Not an April Fool’s joke: Trump thinks he can ignore the Constitution and eat his cake, too. We aren’t fooled and we won’t let it happen. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/03/30/n...

Today we came together in Newton to tell Donald Trump and Elon Musk that Massachusetts won’t back down in the face of authoritarianism. We will resist.

We've all seen the footage of Rumeysa Ozturk's lawless abduction by ICE. This is authoritarianism. And we need to call it out together:

This is the right-wing playbook: Undermine the law. Call your critics crazy. Repeat. That’s why we need to call out authoritarianism and fight back.

Fox News screenshot: Stern pointed to Massachusetts Democrat Sen. Edward Markey’s earlier statements in the hearing in which he said “the answer to statements in the hearing in which he said “the answer to antisemitism will never be authoritarianism. We cannot guarantee freedom if we let Trump March in and steal freedom.” Hawley responded that he had heard Markey’s comments and called them “insane.”

I am in solidarity with primary care physicians @doctorscouncilseiu.bsky.social as they exercise their right to organize a union. Physician working conditions are patient care conditions. I urge all parties to come to the table and bargain in good faith.

Get serious. Seniors contributed to Social Security their entire lives. Now Republicans want to take it away. Whether it’s Secretary Lutnick or Elon Musk—Trump’s ultra-wealthy cabinet is hyper-focused on making sure Gramma and Grampa’s cabinets stay empty.

I’m voting no because Trump and Musk don’t want just a shutdown. They want us to stand down in our fight to protect Medicaid, Medicare, and the social safety net.

The GOP and Trump continuing resolution can be summed up like this: The rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and Trump and Musk get a free pass to continue their damage. I’m a NO. We must fight their attacks on working families.

Yesterday, I joined the Massachusetts Building Trades Union Convention in Springfield. Workers are under attack by Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and their Republican enablers. We are fighting back.

MBTU post reading: SenMarkey just took the stage at our convention to highlight the benefits of Project Labor Agreements and stand firm in his fight to protect the interests of the union building trades in Massachusetts. As the senator put it, “We are health, we are education, we are labor.”

Donald Trump is running a government of for and by the billionaires. He wants to fund tax breaks for the ultra wealthy while cutting off funding to public education. Northampton says no.

We came together today in Northampton to say NO to Donald Trump and Elon Musk’s illegal power grabs.

Whenever you hear Trump say tax cut, that’s money out of your pocket and into Elon’s. Whenever you hear Trump say commonsense policy, that’s common sense for billionaires but dollars and cents out of your family’s pocket.

Firing workers. Gutting worker protections. Making it harder for Americans to get their Social Security. Turns out Make America Great Again just means making the rich richer on the backs of the working class.
