AUGUSTA (AP) — Maine Republican Gov. Paul LePage may not think the state government can stay open because of a budget dispute, he is optimistic that state parks will stay open.
Sides agree that a shutdown at the start of tourism season would be costly. But LePage told WVOM-FM Tuesday that “the future of Maine is worth shutting it down.”
LePage says he’ll make sure state parks remain open during a shutdown.
