LD1274

An Act to Cap State General Assistance Reimbursement to Municipalities

Failed·5/6/25
Tpdf Text

Maine LD1274 would cap state general assistance reimbursement to municipalities at 50% of total funds.

Maine LD1274 amends the Maine Revised Statutes to ensure that no single municipality receives more than 50% of the total funds reimbursed to municipalities for general assistance in a fiscal year. This change aims to balance the distribution of state general assistance funds among municipalities, preventing any one municipality from receiving a disproportionate share of the total reimbursement.
