Nothing is more important than fueling our kids’ dreams and that’s exactly what Boston Arts Academy does every single day! The arts are essential to helping students not just get to school, but succeed in school. I’m incredibly grateful to support and help celebrate the Academy’s 30th anniversary!

I got to see and cheer on some incredible young people pursuing their creative dreams at BTO Boston’s Creative Youth Development Program. And let me say — nothing can stop them (not even some rain!☔️)

All our young people should feel empowered to learn and discover books that inspire them. 📚 That’s why Governor Healey signed the Freedom to Read law – protecting our libraries, supporting educations, and keeping book bans out of Massachusetts.

We’re working to bring down housing costs to keep people in Massachusetts. By expanding homebuyer assistance and supporting other tools that lower costs, we are helping more young people take the first step toward buying a home of their own.

We’re working every day to deliver the resources our communities need to run excellent schools, fix our roads and bridges, support our local businesses and make sure our residents are healthy.

ICE is not making anyone safer and law-abiding residents are living in fear of sending their kids to school, going to doctor’s appointments or attending church. Today, we took nation-leading action to keep people safe. Enough is enough.

Fact: For the last three decades, the hepatitis B vaccine has reduced pediatric infection rates by 99% nationwide. No matter what RFK Jr. is doing in Washington, here in Massachusetts we're going to follow the science and make sure that Massachusetts residents have access to lifesaving vaccines.

Episode 3! I had the absolute pleasure of interviewing retirees Mark and Linda inside their beautiful Lexington ADU. This newly built space allows them to be close to their daughter and grandchildren while still giving everyone their own space.

Contrary to the conspiracy theories RFK Jr. is peddling on the CDC’s website, in Massachusetts we believe in science. Vaccines are safe, effective and lifesaving. They are the backbone of modern disease prevention and the well-being of our communities.

Unless the Trump Administration releases funds, federal food assistance will run out. No state can backfill to make up for what will be lost. In Massachusetts, we look out for each other. Please consider donating to the United Response Fund or your local food pantry.
