What are the greatest challenges currently facing Maine?
Affordability and the overall cost of living. My priorities are to help lower the cost of living by cutting taxes for low- and middle-income Mainers and by funding efforts to make housing, healthcare and childcare more affordable; and to direct more funding to Lewiston’s public schools and after-school programs to keep our kids safe and supported.
People shouldn’t have to struggle to pay their rent, afford childcare and fill their cupboard or their gas tank. We need representatives who know the value of hard work and how hard it can be to get ahead when times are tough. That’s what makes me want to continue serving Lewiston in the State House.
What unique problems in your district do you want to address in the legislature?
Lewiston has seen some recent upticks in gun violence, especially among youth. I will continue to push for common-sense solutions to reduce violence and keep guns out of the hands of young people.
What do you want voters to know about you?
I’m a lifelong Mainer who grew up on a dairy farm in central Maine and graduated from college in Farmington. Since moving to Lewiston in 2017, I’ve served on many committees: Housing, Ad Hoc Shelter, Transit, Public Art, as City Council President, and as the Council representative to the School Committee.
I show up for the people I serve, in every vote, every committee meeting, and any time my constituents need someone to advocate for them. I don’t support or oppose a bill based on which party supports it - I vote based on what my neighbors tell me they need. Every vote I take reflects the conversations I have with the people I serve and the needs and challenges they share with me. That’s what makes a difference for the people of Lewiston.
