Priority Issues:
My main focus will be putting Maine, all of Maine, back to work, to reform and improve Maine's tax structure for both individuals and businesses, to encourage investment into Maine's struggling economy and to move Maine forward once again by improving access to technology and the internet throughout Maine. One of the keys to accomplish Maine's economic prosperity is to reduce our dependence on high energy costs. Improving access to natural gas and Canadian hydro power need to be top priorities, wind and solar, although important, are just part of the mix.
