For me it has been a way of seeing the world, a way of interacting with people, a way of understanding politics. So it is very personal and it is obviously very political. It is a way to be in connection with people who want to address social injustice and to work toward social change. GZ: Was your family very political as well? What are their points of view on feminism when you were growing up? LB: I grew up working class, working poor, and my family moved gradually into the lower-middle class.

  • Helping Mainers find Their Way Home
    Helping Mainers find their way home. It’s impossible to measure the true impact of a safe, warm, affordable home. Because it does so much more than provide shelter from the storm. It helps us live healthier. Feel more confident. Pursue our dreams. And help others do the same. The Foundation As MaineHousing looks back is Poured on its first 50 years 1969-1972 we’re proud of how we never lost sight of this. Even when the economy was struggling or a project wasn’t panning out, our priority has always been helping In the 1960s, it was easier than ever for tourists Mainers find the living spaces they deserve. to experience the wonders of Vacationland. The This is the real legacy of MaineHousing. Maine Turnpike had been extended to Augusta, Helping people find themselves, after clearing the way for folks “from away.” But for finding their way home. many people living in Maine year-round, and looking for a good home, times were tough. Maine communities asked 1969 – 1972 for housing assistance in MaineHousing’s first year. $ From the start of his term, Curtis advocated for the 96 68,500 creation of a Maine State Housing Authority. And those efforts came to fruition in July 1969, when MaineHousing’s the state legislature passed “An Act to Create a first-year budget State Housing Authority.” The brand-new Housing Authority (MaineHousing) began its first year with a $68,500 budget and five commissioners overseeing it, including its first director, Eben Ewell. By the end of the year, 96 communities had reached out to the new organization for housing assistance.

  • How Trump Could Help Decide Who Wins Control of the Maine Senate
    Page 1 1 of 76 DOCUMENTS Bangor Daily News (Maine) September 25, 2018 Tuesday How Trump could help decide who wins control of the Maine Senate BYLINE: Michael Shepherd BDN Staff LENGTH: 1492 words Good morning from Augusta, where new sexual assault allegations against President Donald Trump's Su- preme Court nominee and confusion about the job status of the deputy attorney general got us thinking about where the president is most and least popular in Maine. We sorted the results of the 2016 presidential election between Trump, a Republican, and Democrat Hillary Clinton by Maine Senate district. It reveals some parallels to national polling showing that under Trump, Re- publicans are increasingly struggling in suburban areas that they have held in the past. Maine is lukewarm on Trump as a whole. A recent poll from Suffolk University found a 41 percent approval rating for the president here, which effectively matched past polls from Morning Consult that put the state near the middle of the pack nationally on Trump. The subtle divisions in his approval could be a key factor in elections here. Some of the most interesting ones come when thinking about control of the Maine Senate, which is controlled by Republicans who hold just a 18-17 lead on Democrats. The smallest switch could flip it. There are eight districts where Trump won a majority of votes. The one where he was most popular is held by a Democrat. Trump, who won the 2nd Congressional District but lost Maine at large to Clinton, only won majorities in eight of Maine's 35 Senate districts.
