I believe a “make polluters pay” bill, LD 1870, is the most important bill in the Legislature this session that would begin to protect us. LD 1870 would fund a study of exactly how much money climate change is costing Maine taxpayers. We would then be able to require the biggest oil profiteers to refund this amount to our state and municipalities. Tell your representative how you want them to vote on this. ~ Richard Thomas, Waterville
