Public Hearings and Work Sessions of Interest
The Maine State Chamber of Commerce regularly posts public hearings and work sessions of interest to Maine businesses during legislative session.
Public hearings are open to everyone, despite the Statehouse’s restricted access status during the pandemic. Typically, the committee’s meeting room is listed below, but during the pandemic, Maine State Chamber members should plan to watch and listen to legislative committees by using one of the Legislature’s YouTube channels. The Legislature also released these guides for participation in public hearings and work sessions, and you will need to register to submit testimony if you plan to testify on a particular bill. Also, this public hearing schedule is subject to changes and updates; we advise that you check the committee’s calendar or contact the committee clerk. Each committee name listed below is linked to the corresponding committee page.

public hearings and work sessions are winding down.
At this point, our focus now shifts to the floor debates in the House and Senate.
