Maine LD 1879 has not made enough progress in the legislature by certain deadlines, and as a result, cannot pass this year. This is the bill to require unqualified parties that are trying to qualify to report their contributors and expenditures.
In other Maine legislative news, on March 29, Governor Paul LePage signed LD 1774, which conforms the Maine public funding law for candidates for state office to the U.S. Supreme Court decision that prohibits extra public funding for certain candidates who have well-funded opponents.
