How about we get together on lowering healthcare costs and after that we can duke it out on climate? That’s how I’ve gotten things done in my whole life. Using common sense and finding common ground, and getting things done as a result. That’s what I’ll do as governor.

Without missing a beat, George replied, "well then let's get to work on the 10%!" Let’s follow George’s example.

It was great to join the Washington County Democrats for a forum on some of the most important issues facing the state. I know things feel more divided than ever right now, but I’m optimistic about Maine’s future.

By focusing both at the state level and the town level, working with people across the spectrum, whether it’s developers and lenders, town planners, all of those people really need to have a lot of help, a lot of support and a lot of encouragement in order for us to build more housing here in Maine.

I won't argue with that headline.
It’s true I’ve spent my life building things that solve problems in the most innovative ways. We need to do things in a fundamentally different way if we are going to tackle Maine’s biggest challenges.

Lucky to have picked a bluebird day to visit the Cranberry Isles Fishermen's Co-Op and hear from Bruce and the team there about bait prices, solar power, and having the most beautiful place to work you could imagine. Reminded me of my own summer as a sternman back in the day #BuildABetterMaine

One of my greatest mentors always reminded us that it was important to “contribute to the community woodpile.” There are plenty of ways to meet the spirit of that idea, and today we did it quite literally. Warms your muscles, warms your heart, and warms your neighbors’ homes.

For over 100 years MDIBL has been contributing research that creates talent, knowledge and cures for what ails us. Thanks to Jeri for a great tour. Maine has a life sciences story to tell, and we should make sure our labs grow and thrive. #Maine #BuildABetterMaine #MEpolitics @mdibiolab.bsky.social

Nick was a mentor and great friend to uncountable numbers of people, and I’m so grateful for the friendship he showed me these many years. The world is worse off without Nick connecting us all together, and I miss him already.

Great to see John Holobetz (son of my old college classmate!) pitch five scoreless at the final regular season home game for the @portlandseadogs.bsky.social yesterday afternoon. Always a little sad to see the boys of summer leave town, but as every good fan says, wait ‘til next year!

If we focus on housing, education, economic development, heathcare - I think we're going to find that we have a ton in common. And if we focus with some common sense on those pieces, both the challenges we have in common, but also the hopes and aspirations we share, I think we can do really well.

And while we celebrate them, we have to recognize that life in Maine has become too hard for too many families.
Too many workers are paying half their income on housing, leaving almost nothing left for groceries, heat and health. Too many seniors are seeing costs rise and health care sites close.
