Patchwork Tax Bill Flunks First Test in Maine House
In Augusta the Republican plan to fund the current services budget failed 60 to 69 at the Maine House final enactment stage. The $31 million measure needed two thirds and fell short, with debate focusing on sales tax treatment of auto sales and a rule by which trade-ins would be taxed. The bill was tabled pending a roll call vote, while supporters argued the tax would fund essential services. Separately, the House gave initial approval to a $7.5 million bond-financed University of Maine building program, with plans for major campus projects and a master plan under discussion.
