Denise Tepler and I met working together on a committee urging the local government to adopt the Cool Communities initiative. Our committee was successful in convincing Topsham to commit to practices that reduce carbon emissions over a period of years thus becoming a “green” community. It was so valuable having Denise on our committee, as she was and is a wealth of information about how government runs, she is fair and even tempered, and she is passionate about her community and its resources.

Since that time I have come to deeply respect Denise’s unfailing commitment to serving the community, through Big Brothers Big Sisters, United Way, Sagadahoc Democrats, Emerge Maine and the Topsham school board. Denise is a huge supporter of local farmers and the local food movement, a champion for middle class families, an experienced and committed advocate for strengthening our public schools, and a supporter of investing in small businesses and job growth. Topsham couldn’t ask for a better representative. I will be voting for Denise Tepler this November, I hope you will join me!
