Holding the Line: Key Wins from Maine’s 132nd Legislative Session

At a time when environmental protections and democratic institutions are under pressure nationwide, Maine moved forward. Together, we championed energy affordability, made progress on climate accountability, advanced land conservation and tribal issues, expanded access to clean energy, and grappled with the challenges posed by large-scale data centers. This session is a testament to what’s possible when organizations, advocates, and Maine people unite for a fairer, more sustainable future.

At this Lunch & Learn, you’ll hear from us and key partners including A Climate to Thrive, Appalachian Mountain Club, Maine Youth for Climate Justice, the Natural Resources Council of Maine, and the Wabanaki Alliance. We’ll break down the new laws, what they mean for Maine’s families and communities, and how these changes could shape our future.

Whether you followed the session closely or just want to catch up, you’ll leave with a clear, grounded sense of where we are now and the possibilities ahead.
