This summer, Maine is slated to host the National Governors Association at a high-profile conference, tentatively scheduled for July 13-15 in Portland.

Gov. Janet Mills has said the NGA Summer Meeting will showcase not only the city, but Maine as a whole.

Besides the country's highest state officials, the NGA summer gatherings typically draw about 2,000 attendees, including business leaders, lobbyists, vendors and the national press corps. The meetings from 2017-2019 generated an average of $1.5 million in room stays, spending by attendees and exhibitors, and other economic activity.

Portland was originally scheduled to hold the 2020 NGA Summer Meeting, but the event went virtual that year and in 2021 because of the pandemic.

    In the words of Doc Holiday, "My hypocrisy knows no bounds" should be the slogan for the Governors Association. They have kept us locked up and shut down our businesses. Zoom, you greedy Governors! They do not need to travel, and they do not need to take away the revenue from the Old Port!
