Bob
Klotz reports from the Saturday March For Our Lives protest in Portland where he
and others went to make connections to LD 1781:
The powerful solidarity
associated with the international March For Our Lives was clearly evident with
the over 3,000 people in Portland, Maine -- and was all the more reinforced with
engagement around opposition to L.D. 1781. Bob Klotz and Sarah Lachance
distributed 300 informational fliers and, along with Paul Cunningham, had
numerous conversations with March participants about the issue. People were
familiar and supportive and unfamiliar and interested. The family-friendly event
amplified the family/people-unfriendly nature of this bill, with many
acknowledging that $60 million is needed by the people of the state, not an
obscenely profitable multi-national corporation.
