Does Sen. Eloise Vitelli (D-Bath) Stand With BIW or Jackson & Gideon?

AUGUSTA - Maine Republican Party Executive Director, Jason Savage,
issued the following statement:

"While Democrat leaders like Senate President Troy Jackson and Speaker
Sara Gideon attempt to renege on a $45 million tax break granted to Bath
Iron Works, Democrats like Sen. Eloise Vitelli (D-Bath) who represents
the district and many of it's workers are shockingly quiet.

It is incredibly disturbing that Democrat leadership would send a
threatening letter to one of
Maine's largest employers, one that provides good wages, employs
Mainers in all 16 counties,
and is a major economic driver for the state. This is just another
example of the Democrat anti-
business and job killing agenda and it must be stopped.

Bath Iron Works, their workers, and surrounding communities deserve to
know where their elected leaders stand on this massive tax hike that
Democrats are pushing in Augusta.

We call on Senator Eloise Vitelli (D-Bath) and Senator Brownie Carson
(D-Harpswell) who represent large numbers of BIW workers to answer one
simple question: Do you stand with BIW and their workers or your party
leaders in Augusta?"- Executive Director Jason Savage
