To the Editor:
To all my friends and neighbors in Maine House District 116, a very sincere “thank you.”
I asked you for a fourth and final House term, and you resoundingly showed your approval of my work.
I have spent six years listening to your ideas and fighting hard to bring our blended viewpoints to Augusta. Our collective families mean everything to me. Every constituent I serve…Republican, small party, independent, or Democrat…is part of my extended family. I know we are all in this together, and I believe we all want what is best for Maine. We may differ on policy, but we are all striving for a positive result.
I promise that during my last two years of service, I will strive to bring honest improvements to the state we love. I also promise to always act in ways that bring honor to myself, to all of you, and to the God we all serve.
Thank you, my friends. I really appreciate your support.
Representative Richard “Dick” Pickett
House District 116
Canton, Dixfield, Hartford, Mexico & Peru
