Kudos to Emily Duggan, the Maine Sunday Telegram and the Kennebec Journal for their exemplary investigative report (Nov. 23) on the parents’ rights movement and the intrusion of outside voices and money into the very fabric of life in Maine.
That forces from outside Maine can try to influence local school board elections, encourage disruption of meetings and dictate how towns in rural Maine choose to educate their children is deeply disturbing. It’s a story everyone should read. Such reporting requires months of research and is a perfect example of why we need local newspapers to stay strong and keep us informed.
Thank you.
