Maine Gov. Paul LePage said Thursday he is ready to use the “full extent of his authority” to rein in a 33-year-old nurse who worked with Ebola patients in West Africa but balked at a deal that would prevent her from entering public spaces.
The Republican, who is up for re-election Tuesday, said state attorneys tried to work with Kaci Hickox, of Fort Kent, but those negotiations “have failed.”
