Shinzo Abe was a thoughtful leader, a skilled diplomat, and a stalwart advocate for global democracy. I join people around the world in mourning his tragic death; and hope we can honor his legacy by working toward his vision of a peaceful, prosperous, and collaborative world. https://t.co/vLC6MtlyW2 — PolitiTweet.org

Wishing a happy Independence Day to everyone across Maine and the country. It’s always a privilege to join the Bath parade to celebrate the Fourth of July, our freedom, and all those who have made sacrifices for our nation. https://t.co/lB2xfRhE5c — PolitiTweet.org

By overturning Roe v. Wade, this Supreme Court has erased nearly half a century of precedent upon precedent through a dangerous, blatantly political ruling that will rob millions of women the right to make decisions about their own health, safety, and lives.

For too long, communities across our country have felt the devastation and heartbreak of America’s gun violence. Today the Senate took the most significant step in decades to confront these tragedies and protect our people from the scourge of gun violence.

The American people’s faith in free and fair elections – without foreign interference – is the foundation of our democracy. By requiring regular, public reports on our elections’ security and integrity from @US_CYBERCOM, we can strengthen this core trust. https://t.co/UJwUeSg19N — PolitiTweet.org

Bath-built ships are the backbone of our Navy and an important economic driver for our state. This year’s NDAA includes a multi-year contract for up to 15 ships that Bath can compete to build – strengthening the yard and our national security. https://t.co/VnFliHnAmx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

In the 21st century, misinformation is a complicated, dangerous threat to national security and global stability. It was good to join the @ReaganInstitute today to discuss the cyber lessons of the past year, and how we can strengthen our virtual defenses to protect ourselves. https://t.co/iAmpzGu0Jl — PolitiTweet.org

On this #Juneteenth, we celebrate freedom, honor those who have fought to extend America’s promise to all our citizens, and recommit to advancing their mission. We must reflect on the progress our nation has made, and the work ahead to deliver true equality and justice for all. — PolitiTweet.org

Thousands of American veterans were exposed to toxic chemicals in the line of duty, but have difficulty treating the resulting health issues. The Senate took action to right this wrong and get America’s heroes the care they deserve. https://t.co/gaNyJ6FK1K — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Climate change is one of the most serious national security threats we face. With the Department of Defense responsible for more than half the federal government’s carbon emissions, I'm joining a push to shift our non-tactical fleet to electric vehicles. https://t.co/o4DdwyRxWX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

As Maine people struggle with rising gas prices, fossil fuel companies are enjoying soaring profits rather than investing in production. This cannot continue and I'm grateful @POTUS is pushing for action. https://t.co/CJ0TPxiECs — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Months after Congress passed raises for wildland firefighters, these first responders still aren’t receiving the pay they deserve. The Administration must address this delay that's hurting firefighters and the communities who rely on them. https://t.co/NfTDPRYmgJ — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Too many communities across our country have felt the devastating pain of America's gun violence epidemic – it must stop. I'm proud to join with 19 bipartisan Senators on a bill that will confront this crisis without infringing on constitutional rights. https://t.co/NNVgG7zbTa — PolitiTweet.org

Enock Glidden of Patten has a love of the outdoors, and a passion for helping others. His barrier-breaking, inspirational work is an important way to expand access to our state’s natural treasures. https://t.co/19t3K5kKIX — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Members of the @VFWHQ have made immense sacrifices for our country and now do incredible work across our communities. It was an honor to speak with Maine VFW leaders today in Lewiston to thank them for their service and update them on my work to support veterans in Congress. https://t.co/JyTOIcu7qx — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Margaret Chase Smith was an extraordinary lawmaker, a historic trailblazer, and a dear friend. This room is a well deserved monument to her legacy, and a permanent reminder of the Maine values she brought to Washington. https://t.co/FoTEmu2VIn — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

From fly fishing in Baxter to hiking in Camden, state parks provide some of Maine's most wonderful moments and are a significant economic driver for our state. I’m glad @GovJanetMills is using #AmericanRescuePlan funds to support these natural wonders. https://t.co/QXbYCOCIrM — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

As Chairman of the Senate National Parks Subcommittee, I’m deeply committed to securing the future of these national treasures. It was pleasure to meet with @NatlParkService Director Charles Sams today to share our ideas on how we can protect these lands for the next generation. https://t.co/5AuWFkCVPI — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Maine grocers and retailers are feeling the impacts of pressing issues facing our state, from rising costs to a shortage of workers. I appreciated the opportunity to talk with them today about their work to feed our state and how we can keep prices low for Maine people. https://t.co/j3z6gkQX1B — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

From intercepting threats to helping ships in need, the @USCG watch over our nation's waters. It was great to meet with Admiral Linda Fagan to discuss this vital work and congratulate her on becoming the first woman to lead a branch of the armed forces. https://t.co/Jvl4gaXrov — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Investments in solar power are key to unlocking our renewable energy future. I applaud @POTUS's action to accelerate solar production, which will support a cleaner environment, lower costs for consumers, and create good American jobs. https://t.co/1npMDaq57S — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Congressionally-Directed Spending is making vital investments across Maine, including at the Bath YMCA's childcare center. This important funding will help set more children up for a lifetime of success while providing critical support for working parents. https://t.co/CDtyTHuzA5 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

As our climate changes, the warming Arctic offers serious challenges, as well as opportunities on everything from fishing to renewable energies. It was great to join @UArctic to discuss how we can promote strong, peaceful leadership in the High North. https://t.co/ptt2GNEBvS — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The high cost of prescription drugs is among the most pressing issues facing Maine people. I joined with @AARPMaine today in support of bipartisan solutions, including allowing Medicare to negotiate drug prices and requiring more transparency from manufacturers. https://t.co/ivOLfkuaVR — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

The Bath YMCA’s childcare programs are vital to our Midcoast communities, and I was proud to help secure a $1.4 million grant for the Y to expand their programs through the Congressionally-Directed Spending process. Learn more about this work here: https://t.co/mazBHF8Fqg — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

A great day visiting with children and staff at the Bath YMCA’s Early Childcare Program. This program helps parents get to work, provides enriching activities that help prepare kids to succeed in school – and it’s just plain fun! https://t.co/c6P9TntrRo — PolitiTweet.org

America's veterans are facing a tragic suicide epidemic, especially as they transition to civilian life. We have a duty to improve the resources and support for these American heroes. https://t.co/cHnT43DRxe — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

Memorial Day is one of our nation’s most solemn days of remembrance and an important reminder that freedom is not free. I hope you and your loved ones can take a moment today to honor all those who gave their lives for our country. https://t.co/Po1P9WmUZ8 — PolitiTweet.org

Senator Angus King @SenAngusKing

This weekend is an important reminder of all that has been sacrificed for America’s freedoms. It was an honor to join folks in Lewiston/Auburn today to pay tribute to all those who paid the ultimate price in defense our nation. https://t.co/eocfKhbQ3g — PolitiTweet.org
