🧵It was never going to be easy or painless to overturn decades of free-trade policies that have failed working people, but we have to think in years, not days.

As a new member of the Natural Resources Committee, I’ll have even greater ability to represent Maine harvesters in Washington.
Representation starts with listening. Great to join the Fishermen’s Forum and hear from directly from the Mainers who work our waters.
Senior executive officials have access to info most Americans do not. Trading on it is wrong.
Alongside a congressional stock ban, it’s beyond time to hold executive branch leaders accountable to their own duty of public service. My bill cracks down on that corruption.
The House GOP is proposing health care cuts to pay for tax cuts for the rich. It’s just wrong.
It was great meeting with the American Legion to discuss their “Be the One" initiative to reduce veteran suicides.
Mental health struggles are something no one should have to fight alone. Better access to help is essential and I'm doing all I can to make it happen for Maine vets.
This week’s VA layoffs at Togus are a mistake. Vets already have a hard enough time getting access to high-quality care and asking fewer employees to do more work is unsustainable.
Let's get these Mainers back to work doing what they love: helping our vets.
I had a great meeting with Disabled American Veterans about critical health issues that disabled veterans face and how to address them in Congress.
From covering service-related healthcare needs to benefits for surviving spouses, I’m committed to getting disabled veterans the support they earned.
Americans deserve and Congress can do better than harmful cuts, irresponsible deficit spending and unnecessary tax cuts for those at the top.
What’s more, this bill adds trillions to the federal debt, which is already threatening to crowd out critical programs like Medicare and Social Security.
More than 160,000 working-class Mainers rely on the ACA and Medicaid, and this budget resolution puts their health care on the chopping block to fund tax cuts that overwhelmingly benefit the wealthy and corporations.
🧵I just voted against the House GOP's budget resolution, which sets the stage for harmful health care cuts, more deficit spending and tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations.
Working families pay their bills every month, not once a year.
My plan replaces the CTC's annual tax tweaks with monthly cash payments that are easier to budget around and provide a steady stream of income to help make ends meet.

New federal directives and executive orders from the Trump Administration are coming every day.
If you are or think you may be affected by federal policy and program changes, I want to hear from you:

These officers were confirmed by the Senate & served admirably under presidents of both parties. Our military and all Americans deserve assurances that the most lethal, ethical military the world has ever known will continue to perform its duties without regard for politics.
Every man & woman in uniform takes an oath to the Constitution. A strict dedication to that oath is endangered if we allow their continued service to be subjected to tests of political loyalty.
🧵We cannot tolerate the politicization of the US Military, and I'll do everything I can to prevent it.
Today I joined a bipartisan group of fellow veterans in Congress to demand answers about the Trump Administration’s reported plans to dismiss General and Flag Officers.
Many Mainers have questions about how President Trump’s actions will affect our state. I wanted to share with you what my staff and I are doing, and what response I think this moment deserves from elected leaders:

It was great to meet with leaders from Maine’s Civil Air Patrol, which develops leadership skills and cultivates the spirit of public service for youth across our state. I'm proud to support their work.
The National Labor Relations Board has tirelessly defended worker’s rights for generations. It needs to be able to continue doing its job effectively and independently.
President Trump's decision to fire Member Gwynne Wilcox was wrong and must be reversed:
