Maine’s forests are among our state’s greatest natural assets, and we need to maximize their present and future value to Maine people. To help these forests continue to thrive, we need to work together; that was the spirit of today’s @YourLandCAN's panel. https://t.co/gXGfipRsMo
Our nation doesn’t yet have an effective strategy to deter adversaries from unleashing devastating cyberattacks on our critical infrastructure, from IT to energy. That’s one of the main issues that drive my work on @CyberSolarium. https://t.co/tbKwEdcHYu QT @CyberSolarium: It’s critical that our nation has a plan in the event of a cyberattack, which could have devastating effects on com… https://t.co/G0FUa6oBnH)
Energy efficiency is a win-win that allows consumers to cut monthly costs and reduce their carbon footprint – but large up-front costs have put this path out of reach for too many. Today, I pushed for financing to make it available to more Americans. https://t.co/yEbkh3m15C
Community health centers provide vital health services in Maine – aiding 200,000 patients in Maine. Folks of all ages and backgrounds rely on them, that’s why I’ve joined @RoyBlunt and @SenStabenow in urging Congress to pass sufficient 5-year funding for CHCs. https://t.co/AdNUsSdUV8
The Senate Intel Committee just released a bipartisan report on Russia's attempts to interfere with the 2016 election via social media. One key takeaway: the best way to thwart misinformation is for voters to be aware of the methods and tactics being used. https://t.co/kZaqs9U0N6 QT @SenAngusKing: This week, the Senate Intelligence Committee released the second volume of our bipartisan report, which clearly lay… https://t.co/XAfDAiex09)
Elections are the backbone of America’s democracy, which makes this reminder from @SteveColllinsSJ even more important. Voters must be vigilant about what they read on social media. https://t.co/b3F3t0P4HT
An important and informative day meeting with these military members – including a few from Maine! – to hear their insights and, most importantly, offer our gratitude for their service in defense of our nation.
The USS Gonzalez is a really impressive ship, and for good reason – it was built by the unparalleled workers of Bath Iron Works. Proud to see Maine-made ships playing such a large role in supporting our servicemembers soldiers and ensuring our national defense. https://t.co/Tg5SHZRExu
Each year, 3.5 million people visit @AcadiaNPS – that’s nearly 3 times the population of Maine. Anyone who’s been to Acadia understands why it’s such a popular park – and they also know just how important it is that we protect this wonderful Maine treasure for future generations. https://t.co/ggiLyTbOf3
Acadia is far from the only national park struggling to keep up with increased visitation. That's why I've introduced the Restore Our Parks Act with @SenRobPortman, @MarkWarner, and @SenAlexander to address the deferred maintenance backlog facing @NPS. https://t.co/fepxWncPwH
It’s commonsense: if you advertise a product to the American people, you should tell them what you’re charging. Apparently drug companies missed the memo, though — they’re suing to block a rule based on my efforts to require them to disclose their prices in TV ads. QT @CNNPolitics: Three drug makers, along with an industry group, filed a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from requiring ph… https://t.co/S4b0j5g50M)
This rule has bipartisan Congressional support, is backed by the administration, and will reduce costs for Americans who rely on these medications. If anything, the objections of these corporations makes me think we’re on the right track.
Maine's fisheries – particularly our lobster industry – are vital economic drivers of communities up and down our coast. I'm committed to working with them to make sure they have a voice in any new regulations that impact their livelihoods.
This week, I met with Commissioner Patrick Keliher and others from @MaineDMR to talk about an number of important issues facing Maine’s fishing communities – including the importance of balancing environmental regulations with the needs of Maine fishermen. https://t.co/eb0BGCMcu3
Harley riders stick together, so I’m happy to join in celebrating @harleydavidson's 115th Anniversary Parade and commitment to giving back to @MDAnews as bikers ride across America as part of the #RideForStrength. To follow their journey, please visit https://t.co/XWqdEkAOlb
Spent some time meeting visiting businesses on Lisbon Street in Lewiston. Glad I had the chance to sit down with employees of Rinck Advertising and to see my old friend Paul Poliquin, who has run Paul’s Clothing and Shoes for nearly 50 years! https://t.co/6tgY9RlEb1
Craig Hickman is a proud public servant who radiates intelligence and enthusiasm for all things Maine. Craig, our whole state is is thinking about you tonight. https://t.co/nMceE0WBei QT @newscentermaine: State Representative, Craig Hickman, seriously burned in Winthrop https://t.co/n0VQXzUXzl https://t.co/yfAIfTKxo2)
Lobsters are a way of life for many coastal communities, and these unnecessary trade wars are risking Maine jobs; I’ll keep pushing for a strategic approach on trade deals.
to today’s lobster talk in Stonington today, but to the fears I’ve heard from Maine people about the impact of tariffs on the industry. https://t.co/xvjLyMBri6
A pleasure to speak to the graduates of Spruce Mountain Adult Ed tonight. The sign in he background says it all — Knowledge is the Key to Success. Congrats to all the graduates; our state is grateful for your commitment to lifelong learning. https://t.co/

Lincoln was born 209 years ago today – and still, his words live on. To quote him once again: “It’s not the years in your life that count. It’s the life in your years.” Abraham Lincoln’s contributions to our nation are incalculable, and continue to light
