In the upcoming election it’s essential that we elect candidates who are on the side of working people, seniors, children, and our young people trying to get a foothold in this economy.

Sen. John Cleveland’s record in the Senate demonstrates that he is committed to representing the interests of the people of the 15th District.

We must return him to the Senate to ensure that needed progress is made on the real issues that impact all of us: extending health care and the right to health care to all Mainers, restoring funding to education and other vital human services, addressing economic inequality, and protecting our environment from those who would ravage it for the sake of quick profits.

This is not a time to put all our futures at risk by electing an inexperienced candidate. This is a time to work for real progress in our state by reelecting John.
