Franco-Americans' concern for preservation of their French culture and language.
Many of Maine’s younger generation of Franco –Americans today don’t speak French and are out of touch with the traditions and language of their parents and grandparents. A legislative task force was established in 2011 to examine Maine's Franco-American population, focused largely on education, jobs and the economy as they pertain to Maine's Franco-Americans.
