Republicans know their cuts to SNAP and local food program will do tremendous harm.
No data, no problem, right?
Ignoring hunger will not make it go away.

The USDA announced it’s ending a longstanding food insecurity survey.
“These redundant, costly, extraneous studies do nothing more than fearmonger,” they said.
Fear is being a single mom worrying about how to feed your kids.
Fear is having to choose between your prescription and your next meal.
This Rosh Hashanah, let us all take a moment to acknowledge the many beautiful ideas this holiday represents—reflection, renewal, togetherness, hope for a better future—that we may carry them forward. In our lives, in our communities, and with mutual respect.
L’Shanah Tovah to all who celebrate!
It’s one thing to implement a change like this gradually, but doing it this way will cause so much unnecessary stress and hardship for so many people.
I was proud to join the Maine delegation in sounding the alarm on the potential impacts of this order—and call for a more reasonable implementation.
I’m all for reducing waste. But eliminating paper checks for all federal payments—including Social Security and tax refunds—is totally shortsighted.
Not only will this disproportionately affect older Mainers (and those in rural + tribal communities); it could also harm our forest products industry.
Our national parks are not billboards for propaganda.
I’m calling on Secretary Burgum to reverse this order immediately and restore what’s been erased.
The National Park System does not belong to any administration. It belongs to the American people.
Slavery.
Japanese internment.
Climate change.
The Trump Administration is whitewashing history.
Stripping away factual, science-based, and historically accurate information is an outrageous assault on the right to learn, and prevents us from confronting the hard truths about our country.
Special shoutout to Penny Jordan of Jordan's Farm in Cape Elizabeth, who was kind enough to show us around her beautiful property—and give viewers a better a better sense of how farms like hers are learning to adapt.
Huge thanks to @cnn.com for coming up to Maine and seeing firsthand how our farmers are dealing with climate change, industry consolidation, and an Administration hellbent on making their lives harder.

I’m so proud that this year’s @farmaid.org has come out in support of my Agriculture Resilience Act, which would give farmers across the country the resources they need to become more resilient, more adaptable, and more dynamic. #farmaid40
“Protect free speech,” Trump said.
Then he silenced Colbert and Kimmel.
Banning books, removing images of slavery, “examining” Smithsonian exhibits, threatening FCC licenses…
BULLSHIT. This is censorship!
We won’t let him erase history, muzzle critics, or rewrite truth.
We stand with Jimmy.
Once again, instead of working with Democrats on a spending bill that actually helps the American people, Republicans just jammed through a continuing resolution that:
🚨 Raises health care costs
🚨 Upholds the Admin's illegal funding cuts
🚨 Empowers Trump
I voted “Hell No" on this terrible bill.
Republican policies are causing higher costs across the board.
Now they want to force millions of Americans to pay the equivalent of an extra mortgage every month for health care?
Mainers deserve better than a party that consistently chooses to protect big corporations over working families.
54,000 Mainers on Affordable Care Act plans currently receive an enhanced premium tax credit, saving them hundreds a month.
If that credit goes away at the end of the year, many will no longer be able to afford insurance.
In some places, premiums could rise by 70% or more.
This is bad news.
Media companies that cave to Trump's pressure are complicit. It’s cowardly, it’s dangerous, and it paves the way for authoritarian control.
House Democrats will make sure the American people learn the truth behind this insidious decision.
This assault on free speech will not be forgotten.
First Colbert. Now Kimmel.
Who’s next?
This is straight out of the authoritarian playbook: Go after the big voices, and hope everyone else shuts the hell up.
Trump is weaponizing the government to silence dissent.
For a party that talks so much about free speech, this is the height of hypocrisy.
Today, we sounded the alarm on the EPA's reckless rollbacks—and the mounting impacts of climate change.
We have the tools and expertise to lead the world on climate solutions and build a booming economy.
What we don’t have is an Administration that's rooted in reality—or understands science.
Once upon a time, Lee Zeldin and I worked together on regulating PFAS. I reminded him of this shortly after he took over the EPA.
His response?
“Back then I represented constituents. Now I work for this Administration.”
That says it all.
The truth doesn’t matter. Only blind loyalty to Trump.
Today, members of the Sustainable Energy + Environment Coalition are joining climate advocates to oppose the EPA’s insane rollbacks.
This Administration’s climate denialism is jeopardizing the health, wellbeing and livelihoods of millions of Americans.
I’ll be talking about Maine impacts shortly.👇
Families entrust their children to schools expecting that the federal government will not bring political theater to the schoolhouse gate, especially if such activity could be conducted elsewhere.
This cannot happen again.
