#mepolitics Our earliest immigrants came here for a chance, not a hand out... America struck down slavery, achieved suffrage, defeated the greatest socialist fascism scourge known to mankind and helped save the world...we achieved countless medical & technological innovations..

Yet we now push to keep people with that same drive and yearing from our shores. #mepolitics

You know that many immigrants that do not burden the system more than they contribute, right? #mepolitics

Just got back from north of Waterville. Everyone is abusing the system up there, as they drink beer and smoke dope, some at 70+ years old - while on govt and state support. Then the millennial bums, sniffing anything and shooting heroin. Too much for free, why work. #mepolitics

Everyone is a pretty big group. Are there any qualifiers on everyone? My clients in Waterville have always worked in some capacity. #mepolitics

Everyone Tiffany. Qualifiers? I went home today to visit my family. Everyone is on the dole Tiffany, in one form or another. And I’m talking about my family, not clients. I will always be grateful to my grandfather, who came up when I was 5 and took us out of there. #mepolitics

The entire city is not on the dole. Saying it's a problem & working to address the problem is enough without broadly brushing a town into the dust. A lot of rural Maine is struggling with economic strife, addiction, etc. #mepolitics
