This is a sad, sad day for the workers at the Bucksport mill, - TopicsExpress



          

This is a sad, sad day for the workers at the Bucksport mill, their families, and the people, businesses, and communities who have depended on this mill for so many years. In my conversation with Verso President David Paterson this afternoon, I pledged that if I am elected Maine’s next governor, I will do everything in my power to restore jobs to Bucksport. I will help make this facility and its talented workforce a viable part of a new 21st century economy in Maine. At times like this, we also need to be asking ourselves whether our state’s leaders did everything they possibly could to ensure the continued operation of the Bucksport mill. We need to help the Verso Bucksport employees through what will be a very long winter, and we need to develop a real, long-term economic plan for Maine because Maine simply can’t afford more surprises -- and shutdowns -- like this. --Eliot
