Did Maine lawmakers "meet the moment" on new gun safety laws? This week on @InTheArenaMaine we look at the report card for the 2nd session of the 131st Legislature. Here's a preview. @WMTWTV #MePolitics @phil6_2 @mayorstrim
Beyond disappointing. Disgusting.
This week in The Arena, the good, bad and ugly about bills passed or defeated-- Including the failed effort to allow people to sue firearms manufacturers & dealers over gun deaths. @phil6_2 & @mayorstrim offer their takes @InTheArenaMaine @WMTWTV #MePolitics
The good? A bill to tax our rich and another to allow people to sue gun manufacturers. The bad? A Dem legislator resigning w/ 3 weeks left. The ugly? GOP legislators invoking God's wrath on bills they don't like. Oh, and talk of Nazis... Check out the newest podcast.

It’s the final day of the legislative session. On this week’s @InTheArenaMaine - they’re talking about the good, the bad & the ugly in Augusta. @PatCallaghan6 @mayorstrim @phil6_2 @WMTWTV
Imagine how many would be dead if the killer had access to an assault weapon like they do in the United States. Oh, wait a minute, we don’t have to imagine … via @nytimes nytimes.com/live/2024/04/1…
So glad I pushed so hard for Portland to be a welcoming city when I was Mayor. As I said then, and as I continue to say, immigrants are the lifeblood of this country. Generation after generation has built the American foundation we all benefit from. nytimes.com/2024/04/12/bus…
When Brennan was elected to the leg, the 1st bill he sponsored was to stop jailing kids for truancy. 1 of the last public positions he took was to support the assault weapons ban. In between, he fought for public power, a higher min. wage and to provide energy assistance.

With the presidential race underway, Maine history offers good examples of the impact 3rd party candidates can have. We look into that, and consider a stack of bills headed to @GovJanetMills on this week's @InTheArenaMaine. storystudio.wmtw.com/inthearena/ #MePolitics
Yes! Yes, we should.
I love my brother from another mother, but he is flat out wrong on @NatlPopularVote. Maine will gain more influence. Plus, we help make America a more perfect union.

In what is shaping up as a historic union win, the UAW is winning VERY BIG at Volkswagen -- by 78% to 22% -- with around 40% of the vote counted.
This week in The Arena, the good, bad and ugly about bills passed or defeated-- Including the failed effort to allow people to sue firearms manufacturers & dealers over gun deaths. @phil6_2 & @mayorstrim offer their takes @InTheArenaMaine @WMTWTV #MePolitics
ITA ep. 12 is out! This week we look at the "Good. Bad. & Ugly" coming out of Augusta. From censures, to gun bills, to Nazi talk, to a resignation, to raising taxes on the wealthy, we pull no punches. w/ @PatCallaghan6 @phil6_2 @mayorstrim @WMTWTV wmtw.com/inthearena
The private sector revolving door with city planners in Maine should really make us question whom these planners were serving and what their objectives were when they were public employees. If it were any other industry, we'd have called this out a long time ago.
There is no postulate in modern economics that rises to the level of “scientific fact.” Anyone suggesting otherwise most likely hasn’t actually studied economics. Also, the YIMBY disdain for the general public is palpable here.
@TheTyJager more importantly, why are we asking them their opinion on something that is scientific fact? if most Washington voters don't believe the earth is round i'm not going to ignore the science.
This isn’t just about “remote work.” Developers started flipping Portland’s legacy office buildings *before* Covid, booting tenants to facilitate conversion to high end residential/hotels. Time and temp, Fidelity trust, etc. have been empty for a while. pressherald.com/2024/04/14/imp…
