Eleven airports across Maine will receive more than $4.2 million in federal funding to support critical infrastructure upgrades, as part of the Federal Aviation Administration’s Fiscal Year 2025 Airport Infrastructure Grants program.... The grants are aimed at enhancing safety, extending the life of key infrastructure, and supporting economic development in communities throughout the state, according to a press release from Sen. Susan Collins' office.  

Press Herald  Mainers have mixed feelings about the Trump administration’s intervention in state policies and programs, including funding cuts and efforts to ban transgender athletes from girls sports. But they are sour on the two men leading the charge: President Donald Trump and billionaire Elon Musk, according to an independent poll released Monday.

The 66th Pan Atlantic Omnibus Poll, which represents a snapshot in time, shows all four members of the state’s congressional delegation with positive approval ratings — meaning more respondents approve than disapproves of their performance — while Musk and Trump were under water at -19% and -9% respectively.
