March 1, 2021 Town of Buxton 185 Portland Road Buxton, ME 04093 Dear Friends a d Neighbors, It has been a pleasure to serve the residents of House District 22 in the Maine Legislature. I am honored that you have entrusted me again with this responsibility. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the second session of the 129th Legislature adjourned Sine Die on March 17, 2020. The opening on December 2nd of the 130th Legislature was still impacted by the pandemic and to ensure social distancing, the Swearing In was held at the Augusta Civic Center instead of the chambers in the State House. This session, our biggest priority is addressing the next biennial budget with which we’re facing a serious budget shortfall over the next three years. Difficult decisions will have to be made for prioritizing resources to make ends meet. I encourage you to actively participate in your state government. Phone calls and letters are always a welcomed avenue for providing feedback. This session, with the increased utilization in remote meetings and hearings, happenings in Augusta are now even more accessible. Using the homepage of the Maine Legislature: Legislature.Maine.Gov , you will find access to Zoommeetings, public hearings, and YouTube videos providing updates on the latest at our State Capitol. To join my weekly eNewsletter featuring current state news, please contact me at Mark.Blier@legislature.maine.gov and I will happily add you to my distribution. Again, thank you for giving me the honor of serving you in Augusta and may you all have a safe and healthy 2021.
