One of Maine's greatest challenges is how we will prepare for and deal with climate change -
I will encourage the towns in District 17 to look closely at their online presence - Updated, entertaining and informative websites and social media pages will help citizens stay informed and becoming involved -
I would like to see more public/private partnerships engaged in developing affordable housing financed with TIFs.
I served as House Chair of the taxation committee during my prior terms - I would like to see if Maine can finally balance its income and sales taxes to raise needed revenue in a more equitable manner.
