On Oct. 7, 2025, HCDC hosted a moderated forum to address the threats our healthcare system faces in light of federal budget cuts, recent closures, and financial pressures. Panelists discussed these challenges and what can be done.
Panelists included:
- Doug Jones, former President and CEO of Maine Coast Memorial Hospital and Downeast Hospital in Machias
- David Jolly, Vice-Chair of Maine AllCare
- Bruce Becque, RN and former Chief Steward of MSNA Local #188 at Maine Coast Hospital.
This forum was sponsored by The Hancock County Democrats and friends.
