AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

LIHEAP & heating costs: Sen. Susan Collins backed Gov. Janet Mills’ push for more LIHEAP funding, saying Maine needs help as home-heating oil prices rise and warning the Trump administration has proposed cutting the program. Gun law in the spotlight: A Montana-led coalition of 24 state AGs asked the U.S. Supreme Court to take up a challenge to Maine’s 72-hour gun-purchase waiting period, arguing it violates the Second Amendment even after background checks. Public safety & community: LifeFlight of Maine held an event to reunite flight crews with patients they saved, offering closure and a look at how the service works. Firefighters remembered: Augusta hosted the Maine Firefighter Memorial Service, honoring firefighters killed in the line of duty, including two who died after a Searsmont explosion. Maine sports: UMaine men’s hockey fell to Holy Cross in OT; UMaine football lost to Sacred Heart 24-16. Local human interest: Skowhegan teacher Richard Drown runs the Maine Marathon to support the Autism Society of Maine, sharing a message of structure and never giving up.
