black futures—& the broader economy. The Federal Reserve must address this crisis NOW.

Presidential clemency should be used to advance justice. That's why I'm calling on Trump's pardon czar to prioritize clemency for people disproportionately harmed by mass incarceration, including Black, brown, low-income, LGBTQ+, and disabled folks.

A letter from Rep. Ayanna Pressley to Trump’s “pardon czar” urging her to prioritize clemency for people who have been disproportionately harmed by mass incarceration.
