TV 7 interviews Brewer on how a new federal bill impacts Mainers

WFVX (FOX 22/ABC 7) interviewed Mark Brewer, chair and professor of political science at the University of Maine, on the implications for Mainers of a new federal bill in regards to specific federal assistance programs. “It’s going to add to the deficit. I think independent, objective analysis has made that clear. How much, there’s a difference of opinion, but it’s going to be a lot. There are going to be millions of people who will lose access to healthcare coverage, I think that is also clear. I think it’s also relatively clear, again, despite what some would argue, that higher earners are going to benefit from this bill more than lower earners,” Brewer said.
