Maine's Largest City Becomes First on US East Coast to Back Israel Divestment
Lawmakers in Portland, Maine voted unanimously on Wednesday to divest public funds from "all entities complicit" in Israel's assault on the Gaza Strip, making the city the first on the U.S. East Coast to take such a step.

Maine law thwarts impact of school choice decision, lawsuit says
PORTLAND, Maine (AP) — A Christian school at the center of a Supreme Court decision that required Maine to include religious schools in a state tuition program is appealing a ruling upholding a requirement that all participating facilities abide by a state antidiscrimination law.

That’s unconstitutional.” The lawsuit is one of two in Maine that focus on the collision between the 2022 U.S. Supreme Court ruling and the state law requiring that schools participating in the tuition program abide by the Maine Human Rights Act, which includes protections for LGBTQ students and faculty.

Maine’s Only Weather Predicting Lobster Gives His Winter Forecast
I mean, a lobster is probably as accurate as any meteorologist... Ok, that's not entirely fair, as meteorologists have computer models to draw from and all sorts of other scientific methods to ensure they're forecasts are as accurate as possible. A lobster has a brain about the size of the tip of a pen, so they're predictions may not seem as potentially accurate. But there are certainly times it feels like they're right on par.
