Maine Democratic Party and the Democratic Party of Virginia held a joint press call ahead of a Paul LePage fundraiser this evening featuring VA Governor Glenn Youngkin. During the call, party officials and legislators from both states slammed both LePage and Youngkin for their extreme and divisive records.
In 2011, Paul LePage’s hostility to Maine’s workers made national headlines when his administration removed a mural depicting the history of Maine’s workforce over concerns it was too pro-labor.
As Maine’s workers prepare to celebrate Labor Day this weekend, Maine’s largest labor unions are making clear what the next priority is in the fight for workers’ rights in Maine—re-electing Governor Janet Mills and keeping Paul LePage and his virulently anti-labor policies out of the Blaine House.
Under Janet Mills, Maine’s first woman Governor, our state has made great strides towards respecting women, empowering women, and protecting women’s rights. On National Women’s Equality Day, let us celebrate the progress we have made and recommit ourselves to continuing that progress in the years to come.
Under the bipartisan leadership of Governor Janet Mills, Maine is leading when it comes to making college more affordable and tackling student loan debt relief, a stark change from the days of Paul LePage.
In a new video released today, Maine Democratic Party Chair Drew Gattine tells the full story behind the menacing and profanity-laden voicemail he received from Governor Paul LePage six years ago today.
