There’s so much progress left to make, and Portland needs a strong partner like Gov Mills in Augusta #mepolitics
We have accomplished so much, but, today, I’m announcing that I’m running for reelection because there is so much left to do. It’s time to invest in you, the people of Maine. You are what moves us forward, what makes us strong.

Republicans (including our Senator #2) spent 4 years *talking* about Infrastructure. It took President Biden and Democrats leading the House & Senate to actually get it done. & it means millions $$ invested in Maine’s roads, bridges, and ports That’s something 2 b thankful 4

Congratulations to @MarcquesHouston and @RyanLizanecz on being elected to Portland's Charter Commission. Both received the endorsement of the Portland Democratic City Committee and "get out the vote" canvassing support from our volunteers.
