I write to share with the Lewiston community my experience with Megan Parks. I have rarely met someone so passionately committed to their community. I met Megan at the beginning of the pandemic last year when we worked together to open an emergency shelter for the homeless community in Lewiston. What I learned about Megan […]

Carl Sheline is the community-minded, forward-thinker that Lewiston needs. He is a great listener who always takes the time to ask how business is going, and really hears the response. I have always appreciated his commitment to our community and his support of our local businesses. I believe the city of Lewiston would be in […]

As a former school committee member and as the city councilor who served as the school committee representative, I can say without any hesitation that Leigh Albert is very qualified to serve Ward 6 on the committee. She has dedicated her career to education and would pass that knowledge and dedication for the betterment of […]

Texas and Florida-based oil and gas companies NextEra, Calpine and Vistra purchased Question 1. Ninety-five percent of funding opposing the clean energy corridor comes from these companies. They invested millions into signature gathering efforts. Big oil and gas companies are using Mainers as pawns in their game of chess to keep polluting while protecting their […]

The Sun Journal’s Oct. 17 article, “‘Nightmare scenarios’: Emergency medical responders contend with vaccine mandates,” failed to point out the obvious.
