Over the last twelve months, Representative Poliquin and Senator Collins have voted repeatedly to drain money and power out of our communities and small businesses and handed it to those who already have too much - the wealthiest individuals and largest multinational corporations. From massive tax breaks for the wealthy, to making it harder for small business owners to sue fraudulent banks, to gutting the Affordable Care Act, these two Maine Republicans have consistently chosen to make the super-rich and the corporations they control stronger at the expenses of Maine people, communities, and small businesses.

In order for our communities and local economies to thrive, everyone must have their basic needs like food, shelter, health care, and education met. These are basic human rights and necessary prerequisites to participating in society and the economy.

Please fill out the form below to join other Maine business owners in signing our letter to Poliquin and Collins, asking them to support policies that give all Americans - not just the top 1% - a chance to succeed and invests in Maine communities.
