Ryan Fecteau, Speaker of the Maine House of Representatives, discussed the status of the supplemental budget, which is stuck in the Senate due to failing to garner two-thirds support in the House. The emergency provision was stripped out, but it remains intact in the Senate. Fecteau emphasized the urgency of funding for providers like hospitals and nursing homes and the spruce budworm issue.
