My friend Alan Caron has some sage advice that each and every newly elected member of the Maine Legislature should read.
Alan’s column regulary appears in the Portland Press Herald, and an excerpt of his latest piece ( Last election had a hidden message for Maine’s leaders) can be found here:
“Given the many challenges Maine faces today, nothing is more critical to our future than a nonpartisan, commonsense economic plan.
We’re a small state with limited dollars that’s in bad need of new economic energy. We spend more on government, as a percentage of our incomes, than just about any other rural state in America.”
