- How this page stays honest
- maine.gov, legislature.maine.gov, and fna.usda.gov all returned clean HTTP 200 to direct fetches with no bot-detection wall. The only complications this pack found were (1) two attempted WebFetch calls to fna.usda.gov policy-memo pages (waiver-termination, waiver-reinstatement) that timed out — resolved by reading the ABAWD Waivers FY2025-2029 index page directly instead, which contained the needed Maine-specific waiver-response date without requiring those two memo pages, and (2) Maine's own SNAP Rule #244 Rule Pages PDF being a tracked-changes/redline document whose FFY-history rows partially overlap in pdftotext extraction for Charts 1-4 (old and new figures visually merged) — resolved by cross-checking every FFY2026 figure this pack cites against either a clean, non-overlapping row in the same table or Maine's live consumer page, and disclosing the one figure (Standard Deduction, household size 4) that could not be fully reconciled this way.
