John,
It’s been nearly a month since Trump and the Republicans shut down the government -- and make no mistake: they did it by choice. All so they can slash health care for millions and give giant tax breaks to billionaires.
I refuse to let them get away with it, and I want to hear your voice. Because in this fight, your concerns matter.
Please take my quick survey about Trump's government shutdown. Your feedback will help me fight smarter, harder for Maine and for all of us.
The real battle behind this shutdown isn't about process; it’s about the lives and families who are affected every day. Families who could see their health care premiums more than double.
And what is Trump doing while families suffer? Well, we've watched him:
- Tear down the entire East Wing of the White House while the rest of the government remains closed, all to build a $300 billion ballroom funded by billionaire bribes.
- Try to force the Justice Department to pay him $230 million in taxpayer money for his own benefit.
- Push a $40 billion bailout for Argentina while America’s farmers are left behind.
- Cut off nutrition assistance for millions, leaving families wondering how they’ll put food on the table.
This isn’t politics as usual. It’s a power grab. Your voice matters more than ever, and I’m counting on you to help steer this fight.
Please click here to take my survey and let me know what matters to you most about this shutdown.
Thanks for standing with me, for protecting what matters, and for fighting to keep our democracy alive.
