Lisa's husband. Patrick and Molly's dad. Proud to serve the 2nd Congressional District of MA. Co-Chair of the Tom Lantos Human Rights Commission. Top Democrat on the House Rules Committee. Hunger is a political condition.
My wife Lisa spent Friday at El Buen Samaritano with her treasured friend Mari Gonzalez and her team as they assembled & distributed boxes of food for neighbors and families. The need has never been greater - nor has the sense of community.

An average family of four now pays over $1,000 each month for groceries. But Trump’s “main priority” is building his ballroom.
He doesn’t care about whether you have to put something back on the shelf after checking the price tag.

U.S. grocery prices have hit a record high — the monthly cost for a family of four is now $1,030.

Trump promised to bring manufacturing jobs back to America. Instead, 58 thousand manufacturing workers have lost their jobs in America since his stupid tariffs took effect.
Then he lies to our faces, saying the economy has never been better. Outrageous.

Trump can keep lying about the state of his disastrous economy, but Americans know the truth: it’s never been harder to afford basic needs.
Even Fox News agrees—Trump’s economy sucks.

Trump doesn’t shop at a supermarket. He’s never had to choose between paper or plastic. He learned what the word “affordability” meant just a few weeks ago.

This week, a bunch of our-of-touch billionaire CEOs dined with Trump and a Saudi prince who ordered the murder & dismemberment of a U.S. based journalist. There is something wrong with these people.

Grocery prices just hit a record high.
The unemployment rate is at its highest level in years.
58K manufacturing jobs gone because of Trump’s tariffs.
Crazy that the guy who bankrupted a casino doesn’t know how to fix the economy.

Credibility matters. Our word on human rights means nothing to China & others if we fail to practice what we preach here at home. America must lead by example, and show we stand for freedom of thought, religion, and conscience not just half way around the world—but half way down the block, too.

Today, on the International Day of the Child, I call on Netanyahu to release 16-year-old American Mohammed Ibrahim from detention. For 9 months, Mohammed has suffered illness, malnourishment & potentially torture—and his family is increasingly worried he may not survive.

Welcome to Donald Trump’s America—where it’s fine to be a Nazi or in the KKK.
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

Today, I heard from Israeli and Palestinian citizens about their efforts to co-create a safe, just, and shared future for their people. The U.S. government must be a partner in those efforts—not a yes-man to Netanyahu’s attempts to sabotage them.

Honored to attend the premiere of “Wisdom Happiness: A Heart-to-Heart with the Dalai Lama” with @nancypelosi69.bsky.social & Richard Gere. I’m forever inspired by the courage of His Holiness—and I'll always be an advocate for the human rights & dignity of the Tibetan people.

Jamal Khashoggi was a journalist—a human being with thoughts and feelings and a family and a future.
A Saudi prince didn’t like his viewpoint—so he had him brutally murdered and hacked to death.
Anyone who can put that aside for polite dinner conversation is sick in the head.

As I said on the floor today, releasing the Epstein Files is not about politics. It’s about the survivors—girls as young as 11 years old who were systematically abused by rich & powerful men.
Tonight, I stood in solidarity with them & all survivors of sexual assault nationwide.

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
