Two years ago, a young man knocked on my door and wanted to talk about the problems Mainers face. He introduced himself as Eric Brakey. We talked about 20 minutes and I knew this young man would work hard for his constituents. He delivered on every point that made life better for everyone. I cannot […]

Brakey an effective advocate
I thank Sen. Eric Brakey for his work in helping to secure state funds for a new high school in Auburn. Anyone who visits the current ELHS can see the students of Auburn urgently need new facilities. Watching countless school construction projects approved for others across the state, Auburn’s taxpayers have spent years patiently helping […]
Brakey understands what it takes
When it comes to attracting business and job creation to Maine, Sen. Eric Brakey understands what it takes. I have spent much of my professional life facilitating new businesses, so I have seen how difficult an environment Maine can be for developing economic opportunity. With some of the highest taxes in the nation and so […]
Brakey stays involved with folks
Anyone who has met Sen. Eric Brakey knows that he cares about the people of Maine and goes out of his way to stay involved with the folks in his district. There is an old saying, “Listen twice as much as you speak.” That is Brakey. I have had many conversations with Brakey and one […]
Espling the right woman for the job
Ellie Espling is running for re-election to the Maine House of Representatives, and I am proud to support her. Representing the people of New Gloucester and Poland together for the past two years, I see every day how hard she works for the people of our shared communities. As a fiscally responsible leader, she helped […]

Brakey listened to my concerns
I always appreciate representatives who care enough about their constituents to come knock on their doors and listen to them. Two years ago, when Eric Brakey first ran for state senate, I got that knock on my door. I appreciated him taking the time to hear my concerns about the high taxes and welfare abuse […]
Brakey supports job creation
Maine Sen. Eric Brakey is one of the few in Augusta truly fighting for the people. I was not happy when I heard that the Maine Legislature wanted to create a multi-million dollar, corporate loan program for out-of-state businesses. Guess who would be paying the bill for this new corporate welfare program? Maine’s taxpayers. Sen. […]
Brakey makes Maine a better place
When it comes to supporting economic development for the Lewiston-Auburn community, Sen. Eric Brakey is a tireless advocate for residents. It is no secret that Maine has its challenges. Maine is one of the highest taxed states in the nation and that has made it difficult to attract job creators here. With leaders such as […]
Brakey supports local control
My family is supporting Sen. Eric Brakey for re-election in the upcoming November 2016 election. Brakey understands that parents and teachers are best equipped to make decisions on a child’s education. Unfortunately, more and more I see state and federal bureaucrats sticking their noses in children’s education, taking control away from the people who know […]
