Q&A

Define what “success” would look like if you are elected to serve your district.
My success in the Maine Senate will mean restoring the freedoms and paychecks of Maine people, which have been eroded by government-induced inflation, high taxes, and unconstitutional executive mandates.

Characterize your view on public access to governmental business.
Laws by public legislation, not executive mandate.
