I asked Mainers to share how losing ACA tax credits would affect them.
The responses I got are devastating: premiums becoming more than mortgages, seniors falling into debt, families forced to choose between health care and basic needs.
This is the human cost of Republicans’ health care crisis.
🧵
I'll be joining Democratic Women's Caucus Chair @fernandez.house.gov LIVE TONIGHT at 8 p.m. to answer your questions about the looming government shutdown and how Republicans got us in this mess.

Republicans blocked my amendment to strike this dangerous rider, and I spoke with Spotlight on America about why we must strip it from the final bill.
WATCH 👇
Toxic PFAS sludge is being spread on farmland, contaminating our food and water. EPA was set to take action, but a rider slipped into the Interior funding bill would stop that work cold.

No one is above the law—but when prosecutions appear driven by political score-settling, public trust in our justice system erodes.
The American people deserve accountability *and* assurance that this process is fair, impartial, and rooted in facts, not vendettas.
For Interior to parrot this kind of unhinged political rhetoric as justification for erasing its own educational materials is truly appalling.
As the top Democrat on the subcommittee that oversees Interior + NPS, I'm fighting to #SaveOurSigns.
Our parks—and its millions of visitors—deserve better.
When pressed about the idiotic decisions this Administration makes—like removing fact-based information from our National Parks—their default justification is “brainless fear-mongering rhetoric."
Climate change? Not real.
Indigenous heritage? Woke.
Slavery? Not that bad 🤷♀
Give me a break.
Now, Russ Vought is threatening mass layoffs (NOT furloughs).
He said these layoffs could be avoided only if Democrats support the bill.
This isn't governance. It’s extortion.
Democrats will not be bullied into supporting a bill that drives up health care costs for millions of Americans. (2/2)
Let’s lay out the facts. Republicans:
🔴 Control the White House
🔴 Have majorities in the House + Senate
🔴 Tried to pass a terrible stopgap that hurts families
🔴 Failed in the Senate
🔴 Refuse to negotiate
And they want to blame Democrats for any potential shutdown?
They can't be serious. (1/2)
Why the Administration would choose to lapse this funding is beyond comprehension.
This will make our communities less safe, less responsive, and force organizations like Preble Street to cut back on other services.
I will do all I can to ensure the Administration releases these vital funds.
I’m deeply alarmed to hear that Preble Street could be denied funding to support victims of human trafficking.
These grants have provided critical resources to hundreds of survivors across Maine—from emergency housing and mental health services to job training.
They've literally saved lives.
After months of needless delay, the USDA has finally released $50 million for the farmer-led SARE program, which provides critical funding for research, education, and innovation.
I’m so relieved that our pressure worked—and that these resources will now reach the farmers who need them most.
THIS. This is the ENTIRE point.
It’s not about Jimmy Kimmel or Stephen Colbert or saving late night television. It’s about protecting free speech and not fearing retribution from the government if you criticize or offend the president.
Glad to see Kimmel back on the air 👏🏻
Trump's address to the United Nations was an absolute disgrace—an unhinged missive full of incoherent tangents, petty grievances, and flat-out lies.
As a citizen of the world, I’m embarrassed.
As an American, even more so.
This isn’t leadership. It’s a wannabe emperor without any clothes.
No administration should be allowed to use blatant discrimination to decide which artists or arts organizations receive federal funding.
The fight continues to save the NEA from Trump, but this is an encouraging victory to be sure.
Some good news: a federal judge ruled that the NEA’s policy of rejecting grants based on “gender ideology” violates the First Amendment.
As the ACLU said, “Even when the government funds private speech, it does not get to support only those messages that parrot its views.”
I couldn’t agree more.
I will continue pressing until Congress, town officials, community leaders, and the public get the oversight and accountability we are entitled to.
ICE cannot continue to operate in the shadows.
Congress has a constitutional duty to oversee federal agencies.
Blocking attorneys from routine check-ins with their clients and shutting out officials is a direct assault on due process and the rule of law.
I’m calling on DHS to disclose and repeal any policy that denies access to legal counsel.
