When the rules aren’t working—we change them. To protect the vulnerable. Pass Medicare for All. Abolish ICE. This is our fight. Our time is now.

Once again, an American has been viciously assaulted by Trump’s ICE thugs. We can’t keep funding this terror. Abolish ICE now.

High-quality health care is a human right. We need to restore the research funding Trump cut and build a brighter future for all.

Donald Trump is using the presidency to enrich himself and his Republican cronies. No more. We need to get money out of politics and protect the presidency from Trump corruption.

Working families are already struggling to get by—and in the middle of an affordability crisis, no one should have to worry about affording their home. We need to create affordable, accessible housing for all.

.@GIFFORDS_org and @GabbyGiffords have been on the front lines of the fight to end gun violence in our country—and to pass true, commonsense gun safety laws. I'm honored to receive their endorsement and continue this work together.

Senator @EdMarkey has never wavered in the fight against gun violence and his mission to save lives. I’ve seen his commitment to serving everyday Bay Staters firsthand when we served in Congress together, and I’ve seen it as he stands strong against the gun lobby and their dangerous agenda in the Senate. I’m proud to endorse him as he runs for reelection.

In January, our first order of business is to restore everything—cuts to healthcare, research, clean energy projects—everything we need to build a better, brighter nation for all Americans.

Our workers—from UFCW 1445 and across the Commonwealth, deserve a voice to build their power. Every day on the Senate floor, that's what I'm fighting to protect.

We need to get private equity out of our health care, our housing, and our lives. Because profit should never come before people.

October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. It is essential that we commit to funding cancer research and ensure that affordable, quality health care is made accessible—because everyone is entitled to life-saving cancer treatment. We’re in this fight together.

The workers of the MBTU build our Commonwealth every day—from our bridges to our clean energy projects. I'm proud to earn their endorsement and ready to fight for a better future for all working people.

“Senator Ed Markey is a fighter for working-class people who doesn't just talk about supporting unions – he delivers,” said Frank Callahan, President of the Massachusetts Building Trades Unions. “He helped bring Vineyard Wind 1 to Massachusetts which was built under a Project Labor Agreement that put union members to work. He also helped secure federal funding for the $1.2 billion North Station Drawbridge project our trades men and women are excited to work on. Senator Markey knows that investing in Massachusetts means investing in the workers who build it.”

We passed the Inflation Reduction Act and unleashed clean energy all across the country. Trump and MAGA Republicans are attacking our progress and setting us back years. No more. We need to win in November to restore these programs and build a better future.

Donald Trump and his Administration are turning the presidency into an all-you-can-eat corruption buffet. Elected officials shouldn’t use public office as a tool for personal gain—we need to take back the majority this November and end Trump’s corruption.

Massachusetts residents should have a say in what goes on in their communities—especially when it comes to projects like Amazon's proposed Westborough drone delivery program. I'm calling on Amazon and the FAA to conduct a thorough review of this proposal.
