Happy to share that an agreement has been reached to expand protections for reproductive & gender-affirming care. This bill protects patients and providers in MA, enhances access to abortion care, and ensures these care decisions are made by a patient & their provider.

While not shocking, today's decision by the Supreme Court to strike down Roe v. Wade is completely devastating and marks one of the darkest days in the history of our government. When will the attacks on women end?

Today marks the 5th anniversary of Senator Ken Donnelly’s passing. He remains a voice in my heart for justice, kindness, and continuing the fight for our most vulnerable residents. He is a constant presence in my work as Senator and I still feel his loss as a dear friend.

As we celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth & numerous contributions made by Black Americans, that celebration should include Quock Walker's achievements. With the help of @ABCLexMa, @mciccolo & I filed legislation to cement Quock Walker's legacy in MA history. baystatebanner.com/2021/12/0…

Earlier, I spoke at the #MACOVIDOversight hearing and voiced my concerns & the concerns of my colleagues and constituents. I then asked @MassGovernor what I believe was a straightforward question...and received a not-so-straightforward response. Read my full statement below:

Folks — This will be the account for my official duties as President. At 12:01 PM on January 20th, it will become @POTUS. Until then, I'll be using @JoeBiden. And while you're here, follow @FLOTUSBiden @SenKamalaHarris @SecondGentleman and @Transition46.

As you honor my father today, please honor my mother, as well. She was the architect of the King Legacy and founder of @TheKingCenter, which she founded less than three months after Daddy died. Without #CorettaScottKing, there would be no #MLKDay. #MLK  #BelovedCommunity

“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of convenience and comfort, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.” Today, we remember & honor Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. who was crucial in the fight to advance civil rights in our nation. 1/3

Extremely disappointed that Gov Baker vetoed #NextGenerationRoadmap climate legislation yesterday. I stand with @KarenSpilka @BarrettSenate & the @MA_Senate in our commitment to refile & pass this bill it in its entirety ASAP. There is simply no time to waste. #mapoli

Republicans who say we can't impeach a president 10 days before an inauguration had no trouble confirming a Supreme Court justice 8 days before an election.
