Full speech: Maine Gov. Janet Mills delivers 2024 State of the State Address

[@barbarahartlett-yj1pr]

Hello 29:01

[@Ricky-mo6mv]

The governor that destroyed the state of Maine. How lovely.

[@SpellboundTutor]

That's not Paul LePage...

[@MistaTofMaine]

​@@SpellboundTutorThis is Janet Mills, she hand appointed Mussolini to secretary of state. Think goodness for the court system.

[@cyberoptic5757]

Freedom of speech and this forum gives you the ability to make a mistake in public. And you used the opportunity to show how little you know. That's a honkin' big mistake you are making. Luckily for you, anonymity spares you from the embarrassment you richly deserve

[@Ricky-mo6mv]

@@SpellboundTutor Nope, it sure isn’t. And that’s why Maine has turned into a South American ghetto that working class Americans have the pleasure of funding. Meanwhile, so many areas in Southern and Central Maine that we used to enjoy have been destroyed. Portland is a disaster, and I don’t know anyone that isn’t completely disgusted by the thought of even driving through it.

[@maggiemconnor]

@@Ricky-mo6mv its truly heartbreaking. I can't even bare to watch Maine's demise.

[@cyberoptic5757]

I'm from Maine, Cumberland County. Janet Mills has been a good governor in every way you might measure. Legally. Financially. Socially. Emotionally. At the very minimum, her accomplishments are head and shoulders above the chaos of the previous guy, Lepage. Maine is prospering generally, although recently hurt by big storms from the sea, from flooding, and ice. Through all of that, we are one of the best states in which you could choose to reside. Consider moving to Maine.

[@smolders4599]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA!!!! Just simply delusional... biggest welfare system, among the most taxes, among the highest energy costs, among the highest food costs, we sure are prospering... LOL! Mills AND LePage are what is destroying Maine... they're cancer. But keep voting for cancer...

[@jamiemcclement4949]

Yes, Janet's Maine, the state with some of the most draconian covid mandates, where our homeless population and drug issues keep growing, our enormous tax burden, where we ban political opponents, yes Janet's Maine. She may be from my mountain town, but she definitely only appeals to the coastal elite.

[@Ricky-mo6mv]

You are completely delusional. Mainers are struggling more than ever on every level. Even worse, our State has become overwhelmed with “Asylum Seekers”. Did you know that MMC is now housing immigrants because they come here in buses and subsequently get “free” medical care? Once they are well, they can’t just kick them out on the street. 25% of people they can’t place out of the hospital are here illegally, and we flip the bill for their hospital room. Meanwhile, Maine citizens are being placed on stretchers in hallways as inpatients. Is that the kind of care you would like for yourself or a loved one? Most people I have spoken to think it’s disgusting. Of course that is just one example of the corruption taking place that significantly impacts our quality of life and health.

[@AbrahamStaples-o5t]

You must be in collusion with her lol

[@AbrahamStaples-o5t]

Most dangerous and I pray ni one moves to Maine and pray for all Maine citizens were gonna need it against the evil running out state ! No one stops it ! No one cares,what the hell happened to the Maine I knew ! Why are we being told what we can and can't do ? Who we can pick or vote for for president ? What kind of vehicle or power company we can have ,what we can say, going through our federal mail and comments ,getting in our phones,intercepting our emails,there is no free speech,the Maine laws are all redacted everyday ! They choose who's cognitive and who's not the mills family who control the hospitals and courts treasury ,she is the judge jury executioner ,,! She made the Maine state police look inadequate to investigate had to choose her own investigation team looks a little fishy! She doesn't care who she hurts ,death surrounds her ,darkness ,where is all to hi as money to since covid add it all up! . Where is bidens billions ,,? Look in the rainy day fund ,I ain't seen no . Disasters only failed unfixed infrastructure! Like did we used to declare federal emergency during a Nor Easter ! LMAO

[@SpellboundTutor]

I respect that she's putting money into infrastructure. That's definitely important. Examining violence through a public health lens is a good start, but I would have liked to see more of an emphasis on how, every election term, regardless of which governor sits in the seat, the first thing on the budget chopping block is *always* mental healthcare coverage for Mainecare. While this extreme risk protection law is useful, it does ring hollow to me when the governing body consistently shows a lack of interest in funding in mental health funding. Having said that, if these Crisis Receiving Centers will be an alternative to Police to respond to non-violent crises with staff that bring a very different and necessary skillset to the table, that will be huge in dealing with wrongful death at police hands. Provided that happens. Ultimately, while some good strategies for preventing some of the crises that have hit Maine recently, there were many points that were not hit that should have been afforded time. The statewide Homelessness crisis and how a small handful of powerful property management companies own dozens if not hundreds of properties, many of which sit vacant while there are people sleeping on steel benches along the Bangor Waterfront in temperatures in the single digits or lower because the one Homeless Shelter Bangor has is full to bursting and can't accommodate everybody. All because no one wants to punish the owners of these vacant rental properties for hiking rent to unaffordable levels and opting out of any kind of affordable housing program offered locally or by the State. Lewiston was a tragedy. People freezing to death on the Bangor Waterfront because they have zero access to anything resembling a warm bed is just as much of a tragedy and it continues to persist to this day, and it should be treated with just as much respect as Lewiston has been these past few harrowing months for them.

[@MistaTofMaine]

As Lewiston resident I'm concerned most about the idea idea of banning political opponents so that is single political parties can stay in power. The roads stink as well but that is part of living in Maine, fix the roads with bonds and pass the buck onto our kids and grand kids.
