I stand with our Governor Janet Mills in calling for an end to these operations immediately. People are dying and law enforcement pitted against each other. This is dangerous for both civilians and law enforcement. There is no winning, end this.

What is wrong with giving a new leader a chance? A new approach, a fresh approach. Someone who has integrity, leadership skills, represents a key state, has guts and the confidence of the base. Time to put ego aside and screw seniority. This is my nominee.

It’s shocking that Democratic leadership in the Senate have their heads in the sand. This will destroy the Democratic Party, our country, and erode global democratic civilization.
I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable.
Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes.
Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

My office is monitoring the situation, and we are in contact with his attorney.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%.
Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

This hysteria is not just obscenely transphobic, it’s misogynistic. My 10 year old cis daughter is the faster kid in her class, she doesn’t need feigned concern and scape goating, but she will need reproductive healthcare. That’s what’s unfair and unsafe for girls.

Troy Jackson is the real deal, he’s been fighting for working and rural people his entire career. In 2016, I joined Senator Jackson on a trip to NH to knock on doors for Bernie sanders. He’s also no wilting violet and holds his ground.
Former Maine Senate President Troy Jackson, a Democrat from Allagash, announced Friday he is exploring a 2026 run for governor.
He said the last election made it clear that Democrats in Washington, D.C. are not doing enough to understand the frustrations of working people.

How gut wrenching, our federal government is clearly targeting poor babies and children, here and abroad. In Maine, this policy will overwhelmingly affect poor, white families who lack transportation in a rural state. This is Trump’s demographic, let’s change that. Let’s fight for these families.
There’s been zero explanation for this given but it seems exceedingly likely it’s pure retaliation for the Maine governor challenging Trump. Really sick.
