LD 1214 Maine Senate · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

An Act To Designate The Second Congressional District "Acadia"

This bill designates Maine's Second Congressional District as "Acadia" for official state use. It amends two sections of Maine law to update references from "Second Congressional District" to "Second Congressional District Acadia" and defines the district's geographic boundaries (including specific counties and towns like Androscoggin, Franklin, and Augusta). The change affects state administrative processes, such as the appointment of board members who must reside in the district. The bill does not alter the district's geographic boundaries but only updates its official name in state statutes.
