Maine Action Alert: Email Appropriations Committee Now

Maine babies need your help now! Email the Appropriations Committee and ask them to fund LD 85 (HP 51), An Act Concerning MaineCare Coverage for Donor Breast Milk.

This bill would require MaineCare to cover pasteurized donor human milk. The legislature has approved the bill, but they have not yet funded it. It is competing with hundreds of other bills for funding.

What can you do?

Email the Appropriations Committee now. Ask them to fund LD85 (HP 51). Send your email to the Clerk of Appropriations and ask them to distribute your email to the Appropriations Committee. Volume of email matters: the more they hear from the public, the more likely they will fund this bill.
