Letter: Maine tourism industry needs help

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • August 11, 2020

The Maine tourism industry has carried the great state of Maine for many, many years. Billions in tax revenues have gone into the general fund and the industry has generated more than 100,000 jobs. Currently, Maine tourism still leads the state in both of these categories. Gov. Janet Mills can step up and help the tourism industry of Maine. There are federal funds to help businesses at this time that Mills has not utilized. Please thank her for the health of Mainers and ask her to help the health of her largest revenue producer for Maine. ~ Vaughn Stinson, Former CEO, Maine Tourism Association
