Ayanna Pressley, currently serving in the U.S. Congress representing Massachusetts’ 7th district, has been vocal on several issues through her recent social media posts. Her tweets reflect her advocacy on critical matters such as the federal death penalty and postal service reliability.

On December 11, 2024, Pressley expressed her opposition to the federal death penalty by stating that "State-sanctioned murder is not justice." She urged President Biden to use his authority to commute the sentences of individuals on death row before his term concludes.

In another tweet dated December 12, 2024, she highlighted concerns about the United States Postal Service (USPS). Pressley described USPS as "much more than a delivery service—it’s a lifeline." She criticized Postmaster General DeJoy's efforts to reduce services and expressed solidarity with constituents demanding equitable and reliable postal services.

Later that day, Pressley acknowledged President Biden's clemency announcement. She noted its impact by stating "Thanks to @POTUS' historic clemency announcement, 1,500 families will have their lives changed forever."
