Huge TY to all who came out for APIs CAN Advocacy Day yesterday! I joined a round table with Angie Liou of Asian Community Development Corporation, Bethany Li & Moana Bentin of Asian American & Pacific Islanders Commission and Rep. Hong to discuss challenges AAPI and working class communities in MA face & how we can work to overcome them!



It's been an honor to serve on the Aging and Independence Committee for my 3rd term so that I can advocate for bills like An Act promoting housing stability for older adults across the Commonwealth. Thank you @caas and Somerville Office of Housing Stability for testifying today!


I attended the Indigenous Legislative Agenda Launch event yesterday at the State House. Thank you to everyone who put this event together and to the organizations that spoke on the impact of the Agenda's bills including speakers from North American Indian Center of Boston.


Last night was perfect night for eating 🍕and meeting with constituents! Thank you to City of Somerville for putting on these events again this year. The Ward 6 Slice of the City is tonight at Powderhouse Park. Hope to see you all there!


Yesterday I met with constituents from Mass Senior Action and Somerville-Cambridge Elder Services for Mass Aging Access' Older Adult Lobby Day. Thank you to everyone who took the time to come out and advocate and a special thank you to Senator Pat Jehlen for sharing her office for such a large group!

This weekend, I was honored to attend the Asian American & Pacific Islanders Commission's Unity Dinner, an evening of community, culture, and connection.
