The administration is removing phone support for Soc Security recipients. Making it more difficult for seniors to get their checks. It’s a back door way to cut SS benefits. Horrific. If you know anyone who is impacted, please help them get online to get their benefits approved

As locals of Aroostook County, we're asking Susan Collins host a Caribou town hall! It is shameful that as our representative, she hasn't held one in over 25 years. We demand our leaders do better. Please join us outside Collins' office in Caribou next Friday, March 21st at 3:30PM to demand action!✊

BREAKING: President Trump blocked tens of millions in crucial funding to the University of Maine System. This is a blatant abuse of power and an attempt to bully the state into adopting his personal policy preferences.

Fascism is here. The list of words Trump is banning from government is the most stunning document of our time. Click the image below to see how many words Trump and Musk have canceled as part of their new Reich. 🔗: www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

We’re not going to sit back and allow Trump to starve students and teachers across the country of the funding and support they rely on through the Department of Education. Sign the petition. Don’t let Trump dismantle the Department of Education:

Anyone reading this is inured to Susan Collins awfulness. But her confirmation over the last two weeks that neither Ukraine nor Maine's interests represent red lines for her -- that she'll continue to side with Trump over both -- is and should be a huge news story. Wasn't foreordained. #MEpolitics

Totally inappropriate for an intelligence official, who has no business pandering to the president, no matter his party. Intelligence should be unbiased, as those who bring that intelligence to the president should be.

Is he Neville Chamberlain? Joseph Stalin? Or Adolf Hitler? He's an appeaser. He's a disgrace. He's belligerent. He's cruel. He's wicked AF! Do not spend one cent today! Join the boycott of big business supporting this fascist regime. I'm personally extending my boycott to every Monday.

Horrified/ mortified at how our country just treated Ukraine's President! 3 years, they have shown how to fight for their country and their democracy.. if anything, we should be looking to them for guidance! Not threatening them with WWIII. Trump and Vance's behavior was absolutely disgusting 🤬

These 17 House #Republicans won their elections by FEWER votes than the number of people in their districts that will be impacted by the GOP's plan to gut #Medicaid in exchange for more tax cuts for the rich. Again, the capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121

BREAKING: Trump SEIZES control of media covering him Now, only Trump-approved press outlets will be allowed into the White House to ask questions This is NOT democracy - and it's NOT a republic. It's a MONARCHY or a DICTATORSHIP - giving pretend access to ask pretend questions

Just last week, the president tried to bully Gov. Mills into adopting his personal policy preferences by threatening to withhold federal funds allocated by Congress. Join our national policy counsel TODAY to learn about how the ACLU is fighting these abuses of power.

Thank you for defending the rule of law, Gov. Mills. When the president threatened to withhold funding to Maine and said "I am the law," Gov. Mills defended the rule of law and said one of our favorite phrases: We’ll see you in court. Help us say thanks by sending her a message ⤵️
