The academic institutions, the legal firms, the people best positioned to stand up to Trump - don't have the courage to do so because they're bound by golden chains, while they anonymous heroes in Minneapolis have nothing to lose but their dignity. @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social @anandwrites.bsky.social

I voted against the budget because it did not make the rich pay their fair share. At a time when the federal government is slashing taxes on the wealthiest and on big corporations, we need the state to stand up. Working people deserve more than crumbs, we deserve a piece of the pie.

Proud to have passed a bill to prevent towns from banning homeless shelters in Maine. Everyone needs to do their fair share to help our neighbors in need. #housingcrisis @preblestreet.bsky.social

No town in Maine should be able to ban homeless shelters. @preblestreet.bsky.social

Maine should fix our tax code so that federal giveaways to the 1% don't impact us as much

"The federal government may keep cutting taxes for the rich, but Maine can choose a different path. Let’s stand up for working families, fund our future and build a tax system that works for everyone — not just the privileged few." @mecep.bsky.social www.pressherald.com/2025/04/09/o...

Opinion: A lobsterman should not pay higher taxes than a Wall Street speculator
Maine needs to buck up and tax the rich.

“The stark reality is that our current tax system is upside down,” Lookner said. “This isn’t by accident. It’s the result of decades of tax policies that favor capital over labor, that privileges passive income over wages.” @mecep.bsky.social

When one town in Maine bans homeless shelters, it adversely affects other towns and the individual who is forced to leave their community. If every town in the state does their fair share, we can keep our unsheltered neighbors from dying. #housingcrisis www.pressherald.com/2025/03/20/m...

Social Housing ensures affordable, mixed-income, tenant controlled housing in perpetuity. If we want to create housing as a community good and a human right, rather than a market commodity, this must be part of the solution. #SocialHousing #PortlandME www.pressherald.com/2025/03/17/p...

The fusion center fight is continuing in Maine. Defund and abolish is off the table for now but, if this auditor bill can get through, it may well expose enough abuses & harms to get it back on the table www.bangordailynews.com/2025/02/26/p...
