Ayanna Pressley Instagram - One of my constituents stood up at our town hall and shared her story. Her pain was raw and her fear real. 

So many are hurting. This administration’s callousness and cruelty has a human toll. 

It’s hard to find words for these moments that don’t fall short. These are unprecedented times and I don’t have all the answers. But I will wake up every day thinking about your daughters, your families, and your struggles. And I will do everything I can to fight for you.

Hands off.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - So... this is 50. I am so very grateful for this life and for the many life lessons. I am grateful for every blessing, heartbreak, hardship, trauma, or loss that brought with it wisdom, insight, and empathy. I am grateful that I've never known a dream deferred because everything has happened as it should, when it should. I am grateful that I found a forever love, the joys of being a bonus mom, the gift of family, chosen sisters, community, and movement family. I am thankful that Sandy was chosen as my mother and Martin as my father. I thank my Mom for my lips and hips and my Dad for my nose and cheekbones, and I thank them both for informing my Black consciousness, my love for the written word, and my belief in the power of the people. I thank the ancestors and my angels. I don't know what the future holds, but I'm clear about who holds it. Thank you all for your birthday wishes, the outpouring of love and support, and the many prayers that have kept me covered during this 50 year journey. Here's to a season of world change, peace, healing, JUSTICE, and unapologetic JOY!

All eyes on Gaza.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Trayvon Martin deserved to grow old.

Instead, he was violently killed and made a martyr.

On his 29th birthday and always, we’ll never stop fighting for accountability, an end to white supremacy, and a world where Black men can age with dignity.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Let’s call this what it is: Wholesale voter suppression.
I voted NO. 

Implications of the SAVE Act below. šŸ‘‡šŸ½ 

1. This bill requires people to present a passport, birth certificate, or other proof of citizenship when registering to vote or updating your voter registration (anytime you move to a new address or state). Your driver’s license or state ID alone would not be sufficient. 

2. The bill could eliminate popular methods of voter registration, such as online, mail and registration drives. 

3. This would make it harder to vote for rural voters, married women, the military, people of color, disabled people, and anyone who can’t afford to spend the extra time and money to get a passport or the necessary documentation to prove citizenship.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Apparently Republicans in Congress don’t read history books so I gave a quick lesson on why the Department of Education was created (and why destroying it would set us back decades).
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - A true movement builder, truth teller, and champion of the people. @coribush, it has been an honor to work alongside you in Congress.

Dark money in politics remains a threat to our democracy, but our Work for justice will continue.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Horrific and gut wrenching images coming out of Rafah last night.

How much longer will the U.S. stand by while the Israeli military slaughters and mutilates Palestinian babies?

Where is our humanity? #CeasefireNOW
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - We held the largest public gathering of faith leaders for a ceasefire in Greater Boston since Oct 7.

Together, we mourned the lives lost in Israel and Gaza, and turned our grief into action.

We must have a #CeasefireNOW to save lives, release hostages, and deliver humanitarian aid.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Rümeysa Ɩztürk should be at home in Somerville celebrating Ramadan with her friends and community.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - The nationwide police crackdown on peaceful student protestors is an unacceptable violation of freedom of speech.

Students are calling on us to save lives in Gaza.

With 35K Palestinians killed, hostages still held by Hamas & millions facing starvation, we need a #CeasefireNOW.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - @kamalaharris is a moral and empathetic leader.

She is poised, she is prepared, and she is qualified.

I vigorously endorse her to be our 47th President of the United States.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Dear Massachusetts 7th, 

It is an honor to be your Congresswoman. 

Let’s run it back. 

Love, 
Ayanna
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Sonya Massey should be alive today.

Instead, she was shot in the head and killed by police after calling them for help.

We must have accountability for Sonya’s family. 

And we must legislate to build a world where Black folks can grow old, with safety and dignity.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Tell me what kind of efficiency makes people sicker, hungrier, and poorer.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Peaceful student protest has long been a catalyst in our movement for justice—and should be met with thoughtful dialogue, not state sanctioned violence.

The work of healing is not possible if we meet trauma with more trauma.

We cannot make the same mistakes of generations past.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Unconscionable. We need a #CeasefireNOW to save lives.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - @walgreens’ closures of pharmacies in Roxbury, Mattapan & Hyde Park are not arbitrary or innocent.

They are disruptive, life-threatening acts of racial & economic discrimination.

As a multi-billion-dollar corporation, they must stop divesting from Black & brown communities.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Michelle Wu earned my endorsement and I’m so proud to call her my Mayor.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Amber Thurman should be alive today. She was denied routine, necessary medical care. She died because of an abortion ban. And now her 6-year-old is left to navigate the world without his mother. Horrific and unacceptable.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Grief is a motha. The word for today is... BREATHE. I only just now realized how much I hold my breath. It's probably some fight or flight response in my body. I'm sure I'm not alone.  Have a great day, insta peeps.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - .@iowawbb and @gamecockwbb talk about an epic rematch. Some of the best athletes to ever play the game. Conan, Cora, and I loved watching you make history.

And @staley05 you are a national treasure ma’am.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Recently, a little girl during  a school visit asked me this  question "What is something you really love about yourself?" I'm embarrassed that I struggled to answer.  Eventually, I said I love that I am  empathetic and that I am responsibly using the gifts God gave me. I love 
 how I love. And I love my high cheekbones, small feet, and hands  because they reflect my Dad and my Mom.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Voted early with my partner in life and in good (per tradition!)

Elections matter. Proud to cast another vote for a future where working one job is enough, bodily autonomy is a human right, homeownership is within reach, and college opens doors and not mountains of debt.

P.S. Massachusetts’ presidential primary election is TOMORROW.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Packed house in Roxbury today. This is what democracy looks like.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - MOHELA has abused our borrowers and exacerbated the student debt crisis for far too long.

That’s why @potus must #FireMOHELA and make clear that loan servicer negligence, exploitation, and profiteering will not be tolerated.

There must be accountability.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Discussing classified military action in a group chat is reckless and puts all of us at risk. 

Everyone involved should be investigated and Pete Hegseth must resign.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Every day we go without a ceasefire is another day Palestinians face violence, famine, death, and destruction.

And every day we don’t de-escalate the Middle East, more lives are put at risk.

We need a #CeasefireNOW to save lives, surge humanitarian aid, and bring all hostages home.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Meanwhile, I’m on the road in PA doing my Black job to elect a Black woman President. 

And if you still haven’t learned how to say KAMALA, Donald, then come 2025 Madam President will do just fine.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - If we truly believe that Black lives matter, then that must include Haitian lives.

We’ll never stop fighting for the freedom, safety, dignity, and just future that our Haitian neighbors deserve.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - In celebration of National Poetry Month, Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley (@ayannapressley) reads ā€œTo Be of Useā€ by Marge Piercy.

šŸ‘¤ Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley is an activist, a legislator, a survivor, and the first woman of color to be elected to Congress from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Throughout her career, Congresswoman Pressley has fought to ensure that those closest to the pain are closest to the power - driving and informing policymaking. In Congress, she has been a champion for justice and healing: reproductive justice, justice for immigrants, consumer justice, justice for seniors, justice for workers, justice for survivors of sexual violence, justice for formerly and currently incarcerated individuals, and healing for those who have experienced trauma. She has also turned her experience living with alopecia into action, becoming a leading voice fighting to raise awareness and support for the alopecia community across the nation.

Congresswoman Pressley currently serves on the House Committee on Oversight and Reform and the House Committee on Financial Services. Prior to being elected to Congress, she served on the Boston City Council for eight years, and was the first woman of color elected to the council in its 100-year history.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - #NLPFAM Reparations? In this moment? Absolutely!

Congresswoman @ayannapressley lays it all out: We’re living in a time of anti-Blackness on steroids—so the antidote? Pro-Blackness. This is not the time to shrink our aspirations.

In this special episode, Rep. Pressley speaks unapologetically about her fight for HR 40, the national bill to study and develop reparations proposals for Black Americans. She’s calling out her party’s shortcomings and making it clear—we need to be bold about advancing justice in the face of this administration! šŸ‘šŸ¾

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Happy 50th Birthday to our Congresswoman.

From fighting for the people of the #MA7 to keeping those closest to the pain closest to the power, we’re so proud to do this work with you.

TY for reminding us to show up in the world as our full, authentic selves.

- Your ATeam
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Zora Neal Hurston once said, "Those that don't got it, can't show it. Those that got it, can't hide it." This is my Sister In Law, Ieasha James, aka SIL. My Mother in Law calls her "Divine" because, well, she is. Happy Birthday Week to my beloved SIL . 

Truly, words can never fully express the depth of my love, respect, gratitude, and admiration for you. You are the most generous, selfless person I know. Thank you for being generous with your love and your many creative and artistic gifts. Thank you for all the ways (big and bigger) that you show up for me, our family, and the community. 

I love our kitchen conversations, which seem to never end. I love that you are genuinely curious about people and the world. I love that you share the same celebrity crushes, stay ready to play a game (Christian is so lucky), or to line dance, I love that cat reels make you smile. 

I applaud your transparency in your healing journey, and I admire the strength of your faith and how you practice it with the boldness of your life choices and pursuits. 

Your standard for excellence is unparalleled. You love hard, work hard, pray even harder, and create magic.  Thank you for majestic, elegant, and safe space(s). There are people  working actively to depress our imaginations, steal our joy, and deny our beauty. 

SIL, your contributions matter greatly in the broader movement and work for change. There can be no revolution without art. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a divine masterpiece. ILUKK, @iamieashajames!
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Sarah Groh. I'm so very glad you were born and grateful to have you by my side and at the helm of the A-Team as my Chief of Staff. 

Truly, you are the goat. You are an incredible daughter, sister, wife, mom, and friend and an extraordinary human. 

I absolutely love being on this  path with you. I love that we can say everything or nothing at all, and it is exactly enough. 

I admire your intellect and strategic mind. I remain inspired by your work ethic and grateful for your innumerable personal sacrifices. 

You are my favorite soccer player, Red Sox and Beyonce' fan and Pete's Diner date. You are one of the best, most kind, and most consistent humans I've ever known. 

Thank you for changing my life but never changing who you are. Happy birthday, @sarahgroh89!
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - On #LongCOVID Awareness Day, I’m joining advocates across the country to demand bold federal action to address this growing crisis.

Congress must pass my #TREATLongCOVID Act, invest in research, and deliver the resources and care our #LongHaulers deserve.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Wouldn’t call myself a college sports expert, but I’m told women’s basketball is where it’s at. 

So, here goes — what do you think, family?
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Officially strolling into #Aquarius season.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Today marks 51 years since #RoeVWade—and a year & a half since it was overturned.

Make no mistake—this fight isn't over.

We will keep fighting to protect & expand access to reproductive healthcare. 

We will affirm abortion care as the human right it is.

We will not back down.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Devastated by the transition of our beloved sister, Sarah Ann Shaw, one of my greatest inspirations.

A trailblazing, respected, and proud Black journalist, she dedicated her life to her work and her community — telling our stories, shattering ceilings, and mentoring other Black journalists like Liz Walker and Karen Holmes Ward.

She once said, ā€œI plan on doing as much as I can, for as long as I can, and that’s really all I have to say.ā€ She did, and we are all better for it. 

Holding space today for her family, for Black Boston, and for all those blessed to have known her, loved her, and been loved by her.šŸ’œ
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - PA-12, you DID THAT.

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Donald Trump’s presidency continues to challenge all conventional understanding of executive authority. His administration’s extensive use of executive orders has reshaped the political landscape, testing established laws, ethical boundaries, and institutional norms.⁠
⁠
Among those raising alarms is Democratic @repayannapressley of Massachusetts, who has consistently questioned what happens when governmental powers are directed against the very citizens they were designed to protect.⁠
⁠
On this week’s episode of The Intercept Briefing, she discusses these concerns, including the administration’s immigration enforcement tactics targeting international students — among them, one of her own constituents. Rümeysa Ɩztürk, a Ph.D. candidate at Tufts University who has a valid student visa, was abducted off the street by ICE agents.⁠

Ayanna Pressley Instagram - George Floyd should be alive today, surrounded by family.

Instead, he was viciously murdered and made a martyr.

In his name, we fight for accountability, for healing, and a world where Black men can grow old.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - @mayorwu, you’re right: the future is ours to shape.

I’m grateful for the progress we’ve seen under your leadership, and I’m excited to continue partnering with you to make Boston a place where every generation can live, grow, and thrive.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - What Trump and Vance are saying about Haitian families is a racist, dangerous lie that puts Haitians at risk.

They’re so desperate to distract from their deeply unpopular agenda that they resort to fabrications like these—and we won’t stand for it.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - It’s past time we affirm the fundamental right to dignified work and a living wage.

That’s why I’m re-introducing my #FederalJobGuarantee — an unfulfilled demand of the Civil Rights Movement and an opportunity to achieve full employment and true economic security for all.
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Today and always, I’m celebrating women. The space we dare to take up and create. The trails we blaze and tables we shake.

We are movement leaders, caretakers, and community builders. Survivors, champions, and so much more.

Our power is undeniable and we are unstoppable. #IWD
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Dr. King was a radical dreamer with a bold vision for revolutionary change.

He was an unapologetic Black man who fought actively to eradicate the three evils of poverty, racism, & militarism.

I’m grateful for his leadership & words that remain as true & powerful today. #MLKDay
Ayanna Pressley Instagram - Dedicated federal workers like Claire strengthen our communities and our country. And their experiences are a reminder of why we must keep pushing back on the Musk-Trump assault on our democracy.

So many are hurting. This administration’s callousness and cruelty has a human toll. 

It’s hard to find words for these moments that don’t fall short. These are unprecedented times and I don’t have all the answers. But I will wake up every day thinking about your daughters, your families, and your struggles. And I will do everything I can to fight for you.

I am grateful for every blessing, heartbreak, hardship, trauma, or loss that brought with it wisdom, insight, and empathy. I am grateful that I've never known a dream deferred because everything has happened as it should, when it should. I am grateful that I found a forever love, the joys of being a bonus mom, the gift of family, chosen sisters, community, and movement family. I am thankful that Sandy was chosen as my mother and Martin as my father. I thank my Mom for my lips and hips and my Dad for my nose and cheekbones, and I thank them both for informing my Black consciousness, my love for the written word, and my belief in the power of the people. I thank the ancestors and my angels. I don't know what the future holds, but I'm clear about who holds it. Thank you all for your birthday wishes, the outpouring of love and support, and the many prayers that have kept me covered during this 50 year journey. Here's to a season of world change, peace, healing, JUSTICE, and unapologetic JOY!

Ayanna Pressley - 8.5K Likes - Let’s call this what it is: Wholesale voter suppression.
I voted NO. 

Implications of the SAVE Act below. šŸ‘‡šŸ½ 

1. This bill requires people to present a passport, birth certificate, or other proof of citizenship when registering to vote or updating your voter registration (anytime you move to a new address or state). Your driver’s license or state ID alone would not be sufficient. 

2. The bill could eliminate popular methods of voter registration, such as online, mail and registration drives. 

3. This would make it harder to vote for rural voters, married women, the military, people of color, disabled people, and anyone who can’t afford to spend the extra time and money to get a passport or the necessary documentation to prove citizenship.

šŸ‘¤ Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley is an activist, a legislator, a survivor, and the first woman of color to be elected to Congress from the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

She has also turned her experience living with alopecia into action, becoming a leading voice fighting to raise awareness and support for the alopecia community across the nation.

Prior to being elected to Congress, she served on the Boston City Council for eight years, and was the first woman of color elected to the council in its 100-year history.

Truly, words can never fully express the depth of my love, respect, gratitude, and admiration for you. You are the most generous, selfless person I know. Thank you for being generous with your love and your many creative and artistic gifts. Thank you for all the ways (big and bigger) that you show up for me, our family, and the community. 

I love our kitchen conversations, which seem to never end. I love that you are genuinely curious about people and the world. I love that you share the same celebrity crushes, stay ready to play a game (Christian is so lucky), or to line dance, I love that cat reels make you smile. 

I applaud your transparency in your healing journey, and I admire the strength of your faith and how you practice it with the boldness of your life choices and pursuits. 

Your standard for excellence is unparalleled. You love hard, work hard, pray even harder, and create magic.  Thank you for majestic, elegant, and safe space(s). There are people  working actively to depress our imaginations, steal our joy, and deny our beauty. 

SIL, your contributions matter greatly in the broader movement and work for change. There can be no revolution without art. HAPPY BIRTHDAY to a divine masterpiece. ILUKK, @iamieashajames!

We are movement leaders, caretakers, and community builders. Survivors, champions, and so much more.

Our power is undeniable and we are unstoppable. #IWD

He was an unapologetic Black man who fought actively to eradicate the three evils of poverty, racism, & militarism.

I’m grateful for his leadership & words that remain as true & powerful today. #MLKDay
