#District13 looks to take care of its own health care needs!
Despite new federal guidelines, #JanetMills looks to expand #Covid19 vaccine availability in #Maine
BY Susan Cover Maine
PUBLISHED 2:19 PM ET Sep. 08, 2025WATERVILLE — "Gov. Janet Mills said Monday she’s working to ensure that Mainers who want to get a COVID-19 vaccination at local pharmacies without a prescription can get one.
" 'We’re working with the attorney general’s office in Maine to clarify whether we can issue a standing order and take measures like that,' she told reporters. 'We want to make sure everyone who wants to get a shot can get one.'
"She expects more information to come out this week.
"Last week, Massachusetts Gov. #MauraHealey took steps to ensure that vaccines, including those for COVID, flu and RSV, remain readily available and covered by insurance.
"Like Maine, Massachusetts is one of 16 states prohibited from offering COVID vaccines at pharmacies without a prescription following new federal guidelines restricting who is eligible for the shot.
"The federal guidelines issued Aug. 27 authorize vaccines for those 65 and older or those with at least one underlying medical condition. Others need a prescription to get the vaccine.
"In response, the Massachusetts public health commissioner issued an order Sept. 3 allowing pharmacies to continue to provide COVID shots to those 5 and older, according to Healey’s office. That prompted CVS and Walgreens pharmacies in Massachusetts to work toward making appointments available, the governor’s office said in a press release.
"Healey’s office also noted that it is 'leading efforts to create a public health collaboration with states in #NewEngland and across the #Northeast committed to safeguarding public health as the federal government backs away from its responsibilities.'
"Mills said in Maine, officials need to ensure pharmacists and physicians are protected from 'any liability' that might arise from the discrepancy between state and federal guidelines.
"After attending a Rotary meeting in Waterville, Mills mentioned the group’s efforts to eradicate polio worldwide. As she mulls a run for U.S. Senate — a decision she’ll announce in November — she said changes to the federal public health system are one of her top concerns.
" 'The current state of affairs, the state of flux in the public health system nationally is of great concern right this minute,' she said.

Apparently, some millionaires moved out of the state. Imagine what would happen if EVERY state (and country) TAXED THE RICH PROPORTIONALLY!
#Massachusetts - Here’s how much the new ‘#MillionairesTax’ has raised this year (it’s a lot)
The tax on the rich is bringing in more than expected and will fund transportation and education initiatives.
By Beth Treffeisen
May 21, 2024"The '#MillionairesTax,' which went into effect for the first time last year, is set to bring in billions.
"State officials announced Monday that the surtax on high earners had generated more than $1.8 billion in revenue this fiscal year, with three months left to go, according to the State House News Service.
"This means state officials could have millions of dollars to spend on transportation and education initiatives.
"Any additional money raised beyond the $1 billion already budgeted would go to a reserve account, where state policymakers can ask for one-time investments in projects or programs.
"The SHNS reported that the revenue from the tax is already $800 million more than the Legislature and Gov. #MauraHealey planned to spend in surtax revenue for all of the fiscal year 2024.
"The Department of Revenue won’t certify the official amount raised until later this year.
"However, the estimates supported claims that the surtax would generate significant revenue for the state, despite fears that it would drive out some of its wealthiest residents.
"In 2022, voters approved the ballot initiative that levies an additional 4 percent tax on annual earnings over $1 million.
" 'Opponents of the Fair Share Amendment claimed that multi-millionaires would flee Massachusetts rather than pay the new tax, and they are being proven wrong every day,' Andrew Farnitano, a spokesperson for #RaiseUpMassachusetts, the union-backed group that pushed the 2022 ballot initiative, told the Boston Globe.
" 'With this money from the #UltraRich, we can do even more to improve our public #schools and #colleges, invest in roads, bridges, and #PublicTransit, and start building an economy that works for everyone,' Farnitano said.
"But Massachusetts has struggled with residents leaving the state recently, taking their taxable income with them.
"The announcement from the latest DOR quarterly report, described during Senate proceedings, is welcome news for budget writers who had been seeing declines in tax revenues for months.
"State tax collections have lagged behind projections for most of the 2024 fiscal year, SHNS reported, even after Healey implemented spending cuts.
"According to an analysis by the Pioneer Institute, Massachusetts lost $4.3 billion in adjusted gross income in 2021, 40 percent more than the prior year. The data shows that nearly 25,200 more tax filers had moved out of the state than moved in."

Wow I have asthma and take meds and have an air cleaner and I still have attacks. It's horrible not to be able to breathe. It's amazing the utter lack of compassion he has.
My doctor told me that with #asthma/ #allergies everything builds on the other stuff and makes the threshold lower to have attacks. So this stuff matters.
He stopped $900,000 worth of a #grant
Daily Hampshire Gazette: #Trump slashes funds for #asthma sufferers in western #Massachusetts
The Trump administration has eliminated roughly $1 million in funding from the Environmental Protection Agency #EPA to the state Department of #PublicHealth intended specifically to address asthma in western Massachusetts, according to Gov. #MauraHealey’s office. This termination comes shortly after the #AmericanLungAssociation reported a decline in air quality across the state and region.
The money was meant to provide in-home air quality remediations to combat environmental factors, such as improvements to ventilation and the removal of mold throughout Chicopee, Holyoke and Springfield. The state was promised about $1 million over three years for these remediations, but the withheld funding comprises nearly $900,000 of that amount. The DPH so far has spent approximately $100,000 of the money to address asthma in communities disproportionately at risk.

In the history of #Massachusetts, has an emergency preamble ever been added by the governor AFTER already signing a bill, just to circumvent a referendum petition? Absolute tyranny.

Most Americans interact with and know about their state government more than the federal government. Prominent, competent, progressive women in state office do more than govern their states well. They normalize the idea of powerful women doing powerful jobs.
