Patch - A longtime Freeport firm, Fine Lines Construction, is moving its offices this June from Main Street to the former Stars and Stripes Brewing Co. site on Varney Road and adding a cabinet and millwork shop by September.

Maine Morning Star - President Donald Trump said he supports a bill from Democratic U.S. Rep.Jared Golden to extend the pause on federal lobster rules. Last month, Golden introduced a bill to continue shielding Maine lobstermen from new regulations to protect North Atlantic right whales until 2035. “The need to protect Maine’s iconic lobster industry knows no party,” Golden said in a statement. “I’m grateful for the President’s support for Maine’s lobstermen and hopeful that my colleagues in the House will join me in quickly passing this bill into law.” On Friday, the Trump administration announced its strong support of the bill in a Statement of Administration Policy and said the president would sign the legislation if Congress sends it to his desk.
