"Gov. Paul LePage has asked President Donald Trump to reverse an executive order by the Obama administration that created the Katahdin Woods and Waters National Monument and return the land to private ownership.
In a two-page letter dated Feb. 14, the Republican governor asks Trump to enact the reversal “before economic damage occurs and traditional recreational pursuits are diminished.” The Bangor Daily News obtained a copy of the letter Wednesday, and it was verified by LePage spokesman Peter Steele. Steele declined to comment further."

Ive been whitewater rafting nearby. Beautiful area. The designation seems like it has a positive economic, educational and cultural value for Maine.

LePage grew up with 17
LePage grew up with 17 siblings and an abusive father. He seems callous from other articles I've read, with little sympathy for others not aligned with his view.
