Maine Candidates Present Disability Policy Platforms to Voters
Disability Rights Maine, in collaboration with partners such as CCSM, Speaking Up For Us, the University of Maine Center for Community Inclusion and Disability Studies, and the Maine Developmental Disabilities Council, has released candidate videos. These videos feature individuals running for Governor, U.S. Senate, and U.S. House in Maine, allowing them to directly address voters regarding their policy and platform priorities concerning the disability community. All candidates for each respective race were invited to submit a video, and the published content represents the submissions received. The initiative aims to provide voters with direct insight into how candidates plan to support and address the needs of individuals with disabilities in Maine.
