When the Supreme Court struck down Trump’s tariffs, they made it clear that power belongs to Congress.

I'm joining 18 fellow governors calling on Congress to block Trump’s illegal tariff taxes. Our small businesses and families can't afford more uncertainty or higher costs.

President Trump's tariff taxes cost every family $1,700 – and the Supreme Court just ruled them unconstitutional.
 
Give Americans their money back.

In March 1776, Abigail Adams told her husband to "remember the ladies.” A call for women to be included in the promise of America.

250 years later, we face new attacks on our freedom — and her call still resonates.

We just secured one of the largest Project Labor Agreements in state history to replace the @mbta.com's Draw One bridge. What does that mean?

✅ A project that's time and on budget
✅ A bridge built to last
✅ Thousands of good-paying jobs
✅ Faster, safer commutes

Governor Healey Demands Transparency from ICE on Arrests in Massachusetts. Governor Healey Demands Transparency from ICE on Arrests in Massachusetts.

ICE isn’t arresting the “worst of the worst.” By their own numbers, most have no criminal history whatsoever.

Tearing people away from their families and lawyers doesn’t make us safer — especially when we don't know who's being detained or why.

Massachusetts deserves answers.

BREAKING: We're cutting red tape to give more energy projects the go-ahead — guided by local input.

More solar, wind and storage means lower bills, a more reliable grid and good-paying jobs. And when more people are part of the conversation, we get better solutions for our cities and towns.

The @mbta.com’s Draw One Bridge carries 200K passengers in and out of Boston each week. After almost a century, it’s time for an upgrade. 
  
We reached an agreement with the Greater Boston Building Trades to deliver this $1.2B project on time, on budget, to high standards — and create 15K jobs.

Good. But this problem goes all the way to the top.

Donald Trump unleashed ICE’s violent tactics on American cities and towns. He has to be the one to stop them.

Wearable tech firm Whoop plans to hire 600 workers, mostly in Boston - The Boston Globe The hiring binge at Whoop, which employs about 800 people now, comes even as many tech companies are making layoffs.

Companies choose Massachusetts because we’ve got the talent, the ideas, and the partnerships that help businesses grow.

WHOOP adding 600 new jobs is great news — and a strong vote of confidence in our workers and our economy.

By capping student loans, Trump wants to shut nurses, educators, and social workers out of grad school because they’re not “professional.”

My mom was a school nurse. They're professional.

His plan will make grad school harder to afford and the worker shortage harder to fix.

Columbia says ICE agents used false pretenses to enter a university residence and detain a student. Here’s what we know | CNN Ellie Aghayeva had documented an intensive, 10-hour study session in the Columbia University library Wednesday night, sharing with her sizeable social media following how she prepares for an exam and ...

ICE lying to arrest a student in their dorm room is outrageous — but sadly, exactly what we expect from President Trump's untrained federal agents.

Students and staff should know: ICE needs a judicial warrant to enter dorm buildings in Massachusetts.

My thoughts and prayers are with our service members in harm’s way, and with the families who bear the weight of their sacrifice every day.

We’re closely coordinating with state and local public safety officials after recent U.S. military operations in Iran.

There are no credible threats to Massachusetts, and keeping our communities safe is always our top priority.

Incredible teamwork happening in Fall River as we dig out from a record-breaking storm.

We surged resources to the region. With the help of nearby states and National Guard, we're making progress.

Huge thanks to crews working nonstop and neighbors pitching in. We’ll get through this together.

Massachusetts: we haven’t seen a blizzard like this since ’78. We’ve made real progress clearing roads and restoring power — but we’ve got work left to do.

We’ve surged resources to the hardest-hit communities, and our teams are working around the clock to get the job done.

I’ve been briefed on the house fire in Taunton. State Police and fire officials are on-scene, and we’re asking residents to avoid the area so our teams can investigate.

I’m keeping those hurt in the explosion, their loved ones, and their neighbors in my prayers.

When winter hits hard, New York and Massachusetts are on the same team.

Game Day? That’s a different story.

Truly grateful to @governor.ny.gov for sending equipment to support snow removal efforts in our state.

In his State of the Union, Trump told Americans not to believe what they’re seeing and feeling — higher prices, cuts to health care and food support, dangerous ICE tactics.

Whatever’s happening in Washington, my focus in Massachusetts is simple: lower costs and deliver on what matters to you.

President Trump says he’s “solved” affordability.

Tell that to families paying more at the grocery store. More for housing. More for energy. More for health care.

If it doesn’t feel solved, that’s because it’s not. Trump is making it worse.

With record-breaking snowfall across Massachusetts, getting through this storm took a true team effort — and digging out will too.

And as always, Team Massachusetts is stepping up, looking out for one another, and getting it done.
