Governor Janet Mills vetoed a bill (LD 1231) restructuring Maine's income tax brackets to benefit middle-income earners and raise taxes for wealthier residents.
Governor Janet Mills vetoed a bill, LD 1231, aimed at restructuring Maine's income tax brackets to benefit middle-income earners and raise taxes for wealthier residents. The bill lacked the required two-thirds support to override the veto, and Mills opposed it due to its process and concerns over its lack of meaningful tax relief. Critics see the veto as a missed opportunity to address fairness in Maine's tax code.
