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.

In his 2nd term, Trump has granted 1,700+ pardons & commutations. Instead of using clemency to address systemic injustices, Trump has used it to reward political allies, insurrectionists, & corporations. Meanwhile, the millions harmed by mass incarceration have been ignored.

NEWS: Today I released a new, first-of-its-kind report exposing Trump's Clemency Gap and how his pardons neglect those who need them most. The results are alarming, and shameful.

The Codman Square Health Center at Randolph High School is a commitment to the health & well-being of the Randolph community. I was proud to secure $1M in community project funding so families can access the care they need without leaving their community.

Chag Sameach, #MA7! Wishing a bright first night of Hanukkah to all! May these next eight nights be filled with peace, light, & joy.

To those observing the first night of Hanukkah, our family is thinking of yours & wishing you peace.

The horrific attack in Australia is a senseless reminder that we must root out antisemitism & all forms of hatred everywhere. I’m praying for the families impacted, our Jewish neighbors, & those in mourning.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 14(source)

I’m praying for the lives lost, those in critical condition, & the Brown University community. More innocent lives stolen due to senseless gun violence. It’s long overdue that we treat this gun violence epidemic as the public health crisis it is.

Brown University shooting: Manhunt underway after 2 killed, 8 wounded

Brown University was under lockdown Saturday following a suspected shooter on campus, officials said.

This investigation is yet another baseless attempt by Trump to undermine Boston’s success. In Boston, we are committed to working towards safe, affordable housing for all residents. I don’t expect the most lawless & corrupt President of our time to get that.

Over fifty years ago, the Justice Department was investigating the Trump family for discriminating against Black people in their real estate business. Now, the president's administration is accusing the city of Boston of housing discrimination against white people.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govDec 12(source)

AI is everywhere—and without civil rights protections, it can worsen the discrimination our communities already face. That's why Congress should pass my AI Civil Rights Act with @markey.senate.gov and @repyvetteclarke.bsky.social. We cannot allow AI innovation without AI protections.

Housing is stability, security, dignity, & a human right. I held an urgent roundtable to sound the alarm on how Trump's funding cuts to the Continuum of Care program & the delays in Section 8 payments are placing enormous strain in the #MA7.

I voted against Republicans’ $900 BILLION military spending bill. It blocks healthcare coverage for IVF, bans DEI initiatives, undermines military readiness, and expands ICE’s power to attack immigrants. The public doesn’t support this bill and neither do I.
