Lifelong Mainer, leader, and mom who knows how to get things done. Candidate for Governor.
I was inspired to join Maine nurses for a vigil this evening in Portland to honor the life of Alex Pretti. Our state has been through a lot the past couple of weeks but Mainers keep showing up for each other. Nurses do the heavy lifting caring for us, and they always show up for their communities.

This is both outrageous and heartbreaking. Senator Susan Collins has the power to stop funding this terror. Keep calling and standing up! We need ICE OUT of Maine. NOW!

Serving with Senator Lynn Bromley in the Legislature showed me, every day, what thoughtful, principled leadership looks like: listening first, doing the hard work, and never losing sight of serving Maine people.

Calling for more “training” for ICE while ignoring the reality on the ground isn’t leadership. It’s avoidance. Senator Collins must vote NO on the DHS budget. This is about accountability, human decency, and stopping lawless abuse of power.

With Trump attacking our healthcare system, supporting nurses—especially in rural Maine—is more critical than ever. Houlton Regional’s nurses are among the lowest paid and have gone nearly a year without a contract. I’m grateful they’re standing up for patient safety and fair wages.
Houlton nurses start 2-day strike
Houlton Regional Hospital nurses strike over staffing, retention, and contract negotiations. Long wait times and stalled negotiations prompt action.

Trump’s plan to slash funding for permanent housing threatens Maine’s most vulnerable, risking half of the state’s homelessness-prevention funds. At a time of rising housing costs, Maine’s next Governor must fight to protect affordable housing.

As I’ve worked on Maine’s Housing Affordability Plan, one thing is clear: Washington isn’t helping. Trump’s 50-year mortgage plan isn’t viable—it dumps debt on families and boosts big banks. Maine’s next governor must fight for housing people can truly afford.
3 questions about Trump's 50-year mortgage plan
Experts in the mortgage industry are skeptical. Buyers would pay less each month, but would end up paying more over time. Here's what to know about the proposed 50-year mortgages.

Some rare good news today from the US Supreme Court which just turned down a request to reconsider gay marriage and the Obergefell decision. I was the lead co-sponsor of gay marriage in 2009 as Speaker of the House, and I know how important it is to stand up for and uphold equality for all families.

170,000 Mainers won’t get their monthly SNAP food support they depend on this November because of the government shutdown.
