Maine Labor Mural: Paul LePage Received Thousands Of Angry Emails Over Removal Decision





"The raw outpouring of emotion, with people opposing the governor's action by a margin of more than 9-to-1, flooded the governor's office with several thousand emails in less than a month.

"Your attacks on the working class of your state are just appalling to me and despite my love of the Maine coast, I will not set foot or spend one red cent there," wrote Audrey Fine Marsh of Media, Pa."

The governor feels that the labor mural suggested the Labor Department cared only about workers, not businesses.

Someone opposed to Governor LePage's removal of the mural wrote--

"If business is not represented here, why not just add a mural of a rich man lighting a cigar with a $1,000 bill?"
