No, Mr. President, the 75% of Americans who oppose data centers in their communities do not want to be “backwards and poor.” They want a decent future for themselves, their kids and their communities. They understand that data centers are destroying local environments and that these out-of-control technologies will likely eliminate tens of millions of jobs, eviscerate our privacy, negatively impact the mental health of our children, radically alter how we as human beings relate to each other, undermine our democracy and threaten the very future of humanity. They have every right to be concerned.

Dr. Martin Luther King understood that political freedom and economic freedom are inseparable. "What good is having the right to sit at a lunch counter if you can't afford to buy a hamburger?" he famously asked. Today, Dr. King’s dream is under unprecedented attack. FIGHT BACK.

Dorchester. Thanks for the great turnout today. Status quo politics and status quo policies are not working. We have to fight for an agenda that works for all, not just the few. That’s exactly why we need to send Ed Markey back to the United States Senate.

At a time of historic income and wealth inequality, we need leaders in Congress who stand with working families, not billionaires. We need leaders who will fight for Medicare for All and raise the minimum wage to a living wage. Ed Markey is that leader. x.com/i/broadcasts/1vJpPNlDM…

Sen. Ed Markey is taking on the oligarchs and delivering for working families. Not surprisingly, a super PAC supporting his opponent has raised over $5 million from corporate interests to try and defeat him. Please join me, Ed, Elizabeth Warren and Ayanna Pressley on Saturday.

Mark Zuckerberg's Meta, which made $60 billion last year, agreed to pay up to $17 billion for getting children addicted to its platforms. This is a good step forward. Much more needs to be done. It’s time to put our kids' health over Big Tech oligarchs’ greed.

The U.S. now spends twice as much per capita on healthcare as other major countries, all of which have universal healthcare. Why? The function of the U.S. system isn't quality care for all. It is massive profits for insurance and drug companies. We need Medicare for All NOW.

Americans are fighting back against inequality. Despite billionaires spending $156M against it & opposition from leaders of both parties, California’s 5% billionaire wealth tax is winning 48-41% in a new poll. Billionaires WILL pay their fair share. It begins in CA.

Trump thinks that every community in America should welcome a data center. Great idea. Lead by example. Have your friend Elon build one at Mar-a-Lago.

Angie Nixon is proof that organized people can take on organized money — and win. Outspent more than 16 to 1, she won in a landslide. Working people all over this country are sick and tired of status quo politics and status quo policies. They want change, real change.

The 2026 elections are not just about the economy, healthcare, AI, etc. They're about stopping Trump’s efforts to undermine democracy. When we stand together and organize at the grassroots, we will not only defeat authoritarianism but create a government that works for all.

It’s not complicated. Despite being heavily outspent, many progressives across the country are winning elections for one simple reason: The ideas they are running on are extremely popular.
