I support Matt Dunlap for the U.S. Senate.

As a former chairman of the Inland, Fisheries and Wildlife Committee in the state Legislature, he understands that Maine has much to offer for quality of life.

As the former secretary of state, he understands the needs of the people who have to travel to get to work and to support their families.

He earned a reputation for standing up for hard-working Mainers, even when it meant going against the political wind. In the U.S. Senate, he will always fight for us and stand up to the special interest groups.

He is a family man. He understands what Mainers need to make a decent living.

Matt Dunlap will help expand opportunities for Mainers, oppose harmful cuts to Social Security and Medicare, and protect our biggest asset, our environment.
