Governor Janet Mills on Monday unveiled the first $139 million in COVID-19 relief spending under a nearly $1 billion spending plan approved by her party.

Mills was set to visit Lewiston on Monday as she touts her party’s $983 million COVID-19 relief plan, which will use federal money made available through the American Rescue Plan Act. According to the Bangor Daily News, the governor was scheduled to take a downtown business walk Monday afternoon.

The governor’s office says the Maine Jobs & Recovery Plan, which went into effect Monday, will set aside $20 million for a new small business grant program, $39 million to reduce monthly health insurance premiums, and $80 million to replenish the Maine Unemployment Trust fund and reduce the impact of tax hikes on small businesses.
