Will Maine's Governor Sign a Bill Banning LGBTQ Conversion Therapy?

Metro Weekly reports:

State lawmakers in Maine have approved a bill to ban the practice of conversion therapy on minors, but Gov. Paul LePage has not indicated whether he intends to sign it into law.

LePage, a Republican, has amassed a record that many LGBTQ groups characterize as hostile during his two terms in office. But he has not taken a position on this particular bill, which passed the Democratic-led House of Representatives by an 80-55 margin and the Republican-controlled Senate on a 19-12 vote.

If LePage decides to veto the bill, neither margin is sufficient to overturn a veto.

The bill would prohibit licensed therapists and counselors from attempting to administer therapies aimed at changing a young person’s sexual orientation or gender identity. If they break the law, they could face penalties or risk the loss of their license.

How can I explain this Miracle in my life

to my Mother from Romania,suffering from Mucinous Adino Carcinoma Stage 4 Cancer. She was in very critical stage unable to take any food and sustaining the life with dripping.She also suffering from heavy vomiting and fluid build up on both legs. Health condition is very bad and always need the help of some one.
We tried so many ways and and could not apply any solid food or medicine to her cure.
I had to search for several ways of seeing my mother get cured believing God, and his power.
I had about Herbal Cures from Dr. Odey Abang, the herbalist who helped a friend of mine got cure a year ago from Herpes.
I had to search if I could get my mother cure from the Mucinous Adino Carcinoma Stage 4 Cancer, then I saw comments of testimonies of patients getting cured with Herbal medicines
I wish to immediately I saw a lady from Italy who got cure with HIV/AIDS from the herbalist i was referred to at the initial time for my mother cure.
I felt I should blame myself not to have confident enough to trust my friend, knowing fully well she had been confirmed HSV negative.
I thought It was late,and invited my friend to come help me discuss with him if I'm to take my mother for the cure in his home.
The risk of stressing my mother travelling down there, I showed him all the test results and how she feels about it.
He told me to follow up the instructions and apply the medicine to her accordingly.
To my greatest surprise I received the medicine and apply as instructed and before she could finish her first bottle of the liquid form, I was very excited telling the doctor she is recovering, her cure was confirmed after 48 days of applying the medicine and now strong and healthy, love you mum and special regards to Dr.Odey Abang for your cures to my friend and Mum
