I pray that this Administration doesn’t start an expensive, cruel (and entirely unnecessary!) war with #Venezuela 💣
There are no “narco-terrorists” in the fishing boats that the US military keeps bombing.

Pink Friday is the Friday BEFORE Black Friday. This year it falls on November 21. It's a nationwide push to shop small before the big box stores and corporations take over everyone's attention (and budgets). The whole point is simple: put small businesses first. #SupportSmall #SupportSmallBusiness

Maine has one of the highest voter turnouts in the country. Let’s keep it that way! Restricting voting rights—by limiting housebound seniors’ and disabled Mainers’ access to absentee ballots—is beneath us. No voter suppression! #Maine
