1/4.@SenatorCollins over 200 pieces of legislation including protecting for DREAMers, gun control and health care legislation is sitting on @senatemajldr's desk awaiting a vote. He is interfering w/Senate business & you are silent.

2/4An impeachment inquiry was begun because Trump asked another country to interfere in our election and because he is under investigation for a dozen other impeachable offenses. You refuse to comment on the scope of the investigation and his behavior. This is intolerable.
3/4 Now you are 'concerned' that impeachment will interfere with Senate business. If you were truly concerned about the disruption of business you would have called on @senatemajldr to hold a vote on legislation passed by the House.
4/4 It is your job to deliberate over impeachment if it reaches the Senate. Do your job, protect the constitution and represent Mainers. Do your job. #mesen #mepolitics

Over 100 residents joined the #Boston CHNA-CHIP Collaborative last night to discuss key assessment findings and vote on community priorities. Thanks to all who were able to attend and provide input for this important process! #BostonCHNA @HealthyBoston @cobth @LisaSWolff
“#Boston is richly diverse in terms of financial, racial, ethnic, and linguistic population groups although this diversity is not equally distributed across neighborhood.” - one of the CHNA key data findings
#Boston residents identified a need for more #trauma-informed approaches to care, particularly for children and community of color. #BostonCHNA

The U.S. Senate passed a major defense, labor, #health & education funding bill today on a bipartisan 85-7 vote. Pluses in health #research, health #workforce, other initiatives now to reconcile w/House which hasn't moved its bill yet.. /1 @CardinalWaypt senate.gov/legislative/LI…
Can Congress get #health funding done before the new FY19 begins Oct. 1? Maybe. Holdover temporary funding then finish the work in a post-election lame duck session? Depends. /2 @CardinalWaypt
This is more certain: 2019 work for 2020 #health spending will be much more difficult. The new Congress elected this November will get this ticket after the 2yr Bipartisan Budget Act of 2018 $$$ expires,, w/big deficits in view. /3 @CardinalWaypt cbo.gov/publication/53…

Over the past 2 days, hundreds of doctors have shared heartbreaking accounts of how #gunviolence is a #publichealth issue. These are the stories of #docs4gunsense ... May their words make a difference.

The result of a bullet ricocheting inside the skull and destroying the brain on CT scan. The worst trauma I have seen. GUNS ARE A PUBLIC HEALTH ISSUE – Gen Geller MD, NY #docs4gunsense @drgenngeller
The damage a bullet does to a 1 year old brain as it ricochets back and for. The guilt the family feels. The sadness we all feel.

The @NRA & #gun companies are not evil but they are part of the problem. And the amazing thing is: all the folks clamoring to #BoycottNRA don't even know how bad it really is!
5 things the #NRA & gun manufacturers have successfully lobbied to create...
1) Background chk system overseen by the ATF that is forbidden to digitize records & so must keep all records on paper
2) BG chk system that is enormously hobbled at ATF bec of extreme funding shortages so that it can't do its job well & so that the NRA can claim it doesn't work
3) Passage of the #Dickey Amendment that forbids gov't research from reaching conclusions that might be construed as advocating for gun control, thus allowing the #NRA to say, "No studies show..." and leaving legislators with no data to back up laws that might work
