State Budget Survey from Senator Libby Mitchell

Dear Friends,

Governor John Baldacci has proposed a number of bold ideas to help balance Maine's roughly $6.5 billion for the next two years.

Please fill out the online survey below to help me determine if we should follow through on some of the Governor's proposals like reducing Maine's school districts from 152 to 26 if it means increased money for students and increased property tax relief.

Below is a rough snapshot of where your tax dollars go.

Sincerely,

Libby
