Mcce action supports measures that increase fairness, inclusion, and opportunity in our politics and promote robust participation by maine people in their government. We work in the public interest to advocate for, increase public support, and defend and improve the maine clean election act and related campaign finance law. The 2016 election saw an increase in the number of incoming lawmakers using clean elections. There are now 62% of the maine house of representatives and 74% of the maine senate who are clean election legislators.

Form 990-ez, Part IV

The executive director salary was paid via a common paymaster, a related organization (maine citizens for clean elections, a 501c3 organization). Mcce action reimbursed 100% of mcce action's portion of salaries, taxes, and fringe benefits to maine citizens for clean elections. Due to this arrangement, no w2 was paid out of mcce action.
