Gov. Janet Mills last week proposed a $111 million bond package she says is necessary in order for Maine's economy to recover and grow. Among components of the "Back to Work" program are investments in broadband access, workforce development, innovation in Maine's "heritage" industries, and expanded child care services.

While the bond package has received support from business advocates such as the Maine State Chamber of Commerce, some say Mills' plan doesn't go far enough. For example, changes in tax laws are needed to create a level playing field for small businesses and to help low-income Mainers, according to the Maine Center for Economic Policy and the Maine People's Alliance.
