One doesn't have to have an advanced degree in adolescent psychology to know that Long Creek has been and will continue to be a harmful environment for teens. #ShutItDown @maine_youth https://t.co/O3FOKIfDPA

"It’s all part of public safety,” Lookner said. “The data’s very clear that when we invest more in housing and education, jobs programs, mental health and substance use treatment, that it makes our communities safer.” #CloseLongCreek @maine_youth https://t.co/Px9Ul53j9i
"We need to replace Long Creek with appropriate mental health treatment, and we need to do it now." @maine_youth @ACLUMaine @PressHerald https://t.co/6y0XF2E1Tz
Maine has a large budget for incarcerating youth who become justice involved, but not for ensuring access to mental health services in the community. Time to invest mental health for all youth, not just incarceration for those who slip through the cracks. https://t.co/cvUjeRklqE
Opponents of single payer healthcare argue that those countries have "long lines" for treatment. Sorry, but has anyone tried to get care with a new PCP in this country in the last few years? You'll wait months if can even find one accepting new patients, that's with insurance.
Underpaid food service workers are required to wash their hands frequently in order to curb the spread of illness. Somehow, this same logic doesn't register with Maine legislative Republicans who seem to think they're not subject to the same mask requirements as everyone else.
If the purpose of "the war on drugs" is to save lives and create public safety, it's time to admit we've lost. If we want to save lives from opioid overdoses, we need arm reduction health centers. Time to pass LD 1364! https://t.co/gfcoPwkBCv
More funding for law enforcement has not resulted in safer communities or fewer opioid overdose deaths in #Maine. We must start thinking of treatment, housing, jobs training, and a education as parts of public safety. https://t.co/2wznkafUMh
Nurses and frontline healthcare workers deserve the best conditions in order to provide the highest quality care for their patients, especially during a pandemic. ✊🏽🔥🌹 #Solidarity @MaineNurses #1U #UnionStrong @NationalNurses https://t.co/oT7wPN0t0Z
This is a tremendous development in New York and it's time for Maine to follow suit. In the words of Jesse Harvey "people who use drugs don't deserve to die." We can stem the tide of overdose deaths if we act now. #OPS #OverdosePrevention https://t.co/4peNBpN0q3
