Donald Trump promised to lower prices and help families get ahead. But if you have student loan debt, his One Big, Ugly Bill is messing with your monthly payments.
For many borrowers, this will cost hundreds more each month.

This year’s Lowell Folk Festival was a resounding success!
Thank you to the Lowell Festival Foundation, the City of Lowell and all who supported the festival. Thank you to the volunteers and musicians. And most importantly, thank you to everyone who came out to support this great annual tradition!
We need answers. We need oversight. And most of all, we need to end the suffering.
a shady group with no prior aid experience that’s received $30 million in taxpayer funds.
The reports of GHF's handling of aid distribution are extremely alarming and could very well be contributing to the ongoing famine in Gaza.
In this moment, every dollar and every decision matters. That's why, in addition to compelling Netanyahu to act, I also joined 91 of my colleagues in demanding answers from the Trump administration about the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation —
The United States has an obligation to consider every option at our disposal to compel Prime Minister Netanyahu to immediately surge lifesaving aid into Gaza. Innocent civilians are suffering because of his prosecution of this war.
More than 2 million people, including thousands of children, are starving in Gaza. The humanitarian crisis is catastrophic, and the images have been horrifying to people around the globe.
While Donald Trump and Republicans celebrate a Big Ugly tax break for their billionaire donors, housing prices continue to surge.
Where’s Trump’s plan to help families afford a home? How are we going to build more housing?
As Chair of the Congressional Cambodia Caucus, I welcome the announcement of a ceasefire between Cambodia and Thailand following several days of violence along their border.
What a terrible decision. RFK Jr. is firing the panel responsible for determining how cancer screenings are covered.
This administration pledged to tackle terrible diseases like cancer. Instead, they're making it harder to identify and get treatment.
This is a massive win for our students!
After weeks of withholding federal education funding for Massachusetts, the Trump administration finally conceded that students, educators and important organizations like local Boys & Girls Clubs need these funds!
While parents and young adults continue facing rising costs fueled by Donald Trump’s reckless tariffs, they’re now going to be forced to pay even more in student loan debt thanks to Republicans’ One Big Ugly Bill.
All just to pay for another tax cut for Trump’s billionaire buddies.
Thanks to @massaudubon.org, Lowell Parks & Conservation Trust, and Mill City Grows, this local gem is a model for environmental conservation and education accessible to all in the Mill City.
I’m proud to have secured $1 million in federal funding to help protect and grow Pawtucket Farm Wildlife Sanctuary for future generations.
Donald Trump promised to lower our national debt. Instead, he passed a law to increase it by $3.4 TRILLION.
Promises made, promises broken.
35 years ago today, the Americans with Disabilities Act was signed into law, opening doors for millions of Americans with disabilities.
That progress must continue. We should be expanding, not cutting, programs like Medicaid that help people with disabilities live full, independent lives.
IVF gave my husband and I the best gifts we could ask for, our two incredible daughters.
Everyone deserves the chance to build a family on their own terms. That’s why I’ll always fight to protect access to reproductive care.
Donald Trump is holding $87 MILLION in federal funds for Massachusetts schools hostage.
Our students shouldn’t be pawns in Trump’s political games.
The Lowell Folk Festival is going to be a weekend full of great music, delicious food and good people!
With more than 150,000 people expected to visit the Mill City for this one-of-a-kind experience, make sure you know before you go!
