Earlier this week, the Maine Legislature released the titles of approximately 2,000 bills submitted for consideration. Legislation addressing paid sick leave, workforce development, and the opioid epidemic are just a few of the subject areas that will be taken up by the Legislature this year.

The League’s lobbying team is currently analyzing the titles to determine which bills we will monitor and potentially engage in support/or against this session. Our bill to delay the implementation of LD 968, sponsored by Senator Heather Sanborn, has been assigned a title, An Act To Amend the Laws Governing Multiparty Accounts with Financial Institutions (LR 1180). All bills should be assigned to committees for work sessions and consideration soon.
