BOSTON – Today, March 27, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) officially announced her reelection campaign in a video on social media. Warren is running for re-election to deliver results for the Commonwealth, end corruption in Washington, make our economy work for the middle class, and protect our democracy.

“I first ran for Senate because I saw how the system is rigged for the rich and powerful and against everyone else. I won because Massachusetts voters know it, too. And now I’m running for Senate again because there’s a lot more we’ve got to do,” Senator Warren said in the video announcement.  “Pass a wealth tax. Make child care affordable. Protect our coastal communities. Build a 21st century transportation system across all of Massachusetts.  Oh, and like I’ve been saying for years — put stricter rules on banks so they don’t crash and hurt working people.”

“We know it won’t be easy. We’ve seen the powerful forces against us and how extreme the Republicans are. But the last ten years have taught us that when we organize, when we hold those in power accountable, when we fight righteous fights — then we can make positive change,” said Senator Warren. “That’s why I’m running for Senate – are you with us?”

The announcement video includes people from across Massachusetts and elected leaders such as U.S. Senator Ed Markey, U.S. Representative Ayanna Pressley and Boston Mayor Michelle Wu.

“Elizabeth is my partner in the Senate – and I have seen this perpetual energy machine up close. Passing a tax on greedy corporations paying zero taxes? She got it done,” said Senator Markey. “Making billionaires cry on TV? Done.”

“It’s always impossible, until it’s done. She never loses sight of the people,” said Representative Pressley. “She never forgets that policy is about people’s lives.”

“She won billions in funding for projects across our state, like a new electric school bus fleet,” added Mayor Wu “to help achieve a city Green New Deal!” 

Meet Elizabeth Warren:

Warren grew up in Oklahoma on the ragged edge of the middle class. Her family came an inch from losing their house after her dad’s heart attack, but her mom got a minimum wage job at Sears that saved their family. She dropped out of college at 19 to get married, but she got a second chance at a public college that cost $50 a semester and got to live her dream of becoming a public school teacher. She’s dedicated her career to studying why families go broke and fighting to rebuild the middle class. After Wall Street crashed our economy in 2008, she fought to create the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) to protect people from getting tricked and scammed by big banks and corporations. The CFPB has already returned more than $12 billion to American consumers who’ve been cheated. Now, Elizabeth’s fighting to end Washington corruption and make our government work for everyone — not just the rich and powerful.
