We are marching to Senator Thune’s office. There must be accountability for the detainment of a Senator. This is not normal.

It’s not illegal for a United States Senator to go to a public press conference and ask questions about your constituents safety. It's our job.

@maddow.msnbc.com Please help. As part of the massive cancel of so many DOJ programs, CASA GAL programs fueled by very trained volunteers to assist family courts advocating for kids in peril. VOLUNTEERS. Professionally guided, family reunification as first choice where possible.

The cruelty. Recently completed extensive training and certification to begin volunteering as a CASA GAL. DOJ has cut all funding to National CASA. CASA GALs help 200,000 children countrywide as adjunct to social service workers, prioritizing family reunification. nationalcasagal.org/national-cas...

Remembering my mom's stories about her mom putting food out on the back step for hobos. And all that she saved all her life, just in case. I am thinking about how we will soon need to help feed and house our neighbors, even if half of what we have is gone, we will help others.

Sec. Rollins claimed freezing USDA funding to Maine would "not impact federal feeding programs or direct assistance to Mainers; if a child was fed today, they will be fed tomorrow." My office learned tonight that's not the case. USDA froze the funds to administer child nutrition programs in Maine.
