As a child, I remember going to a neighbor to borrow a cup of sugar, and in exchange, they may have asked for a cup of milk. By sharing a portion of what we had, we all benefited. Today, I am asking that our richest share a slice of bread to those who turned the dough and made the loaf for them to eat.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maryann Larsen, a retiree who lives in Bangor, described a similar perspective: \u201cFor those individuals and corporations who have prospered here in Maine, good for you, and for all of us. It\u2019s important to remember, though, that you have benefitted from the resources we\u2019ve all paid for\u2026We can\u2019t ask for more from the thousands of us who are giving as much as we can. Asking thriving corporations and individuals to pay what they owe is reasonable, equitable and the right thing to do.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Maura Pillsbury, tax policy analyst at the Maine Center for Economic Policy, spoke about how those bills would bring in revenue that could be used to fund programs like health care, childcare and housing, rather than making cuts that would hurt ordinary Mainers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMaine faces a choice,\u201d she said. \u201cAsk more of those who have the most, or demand even more from those already struggling. Let\u2019s choose fairness.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Charlotte Jacobs, program director for Seedlings to Sunflowers, a non-profit child care and family center in Gorham, said while the math on tax fairness is clear, \u201cthe morality is even clearer. We can\u2019t keep pretending that we can underfund schools and child care centers and expect successful outcomes. We can\u2019t keep choosing millionaires over Maine and call it good governance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kathy Kilrain del Rio, advocacy and programs director at Maine Equal Justice, spoke specifically about the need to raise revenue to fund essential housing priorities in the state budget.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe can pay for housing programs that keep our communities healthy and strong if we ensure the wealthiest among us and corporations pay what they truly owe in taxes. We can stop evictions, and make sure everyone has a safe, affordable home. A home where we rest when we\u2019re sick and need time to get well; a home where we get up every morning to go to work; a home where we tuck our kids into bed every night.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/file\/d\/1B973Cv2OTpmfVqvJZMay-HFBC1nZ30_V\/view?link_id=7&amp;can_id=e97e876071aaf08f1c19416ae5b170e8&amp;source=email-legislators-advocates-experts-urge-augusta-to-tax-the-wealthiest-mainers-to-fund-vital-programs-not-make-cuts&amp;email_referrer=&amp;email_subject=mainers-urge-augusta-to-tax-rich-to-fund-vital-programs-nil-not-make-cuts&amp;&amp;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">New polling finds<\/a>\u00a0that across the political spectrum (and statewide), a majority of Mainers support raising taxes on profitable corporations. Moreover, 65% of Republicans and 65% of those who described themselves as \u201cvery conservative\u201d support increased taxes on income over $1 million a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today\u2019s action was part of the work of Mainers for Tax Fairness, a coalition that includes organizations from across the state, including MPA, Maine Center for Economic Policy, Maine Equal Justice, Maine Education Association, Maine Women\u2019s Lobby, AARP Maine, Maine Council on Aging, and many others focused on housing justice, labor, childcare, and economic equity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>####<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>With more than 32,000 members, MPA is the largest community&nbsp;organization in Maine, and one of the largest in the country.
