Congresswoman Chellie Pingree (D-Maine) today applauded the work of Governor Janet Mills, Assistant Senate Majority Leader Mattie Daughtry (D-Brunswick), Assistant House Majority Leader Kristen Cloutier (D-Lewiston), and other local leaders for their efforts to ensure paid family and medical leave in Maine. After Gov. Mills signed the program into law today, Pingree released the following statement:
“Today Maine made historic progress to strengthen working families, joining 13 states and the District of Columbia to ensure paid family and medical leave. I applaud Senator Daughtry, Representative Cloutier, and Governor Mills for their tireless and impassioned leadership to get this leave program across the finish line. Now, we must secure paid family leave nationwide and lower the astronomical price of child care!”
