I support Bruce Bickford, candidate for the Maine House of Representatives, District 70. His straightforward policy discussions support the demand by citizens for transparent government.

As a two-term Auburn City Councilor, he was instrumental in addressing citizen concerns and reducing property taxes while other municipalities increased taxes.

I believe he is in direct contact with the people and he is listening to the people.

According to the Androscoggin County Chamber of Commerce’s Election Monitoring Report, his opponent, Penthea Burns of Lewiston, answered “no” when asked if she thought government spending in Maine was too high.
