We are facing many issues here in Cape and in Maine, and the 2024 election year is a potentially historic one to bring meaningful change and progress. My background and experience will allow me to go back to work in Augusta, tackling challenges head-on and working towards positive outcomes. Issues like education, housing for all Mainers, protecting our kids with increased gun safety legislation, climate change and women's reproductive rights are all priority areas for action. By addressing these issues, we will contribute to the betterment of Cape Elizabeth and the state of Maine as a whole.
Experience:
Cape Elizabeth’s issues are Maine issues. I’m running for State Representative to strengthen Maine’s priorities in Augusta.
Fight extreme-right attacks on reproductive rights
and protect healthcare access for all Mainers
Our most important investment. Empower teachers with a livable wage. Provide innovative learning programs and excellent facilities to prepare Maine students for 21st-century jobs.
Take on the gun lobby to secure common sense gun
reforms, keeping Mainers safe from gun violence
Create jobs by attracting smart investment and supporting local businesses.
Make climate change a priority in all aspects to
support low-carbon growth. With the recent raging storms and damage, we must start doing a lot more to reverse the effects of climate change here in Cape Elizabeth and throughout Maine.
Whether it's affordable housing, healthcare, homelessness, tax fairness, women's rights, and the right to protect kids with increased gun safety, all Mainers should be treated fairly.
As the former four-term State Representative, during an extremely divisive government, Kim has the key attributes for getting things done.
With over 30 years of professional and public service experience, Kim has the real and relevant experience to take on this task and represent Cape Elizabeth and Maine. Public Service has been a major purpose in my life. In my return to Augusta, I will use my experience to tackle challenges head-on and work towards positive outcomes on issues like education, housing for all Mainers, child-focused gun safety legislation, climate change, and women’s reproductive rights.
Kim's past work on two Legislative Committees (Legal Affairs, Workforce & Economic Future) is sure to play a role in Maine's recovery. With her experience working on Capitol Hill, in global trade exhibitions and Maine's Tourism industry, including Adjunct Professor in Tourism & Hospitality at USM, she will make a strong contribution to these committees in hopes of returning as a member.
Kim possesses a strong knowledge of Maine's business community, its politics and history. She has a reputation for her calm and approachable manner.
