Their stories are woven into the fabric of every city and town Maine.
Their service, and the service and sacrifices of their families, has been immeasurable.
It’s on all of us to ensure that these contributions—and the impacts they’ve had on our state—are never forgotten. (3/3)

Thousands have given their lives—for our country, for the values we hold dear, and for the special place they called home.
Their impacts have been felt far beyond the battlefield. Our vets have been shipbuilders and farmers. Educators and entrepreneurs. Public servants and community leaders. (2/3)
Through their service and sacrifice, Maine’s veterans haven’t just made our state great. They’ve helped shape our country.
During the Civil War, Maine sent a higher % of its population to fight than any other Union state. Mainers have served with distinction in every major conflict since. (1/3)
Asked point-blank if he’ll bring ACA extensions to the floor, Speaker Johnson bolted. We know the answer already. He won’t.
Further proof that Republicans don’t care about bringing your health care costs down.
A deal that lets ACA credits expire fails the millions of families counting on us to keep their health care affordable.
Republicans have spent years trying to dismantle the ACA, and pretending Johnson will allow a vote on a clean ACA bill in the House is a fantasy.
I will be a no on this “deal.”
🚨BREAKING: The cruelty of this Administration keeps reaching new extremes. Trump’s USDA is ordering states to UNDO the work already done to feed millions of hungry families, kids, and seniors. It’s abhorrent, it’s chaotic, and it’s indefensible.
🚨BREAKING🚨
After appealing yesterday’s ruling to release *all* SNAP benefits for November, the Administration is backing down.
Remember: These funds are available. They tried to block them anyway.
They’re clearly feeling the pressure. Let's hope this sticks—and every last SNAP dollar is paid out.
No one is excusing China’s heavy reliance on coal (let alone its repression and human rights abuses). But the lesson here is clear:
Investing in clean energy isn’t just an ethical imperative—it’s an economic one.
By going green, we SAVE green!
While Republicans continue to subsidize fossil fuel giants and sabotage investments in renewables, China is sprinting into the future—and leaving us in the dust.
887 gigawatts of solar capacity. More than double what the U.S. and Europe have *combined*.
The scope and scale are simply staggering.
While it’s sad to lose such a trusted and cherished resource, I want to thank the Geiger family for stewarding this iconic journal for generations.
The impact the Almanac has had on farmers across the country—and here in Maine—is immeasurable. (3/3)
As a longtime organic farmer, I’ve used the Almanac more times than I can count. Not just for its predictions on how hard the Maine winter will be, but for advice on the best days to plant, tips for preserving food, and *so* much other helpful information (and wisdom). (2/3)
Just about everyone’s heard of the Farmer’s Almanac. What most people don’t know is that, for more than 200 years, it’s been produced right here in Maine.
Yesterday, Geiger—the Lewiston-based company that’s published the Almanac since 1818—announced it will discontinue publication. (1/3)
A judge ordered the Trump Administration to pay full SNAP benefits.
Their response? Immediately appeal the ruling.
They’re going to court to keep 42 million hungry Americans from getting food.
Shameful.
NEW: A federal judge ordered the Trump admin to fund food stamps in full this month. Pretty quickly, DOJ said it would appeal.
Now, millions of poor families are in limbo, and it is not entirely clear if/when they're going to see *any* SNAP payments in Nov.

I’ve been honored to serve with Nancy Pelosi my entire time in Congress—and to see her passion, determination and resolve in action.
Never were these traits more evident than during the fight to pass the Affordable Health Care.
Without her, this transformative legislation would’ve never happened.
Why is this happening? Republicans have spent years siding with energy monopolies, blocking investments in renewables, and propping up fossil fuel giants.
The only way to bring costs down *and* protect families from price spikes is to break our dependence on fossil fuels—and embrace renewables.
Of all the (many) wild promises Trump made, claiming he'd cut electricity prices *BY HALF* might’ve been the craziest.
According to new data, electricity costs have increased in 47 of 50 states since 2024.
Maine is one of 10 states where consumers are paying at least 10% more—or ~$200 per year.
@senangusking.bsky.social and I led 70+ Members of Congress demanding the Administration fix this bureaucratic nightmare and reinstate automatic renewals.
Let's stop punishing people for following the law.
Immigrants with work permits are vital to our economy—in health care, agriculture, education, and beyond.
The Trump Administration ended automatic renewals for these workers, forcing thousands out of jobs while USCIS drowns in backlogs.
It's totally ridiculous—and needlessly cruel.
It has been one of the great privileges of my career to serve alongside Nancy Pelosi.
Her legacy will endure in every law she helped pass, every family she lifted up, and every woman who now believes she can make change at the highest levels. (4/4)
She has made immense sacrifices to advance progress—even as she was vilified by Republicans, nearly killed by a MAGA mob in the Capitol, and targeted because of radical rhetoric from that led to her husband being violently assaulted in their home.
Through it all, her courage never wavered. (3/4)
