¡Es un gusto anunciar la publicación en español de mi libro, El pacto de invisibilidad: redes de gobernanza y seguridad de migrantes en Ecuador, con @AbyaYalaed. ¡Estoy muy agradecido a @pryankappc por su traducción excelente! https://t.co/4ZpGoOSxE8

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

This morning, @SenMarkey, @RepPressley and I got back from visiting the detention center in Louisiana where the Trump administration is holding students as political prisoners—depriving them of due process in order to silence them.

We won't stop fighting until they're released.

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Catch an excerpt from my speech:

[Rep. Jim McGovern @RepMcGovern]

Defending human rights and opposing authoritarian regimes takes planning, unity, and nonviolent discipline. But when people power is mobilized for good, it is the best hope we have for turning the tide of oppression.

Great to be with graduate & undergraduate students at @UMassBoston for the Slomoff Lecture. You all give me hope for our future!

[Jeff Pugh @jpugh00]

I am spending this year as a @CFR_org International Affairs Fellow in the U.S. House of Representatives. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to delve into the policy world and to have this kind of view at work!
