The Rural Caucus of the Maine State Legislature
The Rural Maine Caucus was created within the Legislature to form a cohesive organization that:
- Represents the center of the spectrum in the Maine State Legislature;
- Can appeal to rural mainstream values in the public;
- Would develop proposals and positions as they relate to rural Maine;
- Is independent of the leadership of either party;
- Is able to influence the legislative process collectively.
The Caucus has briefings on issues of concern to rural Maine and discusses whether there is a position or other action that should be taken as a group. To the extent possible, MRP will meet with the new Caucus leadership to distribute information about Caucus activities.
To the extent possible, topics for Caucus sessions will be posted on our events calendar.
