You going to be fighting the capitalist that print and distribute that shit and free speech laws. The not so secret part of our politics is how much money media in general makes off them, it's a racket in itself at this point that probably isn't going anywhere anytime soon.

So don’t attack the act of doing but the act of producing said items. Legislate rules that the materials must be made in Maine. The material must be burnable, recyclable, and reusable. Mailers must be mailed from within the state to primary residences.

If anything goes these damned things would be printed on styrofoam boards. Legislation that is sounds good or is a net benefit for the state is more likely to pass and become law.

I agree, they nothing but extra fire starter to me anyway, but if you made that play you would run afoul of the commerce clause. Your best bet would be charge them a fee to put out the signs you don't want, like a dime per shitty styrofoam sigh or something.
