AUGUSTA — Senate Majority Leader Teresa S. Pierce, D-Falmouth, earned a perfect score from the Maine Women’s Lobby for votes during the 132nd Legislature.
“Supporting measures to protect the rights, health and well-being of women builds safe communities and strong economies,” said Sen. Pierce. “Whether it’s investing in family planning and childcare or breaking down systemic barriers, these new laws will make a difference and reaffirm our caucus’ commitment to delivering on issues that are meaningful to Maine women.”
Sen. Pierce has been an outspoken advocate for women’s rights and health throughout her legislative career in both the House and the Senate. In 2026, Pierce led the effort to invest $5 million in ongoing funds for family planning service providers across Maine – often the only access point to essential healthcare for many Mainers.
