On Monday, I'm celebrating Indigenous Peoples Day &I'm proud to be the Senate sponsor of a bill to make that change official, working in partnership with Indigenous leaders across the state The legacy of colonization, in the name of Columbus, is one not worthy of memorialization

Real strength is about helping people who need it. It’s about standing up for those who can’t always stand up for themselves. Let’s get to work and vote for the leaders who demonstrate that kind of character. Vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.

Why do some in MA oppose changing Columbus Day to Indigenous Peoples Day? Find out: commonwealthbeacon.org/opinion/state-… via @cwbeacon
