Earlier today, I sent this letter to the Sanford City Manager, Mayor and City Council. The letter is in response to their unanimous resolution urging the State Legislature and Governor to take action on various points surrounding public safety in Sanford.

Shocker! Mr. Sue Happy, Maine’s Attorney General has joined 22 other Democrat Attorneys General in suing the Trump administration. Democrats in the U.S. Senate refuse to vote to fund SNAP (food stamps) benefits.

They clearly haven’t accepted the results of the last election and feel entitled to tell the executive branch how to move money around within the executive branch.

Tell Senate Democrats to reopen the government!

I’m urging you to vote NO on Question 2.

The Maine Department of Public Safety and Maines largest police union all agree. Question 2 is dangerous and wrong for Maine.

My Op-Ed this week on Question 2. I’d urge you all to Vote NO on question 2.

My Op-Ed this week on Question 2. I’d urge you all to Vote NO on question 2.

This legislation isn’t about keeping Mainers safe. It’s about checking off a box for out-of-state gun control activists.

Remember this when your EBT Card gets shut off. Congressional Democrats are leveraging what little power they have (YOU) to get a political win. In this case over a TRILLION DOLLARS in healthcare subsidies that expired on the Democrat timeline they voted for!

Here is the spending on Question 1 (Voter ID). Here are a couple thoughts:

-This referendum does not remove absentee voting, so ignore the misleading group “Save Absentee Voting.”

-Why are the Democrat Governors Association and Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee spending so much money to make sure Mainers don’t have to show ID to vote? It’s almost as if they know secure elections will hurt their ability to hold onto power in Maine
