Stories like Alex’s are powerful reminders of why protecting Medicaid isn’t just policy. It’s personal.

So glad I got a chance to meet Alex and his family in DC last week.
Alex lives with a rare genetic condition that requires 24/7 care. Thanks to Medicaid, his family can ensure he gets the complex medical support he needs to thrive.
As we honor Juneteenth, let us acknowledge not only the power of Black resilience and freedom, but the moral imperative of confronting the wrongs of a not-so-distant past—and righting them once and for all. (4/4)
In the scourge of mass incarceration.
In targeted voter suppression.
In the ever-growing wealth gap.
In health and education disparities.
In environmental injustice.
In so many systemic inequalities that persist to this day. (3/4)
To be sure, our country has made a lot of progress since that day in Galveston, Texas in 1865, when the last enslaved Black Americans finally learned they were freed.
Sadly, the legacy of slavery is not confined to the past. We see its devastating impacts all around us. (2/4)
For some, 160 years ago might feel like ancient history. But for the Black community, and the millions whose ancestors endured the unfathomable traumas of slavery, the origins of Juneteenth are painfully recent. (1/4)
Instead of going after the most dangerous people, ICE has chosen instead to terrorize our communities and sow fear among law-abiding residents.
It’s morally and legally indefensible, erodes trust in government, jeopardizes public safety, and undermines the very values our country holds dear. (3/3)
As someone who has long worked in Congress to fix our broken immigration system and correct the cumbersome work permit authorization process, the reports of workplace sweeps and of people with valid work permits being detained by ICE are particularly disturbing. (2/3)
The Trump Administration has made it abundantly clear that it will stop at nothing to meet its insane deportation goals, even if it means sweeping up immigrants who have taken every step required to live and work here and continue to follow the law—including corrections officers. (1/3)
That's why Senator Lisa Murkowski @whitehouse.senate.gov, Congressman James Moylan, and I reintroduced the bipartisan Coastal Communities Ocean Acidification Act, which provides the science-based support local communities need to fight back. It’s time Congress acts.
We now know that parts of our oceans have reached dangerous acidification levels earlier than expected.
That means lobsters, shellfish, and Maine’s $700 billion fishing industry are in trouble.
Let me be clear: the President does *not* have the authority to take us to war with Iran without the approval of Congress.
The last thing we need is to be thrust into another forever war. Congress must assert its Constitutional authority and insist on blocking further hostilities with Iran. (2/2)
Proud to join this effort to stop the President from unilaterally pushing us into war.
This is a dangerous moment for our country, for people across the Middle East, and for the world. Nuclear non-proliferation in Iran does not need to be achieved at the business end of a ballistic missile. (1/2)
After attending several #NoKings rallies Saturday (and wearing a rain jacket), I stopped by Brunswick Pride, where hundreds came out to enjoy the sunshine—and stand in solidarity with the LGBTQI+ community🌈
On a day that was all about resistance + resilience, this was the perfect way to cap it off.
To all the fathers, grandfathers, stepdads, father figures, and caregivers—here in Maine, across the country, and around the world:
Happy Father’s Day!
Standing loud and proud with Maine to say there are #NoKings in America! 🇺🇸
The targeted political attacks in Minnesota are horrifying. My family there has told me how shaken the state is.
Assaults on those who serve the public are assaults on democracy itself.
I’m holding the victims, their families, and all Minnesotans in my heart.
Tomorrow, millions will gather in cities and towns across the country to protest the reckless actions of an out-of-control President.
I’m proud to stand with them.
This is a critical moment for our country. We must meet it—together.
Read my latest op-ed for @bangordailynews.bsky.social 👇
We have no details, no plan, and no assurance that this won’t put lives and communities at greater risk. Wildfire prevention demands coordination, not chaos.
If he truly cared about protecting Americans from wildfires, he would work with Congress—not bulldoze ahead with a half-baked reorganization.
