My son, Alexander, is a graduating senior accepted to @Penn who took 3 AP courses @ AP4ALL and 8 AP courses @ Cony. He also took a $1,750 AP chemistry course @JohnsHopkins when Cony canceled its own course. https://t.co/cyWbtMLdmo #mepolitics

@AcquistoA@MESecOfState Congrats Alex. My first full-time reporting job back in ‘87 was at The Ledger-Independent in Maysville. Always wish I had stayed there longer.
@PenderMakin Advanced Placement courses shouldn't just be for Maine high school students in wealthy school districts. Rural Maine high school students need and deserve access. Keep AP4ALL https://t.co/TMCGQyMAs3 #mepolitics
@PenderMakin Advanced Placement courses in Maine shouldn’t just be for wealthy school districts and families. AP4ALL provides every high school student access. Keep AP4ALL! https://t.co/Cic0A23ZmV #mepolitics
@TameMaineCoon @PenderMakin@GovJanetMills AP4ALL is a State of Maine program for high school students whose local high schools don't offer the Advanced Placement courses they want to take. So in those situations, they'd take their Advanced Placement courses through AP4ALL. Keep AP4ALL!
Education Commissioner @PenderMakin’s decision to eliminate Maine AP4ALL not only jeopardizes Maine students’ educational opportunities, but also their ability to gain admission into the colleges of their choice. Reverse it! https://t.co/9ywQ4N3T8b @GovJanetMills#mepolitics
Today, the president finally accepted a bipartisan proposal to end the shutdown. This isn't about 1 side winning and 1 side losing. It's about getting our gov't workers paid, stopping families’ suffering, & putting politics aside to get things done for Maine & our country. (1/2)
This 35 day #TrumpShutdown was entirely unnecessary and caused widespread hardship in #Maine. I hope we can swiftly pass a full FY 2019 spending bill within the next three weeks and have a good faith debate about border security in Congress. #mepolitics
"Past Governors have made significant cuts to state workers and teacher retirement pension benefits that have hurt us. Will you pledge to protect state employee and teacher pensions from future cuts?" - Jane Gilbert, Augusta #mepolitics#labordebate
When they go low- we have a public hearing on reasonable legislation to make sure #MedicaidExpansion is funded so our friends and neighbors finally get the health care they're counting on. #HealthCareNow#mepolitics
