I am writing to endorse Julie McCabe as she runs to represent Lewiston in the state House District 93.

It takes a certain kind of leader and person to step up during difficult times in our community and raise their hand and want to serve in a greater capacity. Julie is one of those people.

In times of division and hardship, she is a relationship builder. As a teacher, she mentors and advocates for those who struggle in our complex educational system. As a parent, she works to set an example of kindness and fairness for her kids. As a neighbor, she is the kind of person who is always in touch and responsive when it matters most.

Her intelligence, thoughtfulness and optimism are exactly what we need more of in Lewiston.

I hope people join me in supporting her journey to the state Legislature by voting on Nov. 5.

Sarah Gillespie, Lewiston
