Show Notes
Maine lawmakers allocate $1.5M for nonprofit security grants, targeting high-risk groups like houses of worship to protect against hate crimes and terror attacks. The new program comes as federal funding faces uncertainties, with nearly twenty other states already having similar initiatives. Despite GOP concerns about scope and taxpayer funds for private organizations, the bill passed mostly along party lines, with Governor Janet Mills support, ensuring nonprofits get necessary security tools.
