Nate Libby
N. Madore: Constructive leadership
I received a misleading mailer from the Maine Republican Party completely distorting Nate Libby’s record. First, Libby does not support welfare fraud and it is a silly assertion to believe anyone supports fraud. Libby supports increased fraud investigation and enforcement, tougher penalties for those committing welfare fraud, and does not support EBT card abuse. Second, […]
Lewiston state Senate candidate says mailers misrepresent his voting record
LEWISTON — A Democratic candidate for the state Senate says his voting record on welfare reform is being misrepresented by the Maine Republican Party.

J. Myrand: Raising the minimum wage
I am supporting Nate Libby for the state Senate and Heidi Brooks for the state House because they support raising the minimum wage. Today’s minimum wage is not a livable wage.

D. Projansky: A proven passion for the city
Being a city councilor is a tough job, since every action and word is scrutinized. City Councilor Nate Libby shines through as a fierce advocate for Lewiston, having passed a municipal budget for 2013 that did not increase the property tax rate while maintaining city services, despite serious cuts from the federal and state governments. […]
