"The Right to Choose is a bottom-line issue for me. I will not compromise on women’s reproductive freedom. Losing the protection of Roe v Wade is deeply problematic. I am committed to ongoing state Legislative action because of the loss of federal protections. I experienced life before legal abortion access and have clear memories of the threat to lives that resulted. I strongly support access to all types of birth control, including over-the-counter distribution."

"Maine faces daunting challenges from the changing climate. As a legislator, I have long supported Incentives for renewable energy and energy conservation. But we must do more to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. As our school fleets are replaced, I support switching to electric power, lowering operating costs and asthma-inducing emissions along with reducing carbon emissions. We must also strengthen our community infrastructure, including roads, bridges, powerlines, and fishing wharves, to withstand increasingly frequent, fierce storms."
