Maine Center for Economic Policy Report
A report by the Maine Center for Economic Policy (MECEP) titled "Sovereignty Starts Here: Land, Economy, and Tribal Rights in Maine" explores the link between land sovereignty and statewide economic growth.
The report, released on the 14th, argues that strengthening tribal self-governance would address historical injustices and create shared economic benefits for communities across the state.
MECEP researchers emphasize that economic justice and sovereignty are closely connected and that when Wabanaki nations are able to thrive, Maine's broader economy and society benefit as well.
Published during Indigenous Peoples' Month, the report has sparked a renewed conversation about Maine's relationship with the Wabanaki nations and the role of land in building a more equitable future.
