This is just a comment about the commitment of local business to local causes. In the list of businesses that were shutting down last week, or not shutting down but making a donation in support of the national strike in support of the anti-ICE movement, there was not one national chain that I could find. No Hannaford, no Starbucks, no McDonald’s, no Walmart.
This is one more reason to support local businesses that have a stake in the state of Maine.
