I am supporting Erin Herbig for state senator. In a time of polarized politics, Erin stands for bipartisanship, understands the economic needs of our community, and is an intelligent, effective legislator.
I have been particularly impressed with her ability to connect with diverse groups of constituents in my community. Erin is a trail-blazing working mom who understands what women like myself face, working and raising kids, sometimes on a single income. She also easily connects with my college age sons who are concerned about expanding the economic opportunities in Maine.
I have spent my working life as a teacher, and I want to see a thriving community with students who have health care, fair educational funding, a clean environment, enough to eat, and parents with jobs. Erin Herbig’s vision and proven capabilities are what we need in Maine’s Senate.
