It is essential that the Ukrainians have the resources they need to defend their airspace and protect civilians from indiscriminate Russian attacks. This morning, I questioned our nation’s top military intel official about the need to send more aircraft to Ukraine.pic.twitter.com/BEpME2ErCZ

We must continue working with European allies to reduce dependence on Russian energy. Rather than turning to authoritarians in the Middle East and South America, we should immediately boost U.S. energy production to lower the soaring price of gas and heating oil.

The U.S. has been purchasing tens of millions of dollars’ worth of Russian oil daily. Following a bipartisan effort I joined, that ends now. Cutting off this key source of revenue, as Ukrainian President Zelensky requested, will put more pressure on Putin.

In addition to rapidly passing a military & humanitarian aid package, the U.S. should ban American imports of Russian oil; revoke Russia’s most-favored-nation status; & send more anti-tank & anti-aircraft missiles, drones, & other lethal weapons as well as non-lethal supplies.

The Olympics also showcased the legendary craftsmanship of Mainers. The footwear worn by Team USA at the opening and closing ceremonies was made in Lewiston. Maine is so proud of our impressive athletes—and the Mainers who outfitted them! https://www.sunjournal.com/2022/02/02/photo-album-the-faces-behind-the-team-usa-olympics-boots/ …

I recently urged the Navy Secretary to name a DDG-51 destroyer after this Medal of Honor recipient. In a letter signed by Maine’s entire Delegation &
@GovJanetMills, we emphasized that MSG Gordon’s story is one that should be honored by naming a BIW-built ship the USS Gary GordonShow this threadThanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
U.S. Navy ships bear the names of those who demonstrated exceptional valor. There’s no doubt that fallen Maine hero MSG Gary Gordon—a Lincoln, Maine, native—is deserving of this honor. His extraordinary sacrifice was made famous by the book & movie Black Hawk Down.pic.twitter.com/zyHoR0Wj3V

New gear requirements scheduled to go into effect on May 1 will add to this burden, despite the fact that compliant gear is either not currently available or incredibly scarce. I urged

@NOAA's own data show that Maine's lobster industry has never been linked to the death of a right whale, yet lobstermen and women have been subject to onerous, unfair regulations that will not meaningfully protect whales.https://www.foxbangor.com/news/item/sen-susan-collins-pushes-for-more-action-on-behalf-of-maine-lobster-industry/ …Show this threadThanks.

COVID-19 restrictions have had a devastating effect on children – leading to lost learning, social isolation, & widespread mental health problems. I asked the

The shortage of COVID-19 tests was preventable. Congress provided $82.6 billion for testing, but a lack of federal orders in 2021 forced manufacturers to reduce output and lay off workers. I pressed
@HHS_ASPR on why the Administration reallocated funding intended for testing.pic.twitter.com/ZWjkrm0YfQThanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
For 70+ years, broadcasting legend Dewey DeWitt was the “Voice of Aroostook County.” The hallmark of his career was his devotion to local sports, especially high school basketball. Whenever I visited Houlton, I loved to see Dewey. I will deeply miss these chats with my friend.pic.twitter.com/Z2wkOdFmIB

Due to safety and technical issues, the planned deployment of 5G this week threatened to cause even more passenger and cargo flight cancellations. I urged

John Madden is always associated with football, but I knew him personally due to his tremendous advocacy for children with Type 1 diabetes, including his grandson Sam. He made a real difference.pic.twitter.com/88jrcx7m0p

Harry Reid was a skilled and tenacious legislator. Although we disagreed on many issues, we also found areas where we were able to collaborate such as supporting community health clinics. My condolences to his wife Landra, his children, and his dedicated former staff.
