In Maine, we show up, speak honestly, and take care of one another. It's time for our leaders to do the same. That’s why I am ready to dedicate my skills and expertise to MOVING MAINE FORWARD in the U.S. Senate.
We must fix and restore to military service our trans service members.
If someone is willing to take a bullet to the face for your ability to openly hate their existence. You know what you do?
You sit down and say, "Thank you for your service"

One of the many reforms that are deeply needed is for the government to cover COBRA costs while someone is actively looking for a job.
I'm with you, Tia, I and millions of good, hard-working Americans. It's going to take time, sticking together, and lots of helping each other, though things will get better.
I feel awful. The country is crappy and people are cruel and my son got fired and I’m just really sad. People need healthcare and I’m frightened and I can’t understand republicans. My lab lost funding and we’ve had layoffs. I’m worried.
Today sucks.
Sorry guys.
I just needed to get it all out.

Question for all you @grahamformaine.bsky.social supporters out there.
Does he get a pass on lying, Nazi tattoos, homophobic comments, and excusing sexual assault, because he’s a veteran?
Cause he chose that, multiple times, got out, and chose it again as a contractor.
So I’m really lost. Thanks.

I’m running because I want my kids to grow up in a better world than the one we’re currently living with.
One where they can thrive and belong to communities that encourage and protect them.
Where respect for individual freedoms and healthy disagreements mean we still eat together as Americans!

Government is serious business for serious people.
The people of Maine deserve a senator who can fight for their needs because they understand how government works.
You can’t fight a system that you don’t understand.
I’ve spent my life developing systems and making government more efficient.

While @grahamformaine.bsky.social was using a fake name on reddit to make homophobic slurs, I was out there publicly standing up to Army leadership about how the Army needs to do better at supporting LGBTQ+ Soldiers and families.

I remember ignorantly thinking I knew how bad the President’s social media was going to be and that it couldn’t be worse than the first term.
I was so very very wrong.

Honored to attend the Faith and Freedom Rally in Presque Isle to remember and bring healing in the wake of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.
Violence and hatred have no place in our politics or our country. That’s why I’m fighting to bring respect, truth, and common ground back to our public life.

Standing here in Fort Kent at "America's First Mile," I’m reminded of U.S. Rte 1’s powerful impact on our state, our economy, and our unity of life. As I begin my campaign, I commit to a similar mission — to Move Maine Forward, connect people together, and build a future that is lasting and strong.

A gorgeous morning in Fort Kent. Attending the American Legion Breakfast this morning is just the first stop in a busy weekend traveling across the county to meet with people, listen to their concerns, and share ideas about how we can Move Maine Forward together.

What an absolutely beautiful and wonderful night! So grateful to have spent time with those who were able to attend the Veteran & Federal Civilian Appreciation Dinner. Also thankful to Governor's Restaurant for catering the event. Delicious food, good company, and an evening well-spent!
