I have had the pleasure to recruit men and women who are exiting the military for jobs here in Maine. During the interview process, I realize how the military trains people to have conviction, passion and how to just get the job done.

When I heard about Army veteran Jason Levesque running for mayor of Auburn, I was curious if he still had those traits that I have seen in so many other veterans. After watching him speak and looking at his plans for a separate and successful city, I am happy to say he most certainly does.

I am excited and proud to support Jason Levesque as a candidate and, hopefully, Auburn’s next mayor.
