Take Action: Legislators

  • Sign on to support paid leave.

    Here is our pledge for legislators. Please sign on and urge your fellow legislators to sign on, too! From there, we will send you a social media shareable image to thank you for your support and a digital paid leave supporter badge and content to include on your website, social media, newsletter, and anything else you might send out.

  • Let us know how we can help.

    We want to make it as easy as possible for you to spread the word about the importance of paid leave for Maine people. If you need a list of talking points about why paid leave is good for Maine and your community, let us know!

  • Let us know what kinds of questions people have.

    When you’re doing doors for re-election, or if you’re at your local party meeting, talk about paid leave. Ask people what they have questions about - then let us know! And of course, we can help answer questions if you’re unsure of the answer or if you need to respond to a constituent.

  • Follow us!

    Follow us on social media - and share our content with your networks!

  • Learn more.

    Learn more about paid leave. Share with friends and family. Share information with neighbors and other legislators. Ask them to share with their networks as well!

  • Share your story.

    Take a look at our story archive featuring Mainers who have been impacted by access to paid leave or lack thereof. Want to join the conversation? We’d love to have your voice - legislators’ voices in this conversation are critical! Share your story with us via our story sharing form or by emailing us.

  • Send us a quote about why you support paid leave.

    We’d love to hear about why you support paid leave - and why it’s so important to pass a quality, comprehensive paid leave policy for Maine. Email us your quote (and if you wish, your headshot) and we will create a shareable that we both can share.

  • Host an event.

    We love a good community event at the local library or a happy hour where people are talking about policies that will help people. If you want to host one of our coalition members to get your constituents and local leaders pumped about paid leave, we can help! Email us to get started!
