Many politicians “talk the talk.” Sen. John Patrick also “walks the walk.” He supports Maine’s students with his words and with his actions.

As a school librarian, I have invited many local officials to visit my school and to read to students. Sen. Patrick has accepted the invitation multiple times. He takes the time to work with students. He invited our students to visit the State House to see state government in action. Several students enjoyed participating as pages.

I hope others will join me in support of state Sen. John Patrick in his bid for re-election this November.
