By the way, if you ever get a chance to see the Celtics in action at the Portland Expo Center, it’s a *great* time (and very family friendly). You’re basically watching NBA-caliber players in a high school gym. Oh, and their mascot is a green lobster. Just another reason to love Maine!

It’s not every day you get to share a flight with a pro basketball team! Turns out, the Maine Celtics—Boston’s G-League affiliate—were on their way to D.C. for a showdown with the Capital City Go-Go. Good luck to the guys in green. If we can get our work done, maybe I'll go check out the game!

More competition ➡️ more opportunities for small farmers ➡️ more choices *and* lower prices. As we await a new farm bill, my Democratic colleagues and I will keep fighting for programs that actually help farmers and create more resilience in our food system—not line the pockets of giant corporations.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 9(source)

Third, as this video explains, too much of this money will end up in the coffers of Bayer, Pioneer, and other Big Ag giants. If we really want to help our farmers (especially small farmers), one thing we absolutely need to do is reverse the insane consolidation that’s taken over the sector. (3/4)

Second, $12 billion is about 1/4 of what farmers actually need right now. It also doesn’t cover specialty crops (like potatoes here in Maine), which means a whole lot of farms will be left behind. (2/4)

Trump Farmer Bailout Primarily Benefits Commodity Farms

Of the $12 billion the administration will send to farmers, $11 billion is reserved for ranchers and major row crop farmers.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 9(source)

🧵 Trump says he’s using “tariff money” to send $12 billion in aid to American farmers. (Remember, Argentina got $40 billion. Guess they're more important!) First of all, let's not forget *why* American farmers need to be bailed out in the first place: Trump's tariffs and trade wars! (1/4)

Wyden Says Trump's $12 Billion Farmer Bailout Exposes Folly of 'Destructive Tariff Spree' | Common Dreams

"Donald Trump’s trade war is taxing families, killing markets for our farm goods, and driving farmers into bankruptcy," said Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden.

People are signing documents they don't understand without legal counsel present. That's a violation of due process. I'll keep fighting for transparency and accountability, especially as the Trump Administration ramps up its immigration enforcement policies. (2/2)

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 9(source)

I toured the Scarborough ICE facility to get answers about why attorneys are being denied access to their clients. The contractor in charge of the check-ins wasn't even there—despite my request. They claimed there’s not enough space for attorneys, but that's bullshit. There's plenty of room. (1/2)

Shopping secondhand cuts waste and keeps dollars circulating in our communities instead of disappearing into big-box supply chains. Sustainable. Affordable. Maine to the core. (and Slow Fashion Caucus approved!) ♻️ 🌎

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 8(source)

Rising prices and sluggish wage growth are making holiday shopping even more stressful this year. But if there’s one thing Mainers are great at, it’s being resourceful: taking used or forgotten wares and making them new again. Thrift stores + reuse shops are full of gems if you know where to look!

Thrifting for Christmas helps shoppers save money, buy sustainably

Resale shops, thrift stores and antiques malls across Maine make it possible to find unique vintage and handcrafted holiday gifts at bargain prices.

To all our immigrant neighbors: You are wanted. You are valued members of our communities. You belong here. We will continue to fight for you.

This is a critical step toward giving farmers the tools they need to safeguard their operations while federal and state agencies confront PFAS head on.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 5(source)

PFAS isn't some faraway crisis. Maine farmers are confronting it *right now*. They deserve real federal support. That’s why Sen. Collins and I introduced the Relief for Farmers Hit with PFAS Act, which would create a USDA program to test for contamination, compensate farmers + improve remediation.

What happened to the Andres is truly awful, and shows just how heartless Trump’s crackdown has become. Seeing hundreds of students march in support of their classmates is so inspiring. “An injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.” These kids get it. It's an honor to represent them.

Portland high school students protest ICE in walkout to City Hall

More than 500 students from public and private schools in the city showed up in recognition of 2 Portland high schoolers detained by immigration officials last month.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 4(source)

If they defy the courts and follow through with these threats, they'll be undermining the very transparency they claim to care about, leading to more delays, more errors and more uncertainty. They’re hellbent on sabotaging SNAP—and making life infinitely harder for the 170K Mainers who rely on it.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 4(source)

States already provide data to ensure the integrity of SNAP. Now, the USDA is threatening to withhold admin funds if states don't hand over personal info for MILLIONS of people. Maine is among the states fighting this egregious overreach in the courts, which have temporarily blocked USDA’s demands.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 3(source)

Trump loves to talk about how he ended [8? 9? 500?] wars. The one time he helps? He makes it all about himself—affixing his name to the façade of the U.S. Institute of Peace, an independent agency over which the White House has *zero* authority. He’ll do anything to feed his delusions of grandeur.

Building gets a new name: The ‘Donald J. Trump’ Institute of Peace

The change comes as Trump’s administration has touted his peace deals and ahead of a signing of a deal between the leaders from Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo this week.

The ferry that runs between Rockland and Matinicus that bears his name is a daily reminder of the remarkable Mainer who gave so much to this country and to the Penobscot Nation. My thoughts are with his family, his loved ones, and the entire Penobscot community. Maine will never forget him.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govDec 3(source)

Maine lost an extraordinary hero today. Charles Norman Shay lived a life defined by courage and service. From landing on Omaha Beach at just 19 years old and saving lives during the war, to preserving Penobscot history and honoring Native veterans, he left an indelible mark on Maine and the world.

New Maine ferry to be named after heroic Penobscot veteran

Charles Norman Shay is believed to be the last living Native American who stormed the beaches of Normandy, according to the Maine Department of Transportation.

The White House is scrambling to rewrite the narrative about the boat strikes off the coast of Venezuela, including a second strike that was ordered on survivors who clung to the wreckage. Congress needs answers.
