keep the homestead exemption in place
Why is this important?
When Gov. LaPage got into office he started full scale assault on Maine State Gov. positions as a result I chose to leave my 30 year job supporting people with mental retardation so I could continue to get my health insurance. Now as a property owner on a fixed income I am worried I will no longer be able to afford to live in Maine. The local property taxes doubled for me last year and every thing has gone up in price since I left my dream job 2 years ago. Lets be more open to raising taxes on folks who can afford to pay them like tourists.
