What an uplifting way to end the week: visiting the beautiful Ogunquit Museum of American Art and hearing their amazing team discuss the importance of creating a space where local and global voices come together—and people of all ages can appreciate the power of art. Pretty incredible view, too!

Earlier this month, I spent a day with Michael Dimock of @rootsofchange.bsky.social‬. We talked about my work on the Agriculture Committee, Trump's disastrous policies, and how we continue fighting for a more healthy and equitable food system. Big thanks to Michael for coming out to North Haven!

While there have been some troubling rulings—SCOTUS's decision to allow Trump to cut off NIH grants; his $500 million civil fraud penalty being dismissed—the wins are mounting. According to @lawfaremedia.org, the Administration is losing the vast majority of its cases. Checks and balances matter.

Some good news: Trump keeps taking massive Ls in court. In just the past few weeks, courts have: ❌ Ordered him to unfreeze $95M for the National Endowment for Democracy ❌ Blocked him from erasing a public spending database ❌ Ruled that his personal attorney’s federal appointment was illegal

Things the White House finds “objectionable” about the Smithsonian: 😱 An exhibit about voting rights 😱 Migrants watching fireworks 😱 A Pride flag 😱 Too many mentions of slavery Their message is clear: *Trump* decides what facts and perspectives people should learn. This is what dictators do.

You know the worst parts of the Big Ugly Bill: $1 trillion in Medicaid cuts; slashing SNAP by $200 billion; massive tax breaks for the rich; $4.1 trillion added to the deficit. But there are *lots* of crazy provisions you probably haven’t heard about. Read my latest op-ed for @pressherald.com👇

Rep. Chellie Pingree: Five crazy things you may not know about the Big, Ugly Bill | Opinion

The devil is in the detail.

Supporting Maine businesses has always been one of my top priorities. That’s why I’m committed to fighting back against this Administration’s reckless policies that threaten jobs and put our economy at risk. Thank you to Patrick and John for the thoughtful conversation and great questions. LISTEN👇

It’s just another example of how the Trump Administration’s reckless cuts to popular, successful federal programs will put more of a burden on state budgets—and our communities.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 21(source)

In 2021, Maine became one of the first states to offer free school lunches for all students. It’s been a huge success, saving Maine families around $160 a month. But with Republicans' Big Ugly Bill cutting $186 billion from SNAP, this game-changing initiative is now in jeopardy.

SNAP cuts could impact Maine’s free lunch for students in the long term

School districts will continue to offer lunches at no cost, but changes in eligibility for food assistance could result in less federal funding in the future.

Slamming the brakes on farm solar/wind, gutting REAP.... Trump’s USDA is forcing farmers to pay more while denying them tools to survive a changing climate. This is pure ideology, not reality.

Last week, I wrote to the President about his unprecedented attempt to undermine the Smithsonian’s curatorial independence. We cannot allow him to erase the truth and rewrite our history. #HandsOff the Smithsonian. pingree.house.gov/news/documen...

Pingree Slams Trump’s Blatant Attempt to Rewrite and Recast U.S. History with Smithsonian ‘Review’

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 19(source)

And sending attorneys to comb through exhibits? That’s not oversight. It’s a chilling step toward an authoritarian takeover of America’s most treasured institutions.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 19(source)

Trump wants the Smithsonian to downplay slavery. The president doesn’t have the legal authority or the ethical right to rewrite history. There is no upside to centuries of forced labor, systemic violence, + stolen freedom. Trying to spin slavery as a positive is white supremacy, plain and simple.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 19(source)

That’s why I’ve introduced the Commitment to Aid Workers Act—to hold perpetrators accountable, protect those on the frontlines, and ensure U.S. support never goes to governments that target humanitarian workers. We must do more than honor their courage. We must act.

Pingree Unveils Bill to Protect Aid Workers in Global Conflict Zones

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 19(source)

Today, on World Humanitarian Day, the UN reported a grim milestone: a record 383 aid workers were killed in 2024—nearly half in Gaza. These men and women risk their lives to deliver food, medicine, and hope. Their murders are a stain on the conscience of the world.

The U.N. humanitarian office says a record 383 aid workers were killed in global hotspots in 2024, nearly half of them in Gaza during the war between Israel and Hamas.

Modern tools like GPS + digital charts are useful, but they must complement—not replace—the visual markers that mariners rely on for safety. Thanks to everyone who raised their voice. I’ll keep fighting to ensure Maine’s coastal communities are heard.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 19(source)

GREAT news: After outrage from Maine’s coastal communities—fishermen, boaters, and residents alike—and a strong bipartisan push I led in Congress, USCG has paused its ridiculous plan to remove nearly 150 navigational buoys.

Trump isn’t trying to “restore honesty.” He’s trying to rig the system. Seniors, service members, rural Mainers, people with disabilities be damned. His executive order fantasy is illegal, unconstitutional, and straight from the authoritarian playbook. Mail ballots are safe and secure. Period.

Trump Administration Live Updates: President Says He’ll ‘Lead a Movement’ to Eliminate Mail-In Ballots

There was zero reason to think Putin would negotiate in good faith, and every indication he would keep playing Trump. This time, face to face. Congress must stand with Ukraine, pass new sanctions, deliver more aid, + put real pressure on Russia to end the war and bring about a just, lasting peace.

Congresswoman Chellie Pingree@pingree.house.govAug 16(source)

The “great dealmaker” made no deal, no progress, no effort to end the war Putin started. Instead, he normalized a dictator responsible for waging an unprovoked invasion. Diplomacy—even with adversaries—should aim to end brutal conflicts, not hand out PR victories.
