Gov. Paul LePage has embarrassed Maine residents time and again with his dangerous agenda.
Public tax dollars do not belong to LePage. He seems to feel free to use tax dollars to do whatever he wants. He couldn’t care less about the average Mainer, only the wealthy.
He has certainly proven it. He vetoed a plan to protect Maine lakes from pollution, even opposed a bill that protected children from BPA.
When pushed to give tax breaks to the wealthy, he slashed programs that struggling Maine families depend upon; tried to eliminate Head Start funding; and wanted to send public tax dollars to private, for-profit schools; vetoed funding for women’s health (including life-saving cancer screening); and vetoed minimum wage increases, making it more difficult for hardworking families to make ends meet.
We must stop LePage, once and for all. He is not a worthy governor for Maine.
