Top Three Priorities
(1) Public Safety. Fix our youth justice system by closing loopholes, fully support law enforcement and help get our streets safe again. (2) Lower Costs & Cut Waste. Stop the tax hikes, control state spending and clean up the fraud. (3) Education. I’d like to cut back unfunded mandates that drag down our schools, drive up local tax bills and take focus away from real academic success in this city.
Why are you running?
I’m running because I love this city and I care deeply about cleaning it up. I’ve heard from too many residents who don’t feel like our current “leaders” are representing them. I want to be a voice for you! I will put Lewiston’s real challenges ahead of party politics and make sure Augusta is finally paying attention to our city!
What is one way Maine is on the right track? What is one way the state is on the wrong track?
One thing Maine is doing right is making community college more accessible for Maine high school graduates. One thing it is doing wrong is allowing our taxpayer funded tuition benefits to extend nationwide. Maine graduates should come first. If elected, I will work to make sure this program is focused on recent Maine graduates and helps build Maine’s future workforce.
As one of several dozen legislators in your chamber, how would you make a measurable difference for your constituents?
I may be one vote, but I will not be a silent one. Our current representative in HD94 is meek. Lewiston needs me because I will force Augusta to confront what’s happening here. I will fight for real accountability with youth violence, public safety and taxpayer spending. I will make sure the residents in Lewiston finally feel heard.
Surveys show the economy is the top concern of voters. What is a specific proposal addressing Maine voters’ economic anxieties that you’d work to make law?
I hear the economic anxiety at the doors, however, in HD94, residents are telling me their biggest pressures are property taxes and juvenile violence. I would fight to stop shifting more costs onto homeowners and demand accountability for state spending. I would also strengthen consequences for youth gun and repeat offenses. Safe neighborhoods in Lewiston are essential to building a strong local economy.
