LD1711 | Resolve, to Allow Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program Benefits to Be Used to Purchase Ready-to-cook Meals | This resolve requires the Department of Health and Human Services to request a waiver from the United States Department of Agriculture to allow the State to allow the use of federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits for the purchase of ready-to-cook meals. The Department of Health and Human Services is directed to notify retailers and other providers of ready-to-cook meals of the rule change. | Dead |
LD1367 | Resolve, to Study Methods of Gradually Transitioning Individuals from Government Assistance Programs to the Workforce | This resolve directs the Department of Health and Human Services to conduct a study to evaluate methods of gradually transitioning recipients of assistance away from MaineCare and other government assistance programs.

LD1685 | RESOLUTION, Proposing an Amendment to the Constitution of Maine Concerning the Direct Initiative Process | This resolution proposes to amend the Constitution of Maine by modifying the direct initiative process to remove the requirement that a measure proposed by the people must go to referendum vote before becoming law when the Legislature has enacted an amended form of the measure proposed by the people or a substitute to the measure proposed by the people by an affirmative vote of 2/3 of the members of each House present and voting. The resolution clarifies that if the Governor vetoes the measure, and the veto is sustained by the Legislature, the measure must then be referred to a referendum. The resolution clarifies that in the case that the Legislature has enacted an amended form of the measure proposed by the people or a substitute to the measure proposed by the people by a majority vote, but does not reach the 2/3 threshold, both the original and amended version of the measure must be sent to a referendum in such a manner that the people can choose one or the other, or reject both. The resolution also makes organizational changes to improve clarity. | Dead |

LD711 | An Act to Facilitate the State Meeting Its Climate Goals While Protecting Farms | This bill requires the Public Utilities Commission to adopt rules to establish a process by which an entity proposing the development of a distributed generation resource for net energy billing on nonfertile land may appeal a denial of a good-cause exemption related to delays. The bill requires the commission to find that delays related to site inspections and local government approvals are external delays outside of the entity's control. The bill defines "nonfertile land" as land that cannot be used for or is not capable of use without substantial modification for production of agriculturally related products, including, but not limited to, crops, livestock, poultry, dairy products and sod. | Dead |
