@FlandersDeborah So one of the things that organizers were asked to do at the climate strike events is to get people registered if needed. It is clear to all that only electoral activity can turn the corner so that is in some sense what this is really about.
We've got to turn this around. Support the courageous people in the Amazon who are fighting every day to protect their trees, rivers, and territories. They are being killed, and the rainforest with them.
Fun lobbying with @mainepeople for Earned Paid Sick Days today especially as it was also Labor Lobby Day with lots and lots of people and we were all lobbying for the same thing. (Yes, you can see our spokesmodel Bob in one of the photos :-)

Anti-vaxxers are flooding Maine legislators with messages against LD798 which restricts vaccination exemptions for public school attendance to medical reasons only. If you care about herd immunity, public health and science please let your legislators know now - YES on LD798

Today, I’m proud to endorse even more Democratic candidates who aren’t just running against something, but for something—to expand opportunity for all of us and to restore dignity, honor, and compassion to public service. They deserve your vote:
Note our new name @EngageWALDO aka The Organization Formally Known as Indivisible Waldo. Same great group - now moving beyond Indivisible and into more civic engagement.
It’s a beautiful day in Aroostook County! I spent the morning touring The Aroostook Medical Center, followed by a stop at the Acadian Festival in Madawaska. #mepolitics
There is undeniable evidence that #Russia interfered in our elections. Bruce Poliquin's recognition of ‘consensus’ on the issue is an astonishingly weak display of American leadership. My full statement: https://t.co/sEy2QmeDA0 @BrucePoliquin#mepolitics
Trump got a bigger crowd to protest him on foreign soil, than the one he got to attend his inauguration in America.
Oh, and he got a giant Trump is a Baby balloon too. https://t.co/3acpLDwoIY

With that, #ME02 is a toss up. @RepPoliquin has broken his promise to our community by voting to take healthcare away from 100,000 Mainers, adding over $1 trillion to our debt, and threatening Social Security and Medicare to pay for it. #mepolitics
