Congresswoman Ayanna Pressley, representing Massachusetts' 7th District since 2019, frequently addresses pressing issues through social media platforms. Her latest statements encompass a range of topics from criminal justice to education policy and healthcare.

On April 15, 2025, Pressley commented on former President Donald Trump's past remarks and legal troubles. In a tweet, she claimed "In the Oval Office, Trump suggested deporting citizens with criminal records. In the court of law, Trump is a rapist with 34 felony convictions."

On April 16, 2025, Pressley addressed the Trump administration's policies affecting higher education. She stated, "The Trump administration’s attacks on our universities are harmful & lawless. Education and scientific research are essential, and denying funding for them will cost us lives & undermine our democracy. This is the right call from Harvard. And together, we must all fight back."

Later on the same day, Pressley shifted focus to healthcare issues. Highlighting a specific concern, she tweeted, "It's 2025 and we still have a Black maternal morbidity crisis in America. This Black Maternal Health Week, let's recommit to the Work—not just raising awareness, but saving lives. Proud to join @RepUnderwood, @SenBooker, and @TCFdotorg to share our vision for ending this crisis."

Ayanna Pressley continues her legislative and advocacy work amidst an extensive political career, which began in Ohio and continues robustly in Massachusetts, focusing on addressing societal and political challenges.
