Letter: Elect forward thinkers

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • October 23, 2020

Fortunately Maine has been outside the zones of climate-driven fire and flood that have struck the South and West. And it is clear, compared to most other parts of the country, how fortunate we have been to have a governor who has pursued a pandemic policy that can control local outbreaks and permit a safe and sensible return to social and economic normality. What is needed now is a shared vision at all levels of state government for the next two years to sustain public health, while addressing the energy, infrastructure, and economic problems that constrain Maine’s future. That calls for electing forward thinkers — Jan Collins to the state Senate, Tina Riley, Pete Bourgelais, Scott Landry, Greg Kimber and Savannah Sessions to the House. ~ Philip Keith, Farmington
