Federal premium subsidies for Affordable Care Act marketplace plans should be expanded.
Background
These subsidies lower the monthly cost of health plans bought on HealthCare.gov and state marketplaces. Expanding them would lower premiums for more buyers and increase federal spending.
Families in Maine and across the country are struggling with the high cost of health insurance, and I want to prevent an unaffordable spike in health insurance premiums for many Americans who rely on these COVID-era subsidies.

Federal law should require background checks for all gun sales, including private sales.
Background
Federal law requires background checks for sales by licensed dealers but not for most sales between private individuals. This would extend the requirement to private sales.
Abortion laws should be set by each state rather than by Congress.
Background
Since the Supreme Court's 2022 Dobbs decision, each state sets its own abortion laws. Agreeing means Congress should not pass a national law that either expands or restricts access.
Offshore drilling along the coast could impact Mainers of all walks of life for generations, which is why I join my colleagues in introducing this legislation to ban offshore drilling on the New England coastline.

The federal government should limit greenhouse gas emissions from power plants.
Background
This would set federal limits on the carbon pollution power plants release. It concerns regulation by agencies such as the Environmental Protection Agency.
The U.S. should keep broad tariffs on imported goods.
Background
Tariffs are taxes paid on imported goods. Since 2025 the U.S. has applied tariffs to imports from most countries, and this statement is about keeping them in place.
having people provide an ID at the polls, just as they have to do before boarding an airplane, checking into a hotel, or buying an alcoholic beverage, is a simple reform that will improve the security of our federal elections and will help give people more confidence in the results
A president should be able to send the National Guard into a state over its governor's objection.
Background
Governors normally command their state's National Guard, but federal law lets a president take control of it in some situations. Since 2025, the use of that power to send troops into cities has been challenged in court.
The national security supplemental appropriations package that was signed into law last year included $15.4 billion to help Ukraine purchase American-made weapons.

Federal law should make it easier for workers to form a union.
Background
Workers form a union under the National Labor Relations Act, usually through a secret-ballot election. Proposals in Congress would add other ways to form one and raise penalties on employers who break the law.
I remain adamantly opposed to the Employee Free Choice Act because it would eliminate the long-standing guarantee of a secret ballot for employees voting whether or not to be represented by a union.

The federal corporate income tax rate should be raised above 21 percent.
Background
The federal corporate income tax rate has been 21 percent since 2018, down from 35 percent before. Raising it would increase taxes paid by corporations on their profits.
I won't support American businesses paying the highest corporate tax rate among developed countries in the world once again, and unfortunately, that's what 28 percent would be.
Yes. I support eliminating the filibuster. Republicans should not be able to use an anti-democratic Senate rule to block voting rights, abortion protections, workers' rights, gun-safety laws and action on the climate crisis.
