🤩🤩🤩 🧵 1/3 A win to start your weekend! The Taxation Committee held a work session this week for the Child Tax Credit bill (LD 1544) and a bipartisan majority voted to support it! There are votes ahead in the full House and Senate, but this is a BIG step forward!!! #mepolitics

It's a big day in Augusta, as the Maine State Legislature's Committee on Health and Human Services is holding a public hearing for several bills related to General Assistance. Some are good, some are bad, but MIRC staff will be there for all of them!
