It’s harmful to working families in Maine to put their livelihoods in jeopardy with no end game in sight. In the interest of the people of Maine, I urge lawmakers to find common ground and put them selves in the shoes of the state workers who keep our state running.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
