We urge the First Circuit to uphold Massachusetts’ ban on assault weapons and large-capacity magazines. States play an essential role in promoting public safety, and that role must include combatting threats of mass shootings and senseless gun violence.

Joined law enforcement from across the state to mourn our fallen heroes.   My deepest condolences to the family and friends of the officers memorialized at this year’s California Peace Officers’ Memorial.    California is eternally in their debt.

Early voting is an important and lawful manner of increasing the ability of citizens to participate in our democracy. I'm joining 13 AGs in an amicus brief supporting Delaware’s election officials, who are defending a challenge to DE’s early voting law.

I applaud today's ruling by the U.S. Court of Appeals. In 2022, I joined 18 AGs in filing an amicus brief in this case to support transgender rights and equal access to healthcare. Plain and simple: Gender-affirming care is healthcare.

Breaking news: A federal court in Richmond became the first in the country to rule that state health-care plans must pay for gender-affirming surgeries, a major win for transgender rights amid a nationwide wave of anti-trans activism and legislation.
