About The Event
*UPDATE FROM APRIL 30TH*
From the Yarmouth Republicans.
Hello Fellow Republicans –
With regret, I am emailing to inform you that our event scheduled for this May 2nd has been canceled.
Recent events would seem to indicate that activists who oppose our agenda and our speakers have threatened to protest & disrupt the event and overwhelm YELP with negative criticisms of the host venue, Toddy Brook Golf Center.
Consequently, the host has reluctantly asked us to cancel the event out of concerns for the health & welfare of the business and the safety of its employees and clientele.
While our instincts may have been to proceed out of principle in the face of anonymous threats, we have graciously ceded to our host's understandable concerns and, subsequently, with regret, have canceled the event.
Make no mistake, this is a brazen mob assault on the foundational principle of free speech. Moreover, it is an unprovoked threat and bullying against a lawful business.
While the immediate circumstances called for us to respectfully accommodate our host's concerns, they also compel us to seek out and expose the source of the threats. We'll keep you posted.
Meanwhile, thank you for your steadfast support of conservative values and the foundational principles of freedom enshrined in our own US Constitution and Bill of Rights.
Sincerely,
Chair, Yarmouth Republicans
--------------------------------------------
Just a quick note to let you know about an opportunity you don't want to miss! I'll be joining Steve Robinson of The Maine Wire at the Toddy Brook Golf Center in North Yarmouth from 6 pm to 8 pm on Tuesday, May 2nd for "An Evening of Conservative Voices." It's FREE to attend!
The Yarmouth Republican Committee invited me and Steve to discuss the sorry state of public education in Maine, and what can be done about it. The timing couldn't be better, with scores of local school board seats in Cumberland and neighboring counties up for grabs on June 13th.
Steve and I will be drilling down into the ideological framework Leftist educators have imposed on Maine's K-12 government-run schools, from social/emotional learning to race-based identity politics to Queer Theory. Again, admission is free and open to all.
See you at Toddy Brook in North Yarmouth on May 2nd!
Best Regards,
Hon. Lawrence Lockman
Maine House of Representatives, 2012-2020
Co-founder & President of Maine First Project
