Trump's bombing of Venezuela, kidnapping of Maduro & attempt to run the country are brazen violations of our Constitution & int'l law.
It will endanger US lives, destabilize the region, & cost us billions of dollars.
Congress must stop this endless war & hold Trump accountable.

I’m thinking of our survivor community this week as more Epstein files are circulated.
Every day that passes without transparency and accountability is another day we’re forced to face the cruelty of a country that protects predators over survivors.
Please know I will never stop fighting for you.

Boston is the safest major city in the country because of the hard work and collaboration of our public safety teams.
This morning, I was proud to stand beside the leaders who have made Boston a shining example for the rest of the country and report on the incredible work happening across our city.

Love a Mayoral AMA!
Answering questions now and through the day!
Because of a state law, residential property owners in Boston are projected to face a 13% tax spike next year.
Meanwhile, corporations will pay their lowest share of property taxes in 43 years.
I’m hosting an AMA on Reddit about our plan to protect homeowners and deliver residential tax relief.
