Under current rules, a Maine farmer could be forced to send his or her animals halfway across the state for processing just so they can sell the product to a neighbor down the road. These extra hoops don’t work for farmers or consumers – let’s simplify this process for everyone. — PolitiTweet.org

Cyberattacks and the pandemic have exposed vulnerabilities in the global food supply chain, highlighting the need to support local agriculture. I’ve introduced the PRIME Act to cut red tape keeping local farmers and ranchers from feeding their communities. https://t.co/wABr6TqkGg — PolitiTweet.org

Small businesses across Maine are built around the critical economic activity created by our state’s tourism sector. That's why I am backing a bipartisan effort to boost tourism and support Maine businesses as the nation recovers from the pandemic. https://t.co/pgzMc5jRcn — PolitiTweet.org

Bath-built ships are the workhorses of the Navy – which is why I am concerned that the President’s budget request eliminates one ship for FY22, hindering national security and our industrial base. I pressed @SecDef on his commitment to fixing this mistake. https://t.co/W6pBWgOWMa — PolitiTweet.org

Two vital Maine organizations are receiving nearly $10 million to support their childhood development work. Congratulations to @PenquisCAP and @AroostookCAP for these awards – and thank you for the work you do for the Maine’s children. https://t.co/R2EKvnkIL8 — PolitiTweet.org

I’m gravely concerned about the safety of the men and women of Afghanistan who supported the mission of the U.S. troops as we withdraw. Today I urged @SecDef and @theJointStaff to help advance their expatriation process for strategic – but more importantly, moral – reasons. https://t.co/qDxVJKjmco — PolitiTweet.org

A privilege to introduce Chris Inglis, President Biden’s nominee to serve as the nation’s first National Cyber Director, to @HSGAC today. Chris is a deeply experienced, uniquely talented leader, and I believe he is the right person to take on the cyber challenges facing America. https://t.co/mIJXWqbGHV — PolitiTweet.org

In light of recent cyber hacks and attacks, it is clearer than ever that America needs a National Cyber Director. This morning, it will be my honor to introduce my fellow @CyberSolarium Commissioner Chris Inglis to @HSGAC and urge his speedy confirmation. https://t.co/LAzQMvbE8v — PolitiTweet.org

These are commonsense changes – with bipartisan support – that can provide additional money for the philanthropic organizations that play vital roles in communities across America. Let’s pass this bill, and make sure that charitable donations actually reach charities. — PolitiTweet.org

The ACE Act would institute time limits on how long DAFs can hold money meant for charitable donations, provide incentives for faster distribution of these funds, and guarantee that payments to a donor's family don’t count as eligible expenses for private foundations. — PolitiTweet.org

Under current rules, donor-advised funds (DAFs) and private foundations allow some Americans to receive tax breaks for donations that never actually reach working charities. Our bill will clarify this gray area, and direct more resources to working charities nationwide. — PolitiTweet.org

America’s philanthropic sector is a global force for good – but to maximize its impact, we must reform tax rules that govern some gifts. I am introducing a bill with @ChuckGrassley to ensure all donations reach working charities in a reasonable timeframe. https://t.co/E0GWNEWjDX — PolitiTweet.org

Recent hacks of private companies have created national challenges, including gas shortages and impacts on our food supply. To bolster America’s cyberdefenses, we must improve collaboration between government and private owners of critical infrastructure. https://t.co/yyOwlhOM2g — PolitiTweet.org

On June 6th, 1944, Allied forces landed in Normandy and put their lives on the line to win the fight against fascism. 77 years later, we honor the heroes of D-Day who fought to defend our democratic values – and remember those who made the ultimate sacrifice. https://t.co/iC1agQkkxq — PolitiTweet.org

Between the recent gas shortages and meat processor hacks, we’ve seen dangerous proof that America’s cybersecurity is insufficient to meet the threats we face. It is absolutely essential that the government and the private sector work together to step up our national efforts. https://t.co/C2D9ccg8EX — PolitiTweet.org

There are so many bright young students in Maine! Had a great chat recently with a class at Oxford Hills Comprehensive High School about the effects of a global economy, the value of environmental standards, and the challenges of snarled supply lines. https://t.co/Ezz4GbDqWs — PolitiTweet.org

Recent cuts to the IRS have emboldened tax avoidance, costing the United States up to $1 trillion in uncollected taxes each year. I’ve proposed a bill to properly fund the IRS, so we can collect taxes more fairly. https://t.co/GlZkxctz5P — PolitiTweet.org

From the beginning of the pandemic, state & localities went above and beyond to provide vital public services. As a former governor, I know firsthand just how difficult the balancing act has been, which is why I fought so hard for this funding for Maine's municipalities. — PolitiTweet.org
