From a verified voter in Lewiston, METake back Congressional powers NOW to check Trump's rampage of distraction
It's time to reclaim the powers assigned to Congress by the constitution: you have fecklessly ceded the powers of appropriations, tariffs, war powers to the executive branch; Congress is also failing to conduct oversight. Anyone can see that Trump would have hastened to release the Epstein files if
From a verified voter in Cumberland Center, MEStop the American Battle Monuments Commission’s erasure of black history
I am writing to express my dismay over the recent removal of a display honoring Black American soldiers of World War II at the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten.

From a verified voter in Portland, MESave the ACI, including abortion care
Reproductive healthcare – including abortion care – is a normal part of healthcare. It is extremely dangerous for the GOP to argue that more people should get pregnant at younger ages and deny them health coverage at the same time. It is essential that Congress extend the ACA subsidies and protect a

The email disclosures from Epstein are unthinkably horrifying. To have Megyn Kelly on national TV defending adult men trafficking “15-year-olds because that is so different than sex with an eight-year-old” is truly despicable. It is essential that the full Epstein files be made publicly available a
From a constituent in Damariscotta, MERelease the Epstein files
The Epstein emails that have been released by the House Oversight Committee are damning of Trump’s involvement in child sex trafficking and child rape along with alluding to other illegal actions. It’s time you stand up to truly protect women and children and stop protecting pedophiles. Vote to re
From a verified voter in Lewiston, MECondemn the Collins-Thune senate payola scam. Equality before the law is one of our constitutional touchstones.

From a constituent in Scarborough, MEWhat a joke
Please explain to me how and why you could get this far into a shutdown in order to protect Mainers healthcare access to just walk away with nothing. We are being governed by a tyrant who would literally ask the Supreme Court to deny SNAP benefits to his own people. That's who you folded under? I

From a verified voter in Cumberland Center, MENo special legal protections exclusively for congress members
I am writing to express my strong disapproval of a provision included in the recent spending package to reopen the government. This provision creates a legal pathway for senators to sue for up to $500,000 each when federal investigators access their phone records without prior notification. This mea

Our national lands, national monuments, and tribal lands are precious legacy which we hold in trust. I am outraged this this Trump administration wants to desecrate these lands but opening them to roads, ICE enforcement, drilling and logging. To wreck these lands would be the profoundest betrayal
From a verified voter in Lewiston, MEMaking children hungry? Not paying TSA? Stop this evil now.
Defying court orders. Making children go hungry. Not paying air traffic controllers. What kind of government WANTS children hungry and defies court orders about SNAP to perpetrate child hunger? Take a look in the mirror. If you are a decent human being, you should be enraged. If you claim to be p

Read the room, smell the coffee: Americans have been turning out to rally against Trump and vast numbers. Democrats are winning elections and flipping seats. Congress needs to listen. I count on my elected representatives to represent all their constituents. We've had enough of the Trump rule
From a verified voter in Westbrook, METhis government shutdown has gone on way too long. If those of you in the House and Senate had been doing your jobs it should never have happened at all.

From a verified voter in South Portland, MEI’m writing about a demeaning political message I saw on the small business administration’s website.

As if the government shutdown hasn’t already inflicted enough pain on Americans, now the FAA is shutting down approximately 10% of air travel.

From a verified voter in Lewiston, METrump defies court order, won't pay SNAP!? Enough. IMPEACHMENT NOW.
