So how do I use this information?
Here are a few suggestions;
1.) Use the MERI information to have meaningful conversations with legislators. Let those legislators who have supported a strong Maine economy know how much their leadership is valued. Talk to those legislators who did not receive a positive MERI Economic Rating about Maine's economy.

2.) Candidates for public office without a MERI Economic Rating may have answered our candidate survey ( posted in full on our website). Read their responses and engage them in a conversation. Encourage candidate/legislators to contact you for input during the legislative session

3) Help MERI continue to grow . Share the information with other business people.
4) Invite MERI to your local chamber, service organization or association meeting for a Briefing.
5.) Speak up. When the media presents misinformation and faulty logic, let them know your views That goes for supporting MERI, too!.
