Effective leadership matters in Washington. As chair of the Appropriations Committee, I am able to bring federal dollars to help ease the burden on taxpayers. In the past five years, I’ve secured $1.5 billion for 672 projects from Madawaska to Kittery, from Eastport to Rumford. These are investments in our communities — fire stations, affordable housing, better roads, bridges, and clean water, childcare, workforce training, and assistance for our rural hospitals.

Hey @howardlutnick Word on the street is that you were the leaker. Any comment?

The facts are public record: Jackson for 20 years opposed gun control. His kid got a $50k contract from the Maine gun safety coalition. Then less than a month later he switched his position and those gun control measures passed.

To be effective in the Senate, you need knowledge, experience, seniority, and relationships. That combination has allowed me to pass bipartisan legislation such as the law to restore earned Social Security benefits for teachers, police officers, and firefighters.

You could hear a pin drop at the Troy Jackson debate watch party while Collins took him to school on the difference between Medicare and Medicaid

Elon nailed the double standard. If we shipped 100,000 Americans to Greenland, elected an American prime minister, and voted the place into the U.S., the left would lose their minds. Do that to Europe through mass immigration and they call it progress. Same playbook here. Import the votes. Change the country. Then act shocked when the natives notice. Europe is the warning. November is the off-ramp. Vote Republican. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Venezuela's second largest oil refinery has been shut down following explosions.

Replacing tactile physical buttons with laggy touchscreens just so you have to navigate three sub-menus while driving 75 mph on a dark highway to adjust the defroster is the single worst safety downgrade in modern automotive history.

Jackson has no defense of his decision to lie on an FHA loan form to purchase a house in Augusta.

Troy Jackson blamed Susan Collins for low MaineCare reimbursement rates. The state sets those rates. Jackson was President of the Maine Senate. He attacked Collins for HIS own record, and she had to explain Medicaid to him on live TV.

Our Senator!

LEFT: Tim Burchett says if anyone leaks where the money goes when The Pentagon fails audits, they’d be murdered RIGHT: Elon Musk says if he were to reveal the real ways Congress gets rich, its “going to get me assassinated” So expose money laundering or fraud and you get killed

Wow! Senator @ChrisMurphyCT is denied entry to U.S. military facilities in the Persian Gulf. He wasn't even allowed to meet with military leaders! He believes this is on the order of Pete Hegseth, who is trying to hide the damage and the cost of this war of choice with Iran.

UPDATE: Trump just awarded another $3 BILLION military contract to a company backed by his son Don Jr. (and Peter Thiel) — what skilled businessmen these Trumps are! Robbing the American taxpayer in broad daylight.

The obvious power of a well constructed sentence...

DOG PARENTS: “We did 2 years of exhaustive research and picked the most suitable breed possible” CAT PARENTS: “We took the trash out one night and there he was”

The first measurable snowfall of the season was recorded yesterday (October 5th), with 0.7" of snow measured over the last 24 hours. The snow was accompanied by thick rime ice, subzero wind chills, and a peak wind gust of 110 mph!

Common sense and independent leadership are at the core of my service in the Senate. I am honored to have the continued support of this true Maine legend — thank you, Bill.

We know about all the crimes democrats have committed because republicans keep telling us about them. Yet we don’t see anybody getting arrested. Do you know why? Because if democrats start getting arrested for their crimes, republicans will start getting arrested for their crimes if democrats get control. They are all in on it, the crimes, and the coverups. They are all on the same grift.
