It’s always good to celebrate a bipartisan victory that helps both Maine workers and American service members, but the real celebration today should be for these hardworking NB employees who make these high-quality products. They are why Maine is so special. #mepoliticspic.twitter.com/1ItCK4LyIR

At the New Balance plant this morning, we celebrated a recent bipartisan legislative victory to extend the Berry Amendment — which requires products for military recruits to be made in America — to athletic footwear like the kind made right here in Norridgewock. #mepoliticspic.twitter.com/2PBG1ofu3z

Maine’s forest products industry is thriving thanks to the folks at places like Pleasant River Lumber — and it will continue to do so thanks to the forward-thinking leadership of the industry and community officials involved in the FOR/Maine Initiative.pic.twitter.com/XEfUdspthb

Great event at Togus today, helping homeless veterans connect with resources to help them find housing. There are so many volunteers in Maine who work hard to give our veterans the support they have earned — today helped connect those in need with those who can help. #mepoliticspic.twitter.com/84wtGewabY

Maine’s farmers have a long and proud tradition of producing superior agricultural products, from dairy and potatoes to blueberries and hops. They are as resilient and innovative as the generations that came before them, and I'm proud to recognize them on #NationalFarmersDay.pic.twitter.com/sHlcvCKel0

Yesterday, I met with volunteers from the Bangor Area Recovery Network to discuss their work, and the importance of ensuring Maine people with substance use disorders can access care. I’ll keep fighting for these vital protections.pic.twitter.com/tzLkVbAbEA

Tambrands has invested not only in Maine’s economy, but also in its people. It was a pleasure to meet so many of the bright, eager new hires who will help the company, the Auburn community, and our state for years to come.pic.twitter.com/liehufPt9I

For 50 years, Tambrands has been a vital part of our state’s economy, and today I visited their Auburn facility to meet with the staff who make that possible. Their hard work makes sure that the phrase ‘Made in Maine’ reflects the dedication and hard work of our state.pic.twitter.com/eacZAA9uQB

Through JMG’s hard work, generations of Maine students have been able to access resources and develop the confidence they need to fulfill their potential and strengthen our economy. I am so proud of Maine’s students and am thankful for all of JMG’s work for our state.pic.twitter.com/tuJUih51tf

Great to join Maine governors — former and present — for a wonderful night honoring 25 years of Jobs for Maine’s Graduates.pic.twitter.com/QQgdjMitEk

Healthcare is not a privilege that can be revoked from those who are too poor or too sick – it is a prerequisite for Americans seeking to live happy, healthy and productive lives. This isn’t radical – it’s compassionate, and exactly what @ProtectOurCare stands for.pic.twitter.com/5prG6z8MrJ

On #POWMIARecognitionDay, we take a moment to honor our prisoners of war and those who went missing in action; their sacrifices will never be forgotten. Read my full statement below:pic.twitter.com/9rCn8A04ib

Timely conversation in Damariscotta this morning, discussing the importance of the Affordable Care Act’s healthcare protections on Maine people – especially Maine people who work in the natural resource industries that drive our rural economy.

Nurse practitioners and physicians assistants are on the front lines of the opioid epidemic, and are ready, willing, and more than able to help; when we let them do their job, they save and change lives. I spoke in support of this provision yesterday. WATCH:pic.twitter.com/igZls9acTr

When facing serious problems, I’ve always found that the best way to find a solution is to bring a lot of smart people around a table and listen. An important conversation today in Portland, discussing ways to prevent veteran suicide with advocates and experts. #mepoliticspic.twitter.com/7zdzozzluU

Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination is one of the most important votes I will take in the Senate – and after carefully studying his record (at least the part that is available) and judicial philosophy, I have decided that I will vote no on his confirmation. My full statement:pic.twitter.com/hURIXfcthp

17 years later, we still grieve. This morning, I joined Maine people at fire stations in Auburn and Lewiston to pay tribute to the lives lost on September 11th, as well as the first responders who rushed into action that fateful day. #NeverForgetpic.twitter.com/7E9KDeR5IW

People across Maine are being devastated by the opioid epidemic, which kills more than one person per day in our state – but it’s important to remember that addiction is not a death sentence. Today, I was able to see examples of that firsthand at the Rally 4 Recovery in Portland.pic.twitter.com/GnfxeHGkFI

The heart of our democracy is fair, free elections – and the heart of those elections is accurate information. Today, I questioned @jack, CEO of @twitter, and Sheryl Sandberg, COO of Facebook, about how their companies are working to educate consumers about disinformation. WATCH:pic.twitter.com/0Nu2Rsmwci
