Shay, 26, holds a sign asking for money to help feed her four kids on West Commercial Street in Portland. She has two sets of twins, 1-year-old boys and 5-year-old girls. &quotI pay my rent with the money that I make from my part-time job [at a Wendy's]. I come out here to make the rest for food. I hate being out here,&quot she said. &quotMy daughter got sick [with bacterial meningitis], I lost one of my part-time jobs, and LePage cut me off. Boom, boom, boom. I don'€™t get food stamps, but I get MaineCare for my children. I did not collect unemployment because I'm stronger than that. €œI a€™m part of the 66 percent of women who have been cut off by LePage. For him, I say, 'You suck.' I work hard, and I have always worked hard. I'€™m only 26 years old. And that's not cool.&quot€
