What makes one state’s approach to consumer protection worth watching? In this episode, we explore key takeaways from Kelley Drye’s webinar with leaders from the Maine Attorney General’s Office, examining how the state’s unique legislative election of its attorney general, robust citizen ballot initiative process, and needs-driven enforcement strategy are shaping consumer protection priorities.
