As an Augusta city councilor, I’m concerned about the revenue shortfalls Maine will be facing and the impacts that could have on our local municipal budgets. Important programs, including the homestead exemption, revenue sharing and general purpose aid to schools, all help keep property taxes down. We need legislators who will work hard to make sure we take a responsible approach to budgeting and will keep these property tax relief programs in place.

That’s why I’m voting for Sen. Matt Pouliot. He’s a business owner and knows the negative impact increased taxes would have on Mainers. Sen. Pouliot is a proven, responsible legislator who does his research and works hard. He’s the person I want working for us as our state deals with the upcoming budget shortfall.

Join me in voting for Matt Pouliot this fall, we need his trusted, experienced leadership at the state house now more than ever.
