Jobs & the Economy
“Our future depends on jobs. In western Maine, our jobs depend on small businesses. And whether forestry, farming, manufacturing, tourism or trucking, our businesses are heavily reliant on our natural resources and our magnificent outdoors. But our small businesses are too often discouraged from hiring workers by employer mandates, taxes, and other burdens our government imposes. And our small, local businesses too often face unfair competition from huge trans-national corporations that get special treatment by federal and state government.“
