Top three priorities if elected:

Top three priorities if elected:

? Reducing Maine’s high tax burden for working families and retirees. We are among the highest-taxed people in the country. I want to change that statistic.

? Spending in Maine is growing too fast. I want to control government spending by prioritizing and allocating the funds where they are truly needed. We can control the spending without cutting services.

? Supporting local research and development that will help create higher-paying jobs to keep Maine youth in the state. We need to reverse the out-migration of our young people.
