It's very troubling to this committee that the forensic teams looking into failure of the levees have not received complete and total cooperation from the Army Corps.

Because Maine is such a rural state, residents often do not have the same access to the arts that people in more urban areas might. Grants awarded by the NEA allow entities throughout Maine to showcase various artistic endeavors to communities throughout the state.

This joint decision ... will protect the interests of people living in border communities. Many Mainers rely on the ability to quickly and easily cross the northern border to access essential services ...
