Gov. Janet Mills won’t sign two bills dealing with “ghost guns” and an expansion of online gambling, opting instead to hold the bills until lawmakers return potentially next year.
The governor’s office on Tuesday released a list of roughly 60 bills that passed the Legislature late last month but that Mills won’t take any action on until state lawmakers reconvene. Mills was prohibited from vetoing the bills because lawmakers adjourned the 2025 session but could still put her veto pen to work when they return…
[A] measure that Mills is holding would allow the Wabanaki Nations to offer online gambling.
The Passamaquoddy Tribe, the Penobscot Nation, Mi’kmaq Nation and Houlton Band of Maliseet Indians already have exclusive access to offer online sports betting in Maine.
