As we close in on the final stretch of the campaign, we are proud of the tremendous support we have from across the state, but Janet will continue to work hard every day to earn the trust and votes of Maine people.
In her first term, Janet brought togeher Democrats, Republicand and Independents to strengthen our economy, expand access to health care, deliver $850. in inflation relief, invest in public education and preserve our lands and waters. But she knows there is more work left to do. From helping with high costs to addressing our workforce shortage and our lack of child care, housing and broadband, Janet is determined to tackle our challenges, to build on the progress that has been made and to move Maine forward. She won’t stop fighting to improve our lives and livelihoods of Maine people.”
