I offer thanks to those legislators who are fighting to protect the wiIl of the majority of people of Maine — the legislators who have repeatedly voted to increase funding for the education of the children.

Shame on those legislators who choose to reject the will of the voters at the expense of the children while extending tax breaks for the top 1 percent, while pretending that the referendum results do not matter.

Voters should keep score — show those politicians that common citizens do matter. Vote for those legislators who respect the majority opinion and against those who do not.
