New #MaineRaising!

Instead of giving $ to my campaign, help #ME02.

Change $ spent on nasty ads to special interest stories on the news about helping our community. It's the story politics is missing.

Join in, from anywhere, and change politics.

Let's use this #MaineRaising to help support those struggling with addiction.

Prefer to help with food insecurity instead of donating to addiction support?

Go retro with the last #MaineRaising!

If you are more of a shopper, try a shop #MaineRaising. Support this campaign by supporting small business in #ME02.

Today's challenge - write a letter to the editor for your local paper with what you like about the campaign.

Not in #ME02? That's fine! Help introduce the world to #MaineRaising, and encourage your local politicians to think outside the box.

Here is your out of area sample:

Everyone should check out this new way of campaigning Tiffany Bond is doing in Maine. She focuses financial resources back to the community instead of campaign ads. We should do this here! Check it out bond2018.com

If your letter gets published, tag the campaign! This isn't just Maine. It's all of us. Let's reinvent how we do politics and create a way for ethical, qualified middle class people to participate.

Now accepting pissed off volunteers.

Contributions starting at 5 minutes or $5 per week. Shoes optional.

Inquire within.

Join me @RoArquette.

2018 will be better with a relationship mortician in your feed.

Come for the bill shreds, stay for the momisms.
In the interest of brevity, I have caused concern.

$5 per week comes in 2 #MaineRaising forms:

1. Contribution to charity (see pinned tweet)

2. Save it up and buy something once a month fron the district.

Still no $ to me. Still not for sale.

voted for #HR620

Seems innocuous. It's a short bill.

Promotes education? Sounds good
Clarify? Well, seems reasonable
Notice and cure? That seems like a prudent course

Why are people all upset?
Our first hint that something more nefarious is afoot comes pretty swiftly. Reform is a strong word for the title given the description. Adding a little education, clarification and a notice/cure seems fairly wimpy to earn a bold word like "reform".

I'll only have time to read one tonight, so let's do H. Res. 724

#ReadtheBill #mepolitics #ME02 #Bond2018 #TWPSB
Disclaimer, I do not work in employment law. Were I actually voting on this bill, I would phone a friend(s) to make sure I am not missing anything. First page is nothing sensational - title, sponsors, etc.
P. 2 - There are a lot of references throughout that reference the Congressional Accountability Act of 1995, without appropriate citations or specificity. A bit sloppy to me. A good use of staff is looking up references for efficient bill reading, it shouldn't take this long.

This level of attention is what you should expect from congress when they are discussing our laws.

#mepolitics #TWPSB #Readthebill #bond2018
We should not elect ANYONE who does not demonstrate a capacity to read laws and does not appear to enjoy doing so. That's *the* job.

I wish everyone would take a step back from positions to notice many of our legislators are not proficient in the basic skills of the job. #TWPSB
If someone has not read and/or does not understand the text of a bill and the consequences that flow from that bill, then their opinions on positions are moot...because they cannot tell you if the bill accurately reflects those positions or addresses their championed problems.
