Trump’s cruel attempt to withhold funding for our Massachusetts schools is a disgrace. I'll continue to work with our state & local partners & use every tool we have to stand in the gap & fight for our students. Public education is essential & our educators, students & families deserve resources.

Federal money for summer programs, mental health, classroom supplies and more in Massachusetts schools is being withheld by the Trump administration. Federal officials say it is part of an ongoing review: https://www.wcvb.com/article/healey-trump-108m-school-funding-withheld-massachusetts/65317114

Nations are not just governments & regimes—they're people. Mothers, sons, loved ones whose stories echo our own. From Boston to the Middle East, our destinies are tied. We must press for peace, diplomacy, & our shared humanity.

Trump's attacks on Planned Parenthood are dangerous and would rip basic healthcare away from millions. This ruling is encouraging, but our fight is far from over.

A tweet that reads: BREAKING: A federal judge just blocked the "big beautiful bill's" provision to defund Planned Parenthood.

Supreme Court allows Trump to move forward with plans for mass firings, reorganization of the federal government

The Supreme Court is allowing President Donald Trump to move forward with an executive order mandating a restructure of federal agencies and mass layoffs of workers.

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

That the Supreme Court would give Trump a green light to continue firing federal workers is shameful. These dedicated employees do essential, lifesaving work that keep us safe and our government functional. I'll keep pushing until every federal worker can continue their work.

I was a congressional aide for 16 years before being elected to Congress. And in that time, I learned the importance of creating and taking up space. I recently joined the Congressional Black Associates and told our dedicated Black Hill staffers: take up space, you all belong everywhere.

Heartbroken for everyone impacted by the catastrophic flooding in Texas, including those who've lost & are still searching for loved ones. And I'm grateful for the work of our dedicated first responders. My team and I stand ready to support any impacted families from the #MA7.

To have known Sarah-Ann was to love her, and I’m grateful for her family, @mayorwu.boston.gov, @bpl.boston.gov, & for those who advocated for this library renaming as a powerful tribute to her mark on our home. May her legacy be forever honored in Roxbury.

I'm one of the 7 million people in America living with alopecia. In Congress, I'm fighting for bold investments in research, to combat stigma and bullying, and medical coverage to help us along our journey.

Happy Disability Pride Month! I'll never stop legislating to build a more just, accessible America where people with disabilities are treated with respect and dignity. Because disability rights are human rights.

Wishing everyone a safe and happy Fourth of July! Let’s celebrate Independence Day by recommitting to the Work of building a more just, equitable America.

I remain yours in service to every family who calls the #MA7 home, & I will never stop fighting for you.

Republicans have passed a bill that will be a death sentence—denying millions medical care, denying children food, & violently deporting immigrant families to destabilized countries. This is unforgivable.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley holds a sign that reads: No Cuts. No Cages. Protect Families.

Still here, fighting for every family that calls our district home.

It's 1am and Republicans are struggling to pass their Big, Ugly Bill that would harm millions of families. Their cruelty, chaos, and dysfunction are keeping the American people in limbo. Democrats are ready to reject this shameful bill and we must keep the pressure up.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govJul 2(source)

Republicans claim to be the party of God, but I can't find a psalm that says "Thou shalt make people poorer, hungrier, and sicker.” And that's exactly what their Big, Ugly Bill would do. We'll continue to resist, obstruct, and use every tool to stop it in its tracks.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govJul 2(source)

I rose on the House floor to try to prevent Republicans from destroying Medicaid and SNAP in Trump's Big, Ugly Bill. They won't even consider it. The cruelty is the point.

Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley@pressley.house.govJul 2(source)

— $1,400 average increase in premiums for people covered by the ACA in #MA7 — $290 yearly increase in energy bills Republicans need to do right by their constituents and reject this shameful bill.
