Massachusetts lit the way in 1775, and we’re proud to carry that spirit forward as we celebrate America’s 250th.

This July 4th, we’ll put on the biggest and best @thebostonpops.bsky.social Fireworks Spectacular, led by Keith Lockhart — this year’s Third Lantern Award honoree.

Congratulations! 🎆

Haitian TPS holders have been building lives here for years — working, raising families, and strengthening our communities.

They belong here.

Grateful to @pressley.house.gov for leading on this. The Senate should act on this quickly.

🏘️ And we're making it easier to build and grow by streamlining permitting, unlocking new housing, and turning vacant space into vibrant main streets.

Because when our businesses win, Massachusetts wins.

Spending 3+ hours a day on social media doubles teens’ risk of depression and anxiety.

Most are already at 3.5 hours. That’s a problem. So, we’re doing something about it.

My bill turns off addictive features like infinite scroll and autoplay — and limits use to 2 hours a day.

From supporting us 250 years ago to a $750M+ trade relationship today, Spain has long been a valued partner.

Now we’re deepening that bond—with a new trade office and a $200M fund connecting Spanish startups to our biotech ecosystem.

I get it. TikTok and Instagram can be fun. I scroll sometimes too.

But nonstop screen time is taking a real toll on our young people.

So, I’m filing a bill to protect our kids and give parents — not platforms — the final say on social media.

We’re requiring social media platforms to regularly remind young users about the impact these they can have on their health and wellbeing.

And we’re putting young people and their families back in control of time spent online.

I want strong default protections for anyone under 18, including:

⏱️Limiting use to 2 hrs a day
📱Turn off infinite scroll and autoplay
📍Turn off location sharing
🔕 Ban notifications overnight and during school

For kids 15 and under, only a parent can change these settings.

As AG, I led nationwide investigations into social media platforms like Meta and TikTok.

We found that features like infinite scroll and autoplay keep kids glued to their screens — and that's not by accident.

That's why I just filed a bill to protect young people online.

On Yom HaShoah, we remember the victims of the Holocaust and reflect on where hatred can lead when it goes unchecked.

We must speak out, stand together, and reject antisemitism wherever and whenever we see it.

Massachusetts health reform at 20: A model for what government can do - The Boston Globe The 2006 reform law showed what’s possible when leaders put people ahead of politics. That lesson is more urgent than ever.

Twenty years ago this week, leaders from both parties came together at Faneuil Hall and made history.

They put partisanship aside and proved what’s possible when you focus on getting things done.

A reminder that government can do hard things — and when Washington stalls, states step up and lead.

Federal judge dismisses DOJ lawsuit against Massachusetts after it refused to turn over voter data - The Boston Globe Federal judges in January have already dismissed the DOJ’s lawsuits against California and Oregon, in which the department claimed the federal government was entitled to voter information.

A big win for Massachusetts voters and the rule of law.

Grateful to @massago.bsky.social and Secretary Galvin for defending the integrity of our elections. Voters’ private data is not up for grabs — and Massachusetts won’t back down from protecting it.

Logan Airport didn’t have long TSA lines. Here’s why. - The Boston Globe People gave officers gift cards, union leaders encouraged workers not to call in sick, and Massport waived parking fees.

A reminder that small acts matter. We showed up for TSA officers at Boston Logan — and TSA officers showed up for us.

No matter what's going on in Washington, THIS is who we are, Massachusetts. So proud to live in this state.

Jobs numbers are in — Massachusetts has added nearly 15,000 jobs in just a few months.

That's why businesses are choosing Massachusetts.

President Trump’s Executive Order is about making voting harder, plain and simple. Vote by mail works, and his fraud claims don’t hold up.

Elections belong to the states. Grateful to @massago.bsky.social for fighting to keep ours safe, secure, and fair.
