ABOUT US

Welcome to the Maine Prosperity Project. We are a resource for employers, employees and retirees here to keep you informed about what is taking place in the Maine State Legislature and Statehouse, as well as what our federal delegation is up to in Washington.

We are a pro-growth, pro-job organization of a network of more than 5,000 businesses in partnership with the Maine State Chamber of Commerce, ready to engage you in the legislative process. We will keep you informed about proposed laws that will make Maine a better place to work and live, and proposed laws that threaten to harm our business climate and potential for job growth.

Every day, our elected leaders in Augusta and Washington make decisions impacting the ability of Maine’s companies to survive and compete.  This directly affects you -- your job, your wages, your family -- and your future. We give you the tools to communicate with elected officials about the issues that affect you – and track their voting records after each vote.

We believe that when Maine voters are informed and engaged in government and elections – our economy, our workers, our families and our state benefit.

The Maine Prosperity Project is a non-partisan issue education and election service. The Prosperity Project does not endorse candidates. It does not tell you how to vote.
