Today, I joined @HouseDemocrats on the steps of the United States Capitol, across from the Supreme Court, to say to the Supreme Court and to the Senate: hands off women's reproductive health care. #ProtectRoe 
Republicans want a nationwide ban on abortion. Make no mistake: once Republicans shred long-standing precedent and privacy rights, they intend to wage an all out assault on more of our rights, including access to contraception and marriage equality.
As Republicans seek to control and criminalize women's reproductive health freedoms, Democrats are fighting to enshrine Roe v. Wade into law. We will never stop fighting for patients and their health care providers to defend the rights of women and all Americans.
The Great Tennis v. Pickleball War of 2022 is happening today in my small town at the Select Board meeting. I am ready for this bit of low-stakes but high emotion local governance that I have absolutely no opinions on whatsoever. It’s going to be a barn-burner of a fight.
Y’all it is standing room only (we are watching from home though). People are out in the hall because they can’t fit in. Neighbor against neighbor. Friendships will fall.
Pickleball will not be considered until later in the meeting. But for those who don’t follow local politics, a primer. The town has 8 tennis courts. The pickleballers are petitioning to have three turned permanently into pickleball courts.

In Massachusetts, the business community has helped lead the way on many of our most important fights - from workplace equality and fighting for LGBTQ rights, to making our case against the Travel Ban.
This state and this country needs to hear from you on the fight to #ProtectRoe.
