Simply devastating news out of Jacksonville, FL. My heart breaks for the families who are grieving loved ones murdered through gun violence. I stand with determination and resolve with reform activists and won’t stop working for sensible gun control.

Senator John McCain dedicated his life to serving our country. His enduring legacy will be one rooted in service, courage and decency. I am keeping John and his family close to my heart tonight.

In my latest newsletter, I cheer the end of an @FHFA pilot program of questionable value, detail my meeting w/ @AIPAC, report on my visit to @dearbornstem in #Roxbury with @marty_walsh and @MassTreasury Deb Goldberg, & update my #BehindTheCurtain feature. http://bit.ly/2OZPAOK 

Senator John McCain has dedicated his life to serving our country – as a decorated member of the military who survived years as a prisoner of war - and in the halls of Congress. My thoughts are with him and his family during this very difficult time.

The internet has expanded opportunities for veterans--helping them to learn about health services, access education, and open small businesses. I support #NetNeutrality for the servicemembers and veterans who fight for us every day.

Congress must shield the Mueller investigation from White House interference, and must begin its own. I truly believe our democracy itself is at stake here. Country over politics!

Paul Manafort found guilty on 8 counts. Michael Cohen has pled guilty. Don't forget Michael Flynn, Rick Gates & George Papadopoulos. The evidence that @realDonaldTrump is surrounded by corruption is growing, now there's a direct link to Trump himself by his own personal attorney

Congratulations to the MBTA on receiving $20 million for Positive Train Control. This technology will save lives and make train travel safer across the United States.

In my latest newsletter: IG to review Quiet Skies; district meetings with the @YWCACambMA and Partners Healthcare @PartnersNews; a discussion about transit-oriented real estate development; and more additions to my #BehindTheCurtain feature. http://bit.ly/2BnNDKc 

So @realDonaldTrump has reportedly cancelled his parade. It's boggling he contemplated spending $92M for unnecessary display of military strength to assuage his ego. How could he find nearly $100m for a parade after proposing hundreds of billions in cuts to our most vulnerable.

A fair & free press is vital to an informed society, protected by our Constitution, not “the enemy of the people” as @realDonaldTrump dangerously proclaims. Thanks to @BostonGlobe for its leadership bringing many media voices together to defend the role of a #FreePress

John Brennan served his country 30+ yrs at highest levels of our national security agencies. It’s troubling security clearances are being dictated not by whose advice might keep us safe, but by who happens to have a policy disagreement with the President on any given day.
