Trump is putting the planet and future generations at risk for the short-term profits of his fossil fuel executive friends.

Congratulations to Vermont Green on their Round of 16 victory against FC Motown. They remain undefeated. Vermont is a soccer state! I appreciated the opportunity to say hello on Sunday and wish the team well.

Undocumented immigrants often do the most difficult, dangerous & underpaid jobs in the US. They pick crops, work in meatpacking plants, nursing homes & childcare centers. Many DIED as essential workers during COVID. We need comprehensive immigration reform, not mass deportations.

Today we forced Trump to release $1.3 billion for more than 10,000 summer & afterschool programs helping 1.4 million students. It's not enough. He's still illegally withholding $5.5 billion more from schools. Congress passed it. The president signed it. Trump must release it.

Fenway Park is an iconic American institution, and it’s the workers there that make every Red Sox game special. The team is extremely profitable. They should treat their employees with respect, pay them decent wages and negotiate a fair contract with the union.

Like all authoritarians, Trump doesn’t like criticism or objective reporting. He just wants flattery. That’s why he wants to defund NPR and PBS. We need media in this country that is not owned by billionaires and corporate interests. I will vote to support public broadcasting.

Israel’s far right tried to expel Ayman Odeh, an Arab Israeli opposition leader, from the Knesset because of his opposition to Netanyahu’s war. Today, they failed. If Israel is going to be considered a democracy, it cannot expel members of parliament for their political views.

My colleagues and I strongly condemn the effort to expel MK Ayman Odeh from the Israeli Knesset, which is a direct response to Odeh’s brave calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. If Israel is going to call itself a democracy, it must tolerate peaceful dissent.
