LIBERTY FOR MAINE NEWS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT: James Oaksun LIBERTY FOR MAINE FORMED Saco, Maine - Today, Liberty for Maine was formed. The new organization will advance the interests of freedom and liberty in Maine in an active, creative and assertive manner, offer support to similar efforts underway in many other states and nationally, and engage in other activities as appropriate. James Oaksun, 47, a Saco businessman and a Maine delegate to the 2008 Libertarian National Convention, chairs the new group. According to Oaksun, the group has a full slate of officers, and its operating bylaws are available upon request. The group has also declared its support for the Statement of Principles of the national Libertarian Party. Mr. Oaksun said, "Many important efforts are in progress across Maine and across America right now, and there are many people here in Maine who are totally frustrated and discouraged because there has been no organization in Maine that has worked actively, publicly and consistently to chart a new course toward freedom. Until now. "Over the next 90 days," Oaksun continued, "our new group will focus on education, outreach and marketing, principally at the major summer festivals in Maine which attract thousands of visitors from across Maine and across America. We will start with the Southern Maine Pride events in June. With the recent passage of marriage equality here in Maine and the likelihood of a referendum campaign on the matter, the Maine LGBT community and its allies are energized like never before. It's a golden opportunity to align Maine libertarians in support of a vital and immediate human rights and freedom issue." Oaksun said Liberty for Maine would work in concert with its principal corporate sponsor, Virtual Galt Corporation, in advancement of freedom.
For additional information, Oaksun can be reached at 603.397.3387, or via email at James@Liberty4Maine.org.
