Good Morning All!!
Thank you to all who have contacted their senators and Representatives! If
you haven't done that yet please do ASAP!

This was in the Bangor Daily News this morning:

The Republican Minority leader is reported to be saying his party wants to
keep spending down "His goal is to hold spending around $9.9 billion"

It is important that they do not use the GEoLibrary Budget lines to help
make that happen!

While you are calling or  writing your legislators Send a brief request to
the Appropriations Committee via the Committee clerk requesting that they
provide funding for the GeoLibrary budget line items on pages A29 and A30!

Committee Chairs are :
*Senator Margret Rotundo*: [log in to unmask]
