Nothing in life makes me prouder than being a loving father and husband.
I’m proposing the FISC so everyone can create the family they want to have.

Our system already works great for the wealthiest households.
My proposed FISC phases out quickly for families with higher incomes, to keep costs down and target federal family support where it’s needed most.

We should support families who need help the most, not high-income households.
Low and middle-income parents — whether married or single, with one kid or five — get more under my plan for monthly child payments than they do from the Child Tax Credit.

30 years later, we're still slipping the leash to ensure our party remains a big tent. Check out this op-ed by me and the other Blue Dogs leaders to commemorate our 30th anniversary.
Since Valentine's Day 1995, Blue Dogs have focused on commonsense values like national security & fiscal sustainability, and core Democratic priorities like strong Social Security, health care & unions.
“Tariffs alone will not rebuild American industry. We also need sound tax, energy, regulatory and financial policy to achieve their full promise and reap their full rewards. But the first step is to stop cheap imports from undermining [our] manufacturers.”

Middle-class families need help. My new plan replaces the Child Tax Credit with more generous, targeted monthly payments that give parents real choices about the best way to raise their kids.

Maine growers put nutritious food on the table for our local communities.
Thanks to Harry and Nancy Ricker of Ricker Hill Orchards for setting up a great visit here in DC (and for making a great cider back home, too).
Kneecapping NLRB and shuttering CFPB — great for Musk, Zuckerberg and Bezos, not so great for working-class Americans.

Blue Dogs are working to make sure we:
✅ Extend middle-class tax cuts
❌ Stop tax breaks for the wealthy
💰 Get our fiscal house in order with deficit-neutral tax and budget policy
Maine’s working forests are part of our identity, thanks to the passionate work of generations today and past.
The bill Senator King and I wrote will help young Mainers carry on our proud forestry tradition by gaining hands-on experience in family logging operations.
America’s free trade doctrine has decimated the working class and enriched foreign countries at their expense. A new system is sorely needed.

CFPB puts up real guardrails to protect Americans from abusive business practices. They put money back in people’s pockets.
If there are problems, let’s fix them. But gutting or eliminating CFPB would be bad for working-class families.
Maine fishermen know that the energy industrialization of the Gulf threatens generations of sustainable fishing jobs.
Appreciate the support for my bill banning offshore wind development in LMA1:

This is the system working. The courts are the appropriate venue to resolve the many legitimate questions raised recently about the separation of powers and disputes between Congress and the executive branch about the law. I expect the administration to follow the court order — and the law.
Had a meaningful conversation with Chief Clarissa Sabattis, Rosa McNally, and Joshua Toner today about the unique issues facing the Houlton Band of Maliseets.
I've always stood with Maine’s tribes, and am committed to the important work ahead.
Let’s keep the conversation about tariffs honest by telling the full story:
Any day regulators listen to lobstermen is a good day for Maine.
Yesterday's decision by ASMFC to repeal its proposed gauge increase is a direct result of Maine harvesters’ pushing back against this drastic and unnecessary rule change. I’m proud to have stood at their side.
Musk is stepping on the president’s toes — making decisions without his approval, pursuing his own agenda. If I had an employee that sidelined me the way Musk is sidelining Trump, I don’t think I’d just sit back and take it.
