2012 Maine New Leadership graduate crafting ethics legislation for Governor LePage

Shelbe Lane, a UMaine student and graduate of the 2012 Maine New Leadership program, is assisting the Governor’s office in researching and writing omnibus ethics reform legislation for the State of Maine. As noted in an article in the Bangor Daily News, Shelbe “will make the legislation the subject of her Honors College thesis. That, in turn … will be turned into a bill from the governor’s office.” The full article can be found at http://bangordailynews.com/2012/09/19/politics/lepage-and-house-democratic-leader-emily-cain-announce-plans-to-improve-state-ethics/.
