Career[edit]
Gattine is from Westbrook, Maine. In the 128th Maine Legislature he served as the chair of the House Appropriations and Financial Affairs Committee. He previously served as the chair of the House Health and Human Services Committee. In August 2016, Paul LePage, the governor of Maine, left an "obscene, threatening"[1] voicemail for Gattine in which he accused Gattine of calling him racist.[2] LePage later stated that he wished he could challenge Gattine to a duel.[3]
