SP 869 Maine Senate · 132nd Legislature (2025-2026)

Joint Order, To Recall Legislative Document 1643 From The Governor'S Desk

This bill directs the Maine Senate to recall a previously approved piece of legislation from the Governor's desk, effectively pausing its progress toward becoming law. The legislation in question would have established the Maine Life Science Innovation Center, a facility intended to support life science research and development in the state. By recalling the bill, the Senate is choosing to review or reconsider the proposal before it can be signed into effect by the Governor. This procedural action does not change the bill's content but alters its current status in the legislative process.
