MAINE PUBLIC • July 13, 2023
Legislation to support development of offshore wind appeared doomed last month after a veto from Gov. Janet Mills. But the Mills administration and labor groups have reached a compromise that could revive the effort when the Legislature convenes sometime in the next few weeks. A bill addressing Mill's concerns by clarifying the labor language won committee approval late Wednesday night. The bill will face votes in the Maine House and Senate when the legislature reconvenes briefly later this summer.
