Gov. Janet Mills' office is seeking more than $1,400 in fees from the CBS13 I-Team after we requested public documents related to her out-of-state travel over the past year. DETAILS: bit.ly/4bsrOWg

@robglover2009 Congrats!

@sashikaufman Fair warning: I felt the same way you did, but mine is a HS senior and it hasn’t changed much. She has stayed true to herself, but kinda lonely. No one is mean, and she’s not unhappy, but other girls don’t know what to make of her. I hope she finds her tribe in college!

Middle School girls #thread I have tried to raise my 8th grader to be herself and to treat anyone who can't handle it with disregard. She is fabulous, funny, an admitted weirdo -everything I was on the inside in middle school but not outwardly.

CEFH 3 York 2 Cape goals from seniors Jenna Tuttle, Lucy Fougere & Sophia Chung. Senior goalie Zoe Burgard with 11 saves.

@CapeElizabethFH Did a little digging on this: first time CEFH defeated York in at least 20 years! Congrats!

@Aimsel Bella sends big hugs!

Yesterday was a terrible day. On the way to the burial of my good friend's brother (who died at 59) my Dad got a call telling us that my late mother's lifelong best friend who I've known my whole life has died. I ate poorly all day. Reset time. Dog pics would help. Hit me.

Two leading #Maine anti-abortion groups, @CCLMaine and Speak Up For Life, will not use people's veto to try to block @GovJanetMills law expanding access to post-viability #abortion. pressherald.com/2023/08/09/opp…

@JamesxMyall My personal pet peeve: "I hadn't planned to speak..." right before they go on to speak ON and ON and ON, sometimes from written notes!

The Maine House fails to override @GovJanetMills veto of the tribal rights bill on Thursday.

Power surge? Sign from the heavens? The lights go dark, then the digital tally board goes wild as #Maine ⁦@RTalbotRoss⁩ calls for a quorum on the day of the tribal bill veto override. #wabanaki #mepolitics

“We were doing good until the contamination got us. I thought we’d beat it, but it got us good,” said Egide Dostie Jr., a 4th gen dairy farmer. His is one of at least 49 #Maine farms contaminated by #PFAS left behind by #sludge fertilizer. pressherald.com/2023/06/11/a-f…

Helping #Maine farmers survive the fallout from the state’s sludge-spreading program could cost $81M, 34% more than budgeted #PFAS pressherald.com/2023/05/15/cos…

“We ate like kings, except we were getting poisoned." #Maine farmers and those living nearby are left wondering what long-term exposure to #PFAS from long-ago ag sludge spreading is doing to their bodies. Story by @joelawlorph pressherald.com/2023/05/14/pfa…

Does #Maine need to suspend its ban on out-of-state trash to solve its sludge disposal crisis? Or is a delay just a cash grab by its for-profit landfill manager? #PFAS pressherald.com/2023/05/08/law…

This journo is waving a white flag on the public hearing for @GovJanetMills bill. 14 hrs of #abortion testimony, and they’re still going! Goodnight #Maine.

Midnight approaches at the #Maine State House and at least 400 people remain to testify against the #abortion bill from @GovJanetMills, all now limited to 1 minute. pressherald.com/2023/05/01/adv…

At the #Maine State House, about 10pm, and Dems just told the 500~ opponents of @GovJanetMills #abortion bill who have yet to speak at public hearing they will only get 1 min each. The 65~ or so supporters went 1st; they had 2 minutes each. Usually speakers get 3 min.

@huskiesuconn I can't photograph hundreds of people spread out around the Capitol at once. Facts: Security said 2,200 passed thru the metal detectors. Committee clerk list had 65 signed up to speak for abortion expansion bills; 650 (so far) signed up to speak against.

@PLOvertonPPH these were the anti women's medical rights faction on the stairs....shameful

Hundreds flood the Maine State Capitol Monday to testify on bills to expand #abortion access in #Maine pressherald.com/2023/05/01/adv…
