Pressley says she has enough support to force vote on Haitian TPS extension - Dorchester Reporter Rep. Ayanna Pressley says she has secured enough support from her colleagues in the House to seek a vote to extend Temporary Protected Status (TPS) for Haitians living in the United States.

This is a big deal, y'all!

We're now closer than ever to extending TPS for Haiti and giving our neighbors the protections they deserve.

Because of your advocacy, we have the signers needed to force a vote. www.dotnews.com/2026/03/28/p...

35 people at today’s #boycottcitens Bank protest in Roslindale MA. Warehouses are for packages, not people. Trump is shutting down economic opportunity; increasing violence.

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

US citizens detained by ICE speak out:

"They dragged me outside and pulled me into a headlock. I repeated, 'I'm a citizen. I have an ID.' The agent kept saying, 'That don't matter'... Inside my cell, I heard wailing, screaming, begging. Alongside that was the banter and laughter from the agents."

When I spoke to local activists here in Minneapolis, they told me there is a palpable sense that ICE agents are out for blood, that they want a fight, and you can feel it. I finally saw that myself at the Whipple Federal Building. ICE feels emboldened by the state covering for murder. Untouchable.
