“The Legislature and I have a commitment to providing financial relief to Maine people to help them remain safe and secure in their homes this winter.  My office has had productdive conversations with Democratic and Republican legislative leadership this week and I am optimistic that we are close to finalizing a bipartisan agreement for an emergency winter energy relief plan.  Those conversations will continue this weekend and I look forward to unveiling the proposal early next week for the full Legislature consieration before they convene on Wednesday.  I extend my gratitude to legislature leadership for their continued good-faith work.”
