AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Public Safety in Augusta: Maine Revenue Services in Augusta was evacuated after a suspicious package was opened inside the building Wednesday afternoon; state police bomb squad testing found no explosive or biological hazards, and no one was hurt, though the case remains under investigation. Politics: A new Fox News poll shows Democratic U.S. Senate challenger Troy Jackson edging Susan Collins 48%-46%, with voters more worried about Collins voting too often with Donald Trump than about Jackson being too close to the Democratic Socialist movement. Health Policy: President Trump signed an executive order targeting routine childhood vaccines, including splitting MMR into three doses and directing the Justice Department to investigate states over parental and religious exemptions—sparking fresh legal and political debate. Wildlife & Environment: UMaine researchers reported the first known footage of American woodcocks defending nests from deer, while Maine’s Inland Fisheries and Wildlife is asking residents to join the “Deer Spy” program to track deer sightings statewide. Sports: Sanford Mainers won their third NECBL championship, beating Danbury 12-5 in Game 3.
