A group of Maine legislators sent a letter Monday to U.S. Attorney General William Barr asking for an investigation into Gov. Janet Mills (D) concerning her multiple executive orders issued during the coronavirus pandemic, saying she "has exceeded her executive authority."

According to Breitbart News, the group, comprised entirely of Republicans, thanked Barr for his directive to the Department of Justice in April telling all U.S. attorneys to be watchful of coronavirus restrictions that may violate the rights of American citizens.

They lawmakers also expressed their concern over Mills and her numerous orders that they believe violate the state and U.S. Constitutions:

We fully recognize the many unknowns that existed just over a month ago and the need for reasonable executive action in the face of a potentially devastating public health emergency. However, we are deeply concerned that Governor Mills has exceeded her executive authority in violation of both the Maine and United States Constitutions and continues to implement similar policies without authority or justifiable cause.
