Through credible, rigorous economic analysis, the Maine Center for Economic Policy advances solutions for economic justice and shared prosperity.

MECEP is an independent, nonpartisan research and policy organization dedicated to improving the economic well-being of low- and moderate-income Mainers. For 25 years, MECEP has worked to put the facts front-and-center in public policy debates by providing research and analysis to citizens, policymakers, advocates, and journalists. MECEP has successfully fought to expand access to health care and education, increase the minimum wage, and un-rig our tax code so we can make the investments that help communities thrive.
