Withholding their funding is illegal. Full stop. It disrupts local economies, puts good jobs at risk, and grinds federal progress to a halt.
Given that the law explicitly requires these funds be obligated within 60 days, we are well past the deadline.

Once again, the Trump Administration is withholding funding already approved by Congress—in this case, for Tribal + State Historic Preservation Offices.
These offices are not ceremonial. They are legally required to consult on federal projects and ensure compliance with historic preservation laws.
Scientists have been laid off. Students + small businesses are caught in the crossfire—all to serve an extreme agenda that damages our global leadership in research and development in the name of corporate power and political retribution.
These sudden cancellations are gutting world-class research in renewable energy, PFAS mitigation, rural workforce safety, and so much more.
Some of these cuts were ordered as part of the President’s childish political vendetta against Maine, while other cuts were national in scope.
They’re all examples of this admin’s illegal attempts to impound congressionally-approved spending + disregard national priorities at the President’s whim.
Medicaid and Planned Parenthood are vital lifelines for hundreds of thousands of Mainers. Republicans want to rip them away, just so they can line the pockets of the ultra-wealthy.
The American people deserve better than this. (5/5)
I’m deeply grateful to Michaela, Travy, and Meredith for sharing their stories and helping make clear what’s at stake. (4/5)
We heard from a veteran who relied on Planned Parenthood for decades.
A mother whose early care allowed her to build a career.
A woman whose access to timely treatment enabled her to start a family.
These are hardworking Mainers whose lives were vastly improved because of PPNNE. (3/5)
Today, Planned Parenthood of Northern New England (PPNNE) and I hosted a roundtable discussion with patient advocates to shed light on the devastating impacts Republicans' bill will have on the health and wellbeing of people across the country. (2/5)
🧵
Last week, House Republicans passed a bill that will rip health coverage away from 13.7 million Americans to fund massive tax breaks for billionaires and big corporations.
The bill also specifically prohibits Medicaid funding for Planned Parenthood clinics across the country. (1/5)
Many rural hospitals like Inland are already hanging on by a thread. Over 300 across the country are at immediate risk of closing. Slashing Medicaid means fewer providers, shuttered ERs, and entire communities left without care.
But hey, billionaires need their tax breaks, right?!
Northern Light Inland Hospital in Waterville has officially closed its doors. This is a devastating loss for Mainers.
And if House Republicans get their way with $880 billion in Medicaid cuts, it won’t be the last.

We owe it to all our fallen heroes—wherever they called home—to never forget their sacrifice, and to always look after the loved ones they left behind.
This is what #MemorialDay is really about. 🇺🇸
A day to honor heroes like Specialist Joseph Alan Lucas of Bath, who was killed in Iraq at just 23, and Specialist Wade Slack of Waterville, who died in Afghanistan shortly after turning 21. Both gave their lives in service to our country—making the ultimate sacrifice for the freedoms we hold dear.
For most Americans, #MemorialDay is about backyard BBQs, trips to the lake, + being with loved ones.
For many, however, it’s a day of remembrance. A day to honor the brave people left home to defend their families and communities—and our freedoms—from those who would do us harm.
Less than 24 hours after Republicans passed his “Big Beautiful Bill” without a single Democratic vote, jeopardizing the health and wellbeing of millions of Americans, President Trump is hosting a secret dinner for “investors” of his meme coin.
The corruption is simply staggering.
I am horrified by last night’s murder of two Israeli Embassy staffers—a terrible tragedy and act of antisemitic violence that must be condemned in the strongest terms.
My thoughts are with the victims’ loved ones, the entire Jewish community, and all those affected by this horrific attack.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social fought tirelessly to expose + oppose this bill at every turn.
The American people deserve to understand what happened today: House Republicans deliberately chose their ultra-rich donors over the well-being and financial security of everyday Americans.
My full statement:
The CBO has weighed in on the Big Bad Billionaire Bill:
If your income is in the bottom 10%? Tough!
The top 10%? You’re cashing in!
It'd be one of the largest transfers of wealth in U.S. history.
Republicans are abandoning the people they claim to represent—just to make the rich even richer.
If Republicans pass this disastrous bill:
🚨 50,000 Mainers will get kicked off their health care.
🚨 Children in our state will go hungry.
🚨 The rich will get richer.
🚨 The poor will get poorer.
🚨 The deficit will grow by $4 trillion.
No wonder they met in the middle of the night to finalize it.
