Who are you? Tell us about yourself.

The Supreme Court has just set the clock back 50 years. Every election at the state level is now extremely vital to elect candidates who will protect a women's right to choose. Do your research. As State Senator I will protect a women's right to choose. Clarence Thomas also made it clear that LGBTQ+ rights are next. Civil rights are on the ballot this year. We need to send a message loud and clear that this will not be allowed in Maine and across the nation.

Please list below 3 key messages of your campaign. What are the main points you want voters to remember about your goals for your time in office?

• Protect Women's Rights
• Protect LGBTQ+ Rights
• Ensure a Brighter Future

What areas of public policy are you personally passionate about?

Civil rights are on the ballot this year. We need to make sure we protect everyone's liberty in Maine. I will fight to protect women's rights and LGBTQ+ rights.

Note: Ballotpedia reserves the right to edit Candidate Connection survey responses. Any edits made by Ballotpedia will be clearly marked with [brackets] for the public. If the candidate disagrees with an edit, he or she may request the full removal of the survey response from Ballotpedia.org. Ballotpedia does not edit or correct typographical errors unless the candidate's campaign requests it.
