Do we really need the bully in the pulpit again? Haven’t we heard enough of that gravelly voice spitting out nasty barbs at those who may disagree with his archaic ideas? Being an adult, Gov. Janet Mills has taken the high road and is refusing to attack her opponents; her accomplishments speak for themselves. There’s […]

Peggy Rotundo is a stellar candidate to represent Lewiston in the Maine Senate. It is beyond difficult to find people to put in the countless hours needed to both campaign and then do the job they are elected to do. But, as she has done all her life, Peggy has again stepped up. Her many […]

I graduated high school in 1973, the year that Roe v. Wade was codified into law. Hence, I and young women for the past 50 years have grown up with access to reproductive care. The concept of bodily autonomy was a given until a 2022 Supreme Court ruling struck down Roe v. Wade. What followed […]

I am supporting Mary-Beth Taylor for the Maine House District 87, representing Mechanic Falls and Poland. Mary-Beth has served Poland well for four years on the Board of Selectpersons. She has been a fine leader who shows respect and consideration for all. I hope all the voters of Mechanic Falls and Poland to join me […]

Norm Gellatly’s recent letter in these pages (“Could the DOJ put Trump out of commission?,” Aug. 13) seems to me to be unworthy of publication in the Sun Journal or any other legitimate news source. It is a ubiquitous list of insults and personal attacks against Donald Trump, the like of which we can all […]

Building a larger, stronger workforce has been a longtime priority to ensure Maine’s economic success. It has never been more important than today, as we face a tightening labor pool. Innovation needs to take center stage in directing the jobs of the future. While many job training and career pathways exist, it is exciting that […]

Adam Lee’s well-rounded experience shows he is exactly what Augusta needs right now. Running to represent House District 89 (downtown Auburn), he is intelligent, resolute and dependable in his professional and private life. Adam’s practice includes criminal and general civil litigation matters, municipal employment contracts and probate issues. He has successfully argued cases before the […]

Like many, we’ve watched prices rise — everything goes up out-of-sight, failed policies are continued, and nothing changes. Some legislators don’t listen, others don’t care. This November, let’s elect common sense legislators and reverse course. If positive change is […]
