CMPās latest request for a multi-year rate increase is egregious and out of touch with Maineās affordability crisis. Upgrading the grid matters, but Mainers shouldnāt foot the bill for corporate greed after years of underinvestment. The PUC must stand up to CMP and put Maine people first.

Reports last night that a parent was detained by unidentified immigration officials outside Talbot Elementary in Portland during school drop-off are deeply disturbing. Maine families deserve better. We must stand up and reject these tactics and defend the values of dignity, compassion, and community

Today, we pause to remember the lives tragically lost on September 11th, 2001. Nearly 3,000 people were taken from us that day, including six Mainers from Lewiston, Portland, Lubec, Gray, and Gorham. Close friends lost their loved ones and my heart still breaks for them.

Political violence is never acceptable and should be universally condemned. My thoughts tonight are with the family of Charlie Kirk, those harmed today in Colorado, and all families impacted by gun violence.

Housing is one of the biggest challenge facing Maine families today. Rising costs are pushing people out of their communities, and we canāt afford leaders who look the other way. I know the next governor must make affordable housing a top priority.

What is happening at the US Centers for Disease Control should be shocking to all Americans. Undermining science and the basic principles of public health, restricting access to vaccines, and cutting funding for life-saving advances in medicine is putting the public at risk and will cost lives.

Senate Republicans in Washington just rammed through a budget that slashes health care, puts rural hospitals at risk, rolls back environmental protections, guts clean energy investments ā and drives up energy costs. Why? To hand the wealthiest Americans yet another tax break.

They call it ābeautifulā but Mainers know better. Itās a bill that cuts health care, threatens our rural communities and hospitals, guts environmental protections, slashes clean energy programs ā and raises energy costs. All to hand the wealthiest Americans another tax break.

Three years ago, when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade, millions of women lost more than access to abortion ā they lost access to essential reproductive health care. And with that, their lives and futures were put at risk.
