The closure of @PortCityPCMH is a heartbreaking reminder that a vaccine won't end the pandemic's impact. For artists and art-lovers everywhere, we need to pass a bill like the RESTART Act to support venues and businesses that inspire our communities. https://t.co/7W27Yxl5Dc — PolitiTweet.org

Replacing a 136 year old facility, the new Saco River Drinking Water Treatment Facility will serve nearly 40,000 Maine people. Great news for the Biddeford/Saco region, and I was honored to be a part of the groundbreaking ceremony – if only virtually! https://t.co/bFrGKNrkXb — PolitiTweet.org

Joining @MaineCalling at 1 p.m. to discuss the importance of defending America’s democratic values, and the need for continued unemployment benefits to support Maine families and businesses. Listen here: https://t.co/cyn2XcOiFh — PolitiTweet.org

This is the right idea – we need to incentivize as many opportunities to enhance testing as we can. I’m ready to work with the FDA to make sure the regulations governing these tests maximize this effort. https://t.co/yT6gQJSlx7 — PolitiTweet.org

The President’s statements today on voting by mail are wildly inaccurate, but that doesn’t mean they’re not corrosive and dangerous. My full statement: https://t.co/lUWvzEtbpk — PolitiTweet.org

John Lewis was one of the greatest leaders of our time, right up to his final moments. Today, we mourn his loss – and tomorrow, we continue his fight. https://t.co/1xeibDL3Mo — PolitiTweet.org

For the good of the nation, all Americans, regardless of their politics, should concentrate on a safe, secure election on November 3, whether in-person or by mail. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The Constitution clearly gives the authority to set election dates to Congress, not the President – because the Founders feared a moment exactly like this one. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The GOP’s proposal to slash unemployment benefits will hurt tens of thousands of Maine families, and cause major damage to the overall state economy – an awful, unacceptable idea, no matter how you look at it. https://t.co/5GNo6Dosbr — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

With increased unemployment benefits set to expire and coronavirus still raging, we’re on the edge of an economic crisis. The cost of inaction in the face of this challenge is more expensive than a relief package that protects American families and keeps the economy afloat. https://t.co/GivBBG93ow — PolitiTweet.org

TUNE IN: I’ll be joining @Morning_Joe shortly to discuss the urgent need to pass a bipartisan coronavirus relief package to support Americans in need. — PolitiTweet.org

After leaving Maine's lobster industry to fend for itself against years of retaliatory Chinese tariffs, the Administration recently offered new assistance to our coastal economy. I’m pushing to make sure they follow through. https://t.co/DpYb4g3HvO — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Good-bye to John Lewis; son of a sharecropper who rose to the highest level of moral leadership on the strength of his courage, perseverance, and dedication to the simple but radical idea of America, “liberty and justice for all”. https://t.co/yBrwqfuvzr https://t.co/psd27eDLsn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

30 years ago, the Americans With Disabilities Act became law, transforming the way Americans with disabilities live and work. This civil rights law has made our nation better, and I’m committed to furthering its mission and ensuring all Americans have the opportunity to thrive. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Coronavirus relief legislation without support for state and local governments will create a disaster: less services during a moment of increased need, and more layoffs during a period of record job losses. I've joined colleagues to advocate for funding for these institutions. https://t.co/HpJkmQDidn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

As the pandemic slows summer travel and activity - especially in Vacationland – seasonal businesses that rely on these months for most of their yearly revenue are facing extreme challenges. We must step up and help these businesses survive this crisis. https://t.co/rFXthOCUF0 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Dr. Judy Shelton has embraced extreme, dangerous views on monetary policy and repeatedly shown a lack of respect for the Federal Reserve’s longstanding independence from political pressure. I will oppose her nomination to the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. My full statement: https://t.co/1L2EIlfQDj — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

John Lewis fought each day to help our nation live up to the ideals we hold dear – including that we are a government of, by, and for the people. In his honor, I’m proud to cosponsor the John Lewis Voter Rights Advancement Act. The Senate should take up this bill immediately. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

For years, our adversaries have used cyberweapons to attack us – and paid little price. If we want to prevent these attacks, we should start by instituting clear deterrence policies that will spell out the cost to our adversaries of targeting the U.S. https://t.co/bYDciY1WXk — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

America’s nonprofits have stepped up during the coronavirus pandemic to make sure people in need can access vital services – but they can’t help others if we don’t help them. My op-ed in @TheHill with @SenatorLankford: https://t.co/ZXGzxwdEuL — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The Great American Outdoors Act just passed the House of Representatives! This legislation will help protect national parks and public lands across the nation for generations to come — look forward to seeing it signed into law. #GAOA https://t.co/vzHN46cGuQ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

From supporting businesses to helping Americans stay in touch, @USPS is a vital part everyday American life – and this November, it will be a critical part of our election infrastructure. We need to protect this institution. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Americans must be able to cast their ballot without endangering their health – it’s pitiful that states are ignoring medical concerns, and effectively denying their citizens this basic right. https://t.co/aGhVlKi9uZ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The American people made a deal in March with this Administration: we’ll put our lives on pause, if you use the time to develop a strategy to fight the pandemic. Americans held up their end of the bargain; the lack of a response strategy shows that the Administration did not. https://t.co/DbpBt4CuZU — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Before the American people head to the ballot box, they deserve to know relevant, real-time information that may affect their choice – including if foreign powers are trying to interfere with our electoral process. My op-ed in @TIME: https://t.co/DDJcIuCJVG — PolitiTweet.org

TUNE IN: At ~7:25, I’ll be talking to @JohnBerman on @NewDay — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

I’ve cosponsored legislation to block the federal government from deploying unidentified, unmarked police forces against Americans exercising their First Amendment rights. This is a moment of truth, when Americans must stand up for our values or risk losing them. — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

As schools work to make decisions in the best interest of students, teachers, and parents, science must lead the way. It is unacceptable that the Administration is blocking top CDC officials from testifying before Congress; today, I urged President Trump to reverse this decision. https://t.co/2Y0ZkyAB0s — PolitiTweet.org
