I support incumbent Eloise Vitelli for state Senate. Eloise was first elected in a special election in 2013 and is serving her second full term representing District 24, which comprises Sagadahoc County and the town of Dresden. She was elected by her peers to serve as majority leader in 2018. She continues to serve on the Marine Resources Committee. She has been a good and faithful senator, sponsoring bills that receive bipartisan support and benefit the people of Maine.
Here are two examples: She introduced bills to protect Maine student loan borrowers from predatory lending practices and to gather information so policymakers can better understand the scope, cause and contributing factors of this prescription drug crisis. Both were unanimously approved by the Maine Senate.
Eloise has supported local community events and is readily available for gatherings to discuss issues and concerns. These are but some of the reasons I encourage you to support Sen. Eloise Vitelli.
