Our "PAC" allows Maine Restaurant Association members and member's
employees to financially support candidates who support our
industry. Our PAC is the "on the record, ethical system for
supporting candidates and industry issues.
We must support candidates who believe in our industry and
support our issues. Political decisions in Augusta determine
your ability to do business in Maine and earn a just profit.
Failing to pay attention to what Government is doing to business
in general and to our industry in particular is like ignoring
a major new competitor in your neighborhood. You would not ignore
the actions of your competitor. Can you afford to ignore the
actions of Government? Government has been ignored for so long
Maine is now ranked 1st in Taxation and 48th in the nation as
a "business friendly state."
We appear to have been way too short on "Taking Action" and
way too "accepting of the result." And then we re-elect the
same people to go back to Augusta and do it all over again!
You Decide Where To Invest Your Money! If you know a specific
candidate, you may wish to target your contribution to that
candidate through the Maine Restaurant Association PAC, Restaurateurs
For A Strong Maine Economy. You can do that! You may wish to
target a political party or specific industry issues, you can
do that as well.
The important thing is to elect the best candidates who will
strive to balance the budget, lower the tax burden on Maine
citizens and get our economy moving again!
It is your PAC, Your Choice, Your Voice! It requires Your Action!
