Congress must stand up for Epstein’s victims, not protect his rich and powerful friends. @pressley.house.gov is demanding a public Oversight hearing to give these survivors the opportunity to share their stories with the American people.
🚨I'm leading @oversightdemocrats.house.gov calling for a hearing to let survivors of Epstein's abuse testify before Congress. For those who wish to speak up, we cannot meet their courage with inaction. This is crucial to getting the healing, transparency & accountability survivors deserve.

60 years ago, after generations organized, marched & bled, the Voting Rights Act was signed into law. Now, Republicans in Texas & nationwide are carrying out an undemocratic assault on the sacred right to vote. We must keep working to protect & expand access to the ballot box.
Donald Trump promised to make IVF available to all. That was a bold-faced lie. Instead, he's ripping away healthcare from millions and turning his back on people who want to grow their families.
Donald Trump‘s White House is not pursuing a campaign promise to mandate health insurance pay for in vitro fertilization (IVF), even though he pledged to do so multiple times on the 2024 campaign trail.
BREAKING: The Oversight Committee has officially issued the Epstein Files subpoena we helped pass. The subpoena is clear and airtight: the Trump DOJ must release the files by August 19. As a survivor, I'll never stop fighting for healing, transparency, and accountability.
Abortion care is essential healthcare. Thank you to the folks at Intersections of Our Lives for sharing their deeply personal stories and for honoring me with their Champion Award. I'm so grateful for your partnership in the movement for reproductive justice.

This was another shameful attempt at erasing history by the twice-impeached occupant of the White House. The Smithsonian should NOT be caving to appease Trump's fragile ego. And Trump should take his grubby little hands off our Smithsonian museums.
The Smithsonian said it will restore information about President Trump’s two impeachments to an exhibit “in the coming weeks.” The Washington Post had previously reported that in July, the museum removed a placard describing Trump's impeachments.
Let me get this straight: —First Trump tanks the economy. —The data confirms that he's tanking the economy. —Then Trump fires the nonpartisan official who put out that data so he can hide the fact that he's tanking the economy. This is what dictators with fragile egos do.
Breaking News: President Trump moved to fire the official in charge of jobs data, claiming, without evidence, that labor numbers were being “manipulated.”
During Black August we honor Black freedom fighters & continue their work for our collective liberation. That includes defending Diversity, Equity & Inclusion to ensure opportunities for all of us. And it means advancing an affirmative vision for a more just America where everyone can thrive.

60 years ago, Medicaid & Medicare were signed into law, allowing folks in the #MA7 & nationwide to access high-quality, affordable healthcare. With Republicans making the largest cuts to healthcare in our history, I'll keep fighting to protect & expand these lifesaving programs.
President Lyndon B. Johnson signs legislation establishing the Medicare and Medicaid programs 60 years ago.
The Trump Administration is making it easier for polluters to pollute our communities and destroy our planet.   This is dangerous and shameful.   They are literally putting the profits of big corporations over the health and wellbeing of our people and our planet.
Breaking News: The EPA is planning to revoke the scientific determination that underpins the government’s legal authority to combat climate change. The agency’s administrator said the move would be “the largest deregulatory action in the history of America.”
With Republicans banning books nationwide, I'm grateful for local bookstores preserving underrepresented voices in literature. The freedom to pursue boundless knowledge must remain just that: a freedom. Thank you to @allshewrotebks.bsky.social in Somerville for letting me drop by.

Rep. Pressley, wearing a black dress, smiles as she checks out a book. A woman’s hand reaches out for her book across the check out counter. Behind them is the bookstore, filled with colorful art and books.
Fare free transit is an economic, racial, & climate justice issue, and it's high time we invest in public transit as the public good that it is. I'm reintroducing the Freedom to Move Act with @markey.senate.gov to close transit equity gaps and make our communities more connected.
