They Don't Want Our Lobster, We Don't Want IKEA!

The Issue

It has come to our attention that the country of Sweden is trying to get Maine lobster classified as an "invasive species," and banning the sale of live lobsters in Europe. And Mainers won't stand for that attack!

We want to strike back at Sweden where it hurts and call for a ban on IKEA stores  in Maine! We understand there isn't an IKEA in Maine now, but we want to be proactive and make sure that the Swedes can't use our state for profit by opening a store here.

We propose this ban stay in place until this needless attack on delicious Maine lobster is dropped and the world can once again enjoy these delicious crustaceans!
