Why Are We Raging?
The policies of Paul LePage are detrimental to Maine. The abolition of same day voting, which accounted for 20,000 people in the last election and 60,000 in the 2008 presidential election, discounts 80,000 potential voting citizens, regardless of their political affiliation. Environmental protection law rollbacks and rule changes will close many green and alternative energy-related businesses resulting in huge job losses and economic catastrophe. Hostile worker legislation is resulting in weaker unions plus dangerous and unsafe working conditions. LePage’s budget contains tax cuts for the rich and program cuts for low income families, with no plan to create jobs.
