What do a Republican from Ohio and a Democrat from Maine have in common?
A deep belief that the arts are essential.
I led over 120 of my colleagues—Democrats AND Republicans—to demand Trump restore NEA grants, and stop steamrolling America’s arts and culture.

Eid Mubarak to all who celebrate. May today bring peace, joy, reflection, and renewed hope to you and your loved ones—and your communities.
It’s the Appropriations Committee’s job to do due diligence on the budget. Instead, Republicans handed the keys to DOGE—who know *nothing*.
Now, they’re cutting payments to farmers + taking food from children, then blaming it on a deficit THEY created!
Like sending the arsonist to put out a fire.
We should be working to fix our broken immigration system with smart, humane, and thoughtful policies—not shutting the door on people who are merely trying to build a better life for themselves and their families.
This isn’t who we are. This isn’t what America is about. (3/3)
Much like the travel bans imposed during the first Trump Administration, this isn’t about national security.
It’s about scapegoating immigrants and refugees.
It’s about telling people who’ve suffered and struggled and strived for a better life, “You don’t belong here. We don’t want you.” (2/3)
President Trump’s travel ban will lead to more chaos in our immigration system and further isolate us from the world.
It targets the most vulnerable among us. It will tear families apart, stop students from continuing their studies, and drive away some of the brightest minds in our country. (1/3)
Trump is trying to completely dismantle @noaa.gov. From monitoring fish populations to storm forecasting, our fishermen + working waterfronts rely on NOAA's science every single day.
Proud to stand alongside NOAA scientists + workers today to tell this Administration loud and clear: #HandsOff NOAA!
In fact, between January and May, the retail price of eggs has actually gone up—by quite a bit!
It’s one thing to cherry-pick numbers that make your policies look better. It’s another thing to openly deceive the American people. (2/2)
Remember when Trump promised to bring down egg prices "on Day 1”?
Well, it didn’t happen.
Then it kept not happening.
Now, the Secretary of Agriculture is claiming egg prices have fallen 61% since Trump took office.
One problem: This figure is based on *wholesale* data, not retail data. (1/2)
I’m proud to cosponsor the Equal Justice for Victims of Gun Violence Act, which repeals the liability shield that makes gun manufacturers the only industry that can’t be sued for reckless business practices.
Let's stand up to these companies—and start saving lives. #GunViolenceAwarenessMonth (2/2)
Gun violence took the lives of nearly 47,000 Americans in 2023.
More than half died by suicide.
Another 18,000 were victims of homicide.
18 were senselessly killed in the Lewiston shooting.
This isn't just a national crisis. It’s a moral failing. One we must have the courage to address. (1/2)
To unlock the full potential of Maine’s maritime economy, we must immediately reinvest in NOAA, expand USDA’s mission to better support seafood producers, and ensure that our coastal communities have the resources they need—and the funding they were promised. (2/2)
Huge thanks to the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation for inviting me to speak at today’s Capitol Hill Ocean Week event.
We know how vital fisheries are to Maine’s economy. But the recent funding cuts to @noaa.gov could have catastrophic consequences for our fishermen + coastal communities. (1/2)
The scale of the horror happening in Gaza right now is impossible to comprehend—and cannot be ignored.
This isn’t reciprocal warfare.
It isn't legitimate self-defense.
It’s collective punishment of a civilian population.
And it must be stopped. (2/2)
This is unconscionable.
For the third time in a week, the Israeli military opened fire on a crowd of Palestinians gathered near an aid distribution site in Gaza, killing more than 30 people and injuring nearly 200, according to local health officials. (1/2)
Everyone in this country, regardless of their nationality or legal status, has a right to due process.
We won’t stop fighting against any attempts to separate families and make our immigration system harder to navigate than it already is. (2/2)
Last week, Lucas Segobia and Marcos Henrique were pulled over on their way to work for having a crooked license plate. They were detained by Border Patrol. According to their loved ones, they’ve since been sent to an ICE facility in Texas.
They were on a path to becoming legal residents. (1/2)
As we celebrate Pride Month, let us honor this legacy—and the movement that inspired it—by doing our part to build a world where everyone feels safe, seen, accepted, valued, and loved. (3/3)
It took years of hard work and advocacy—and the bravery and conviction of countless people—to transform Ogunquit into the inclusive community it is today.
Artists. Activists. Business owners. Residents. All of them played a role. All of them had a hand in building something extraordinary. (2/3)
Whatever your identity or orientation, Ogunquit is a place that makes you feel welcome. A place where love is celebrated, community is cherished, and pride is part of the everyday landscape. A place where you can be yourself.
Sadly, this wasn’t always the case. (1/3)
