Mackey Andrews is a problem solver

To the Editor;
Sue Mackey Andrews has a keen ability to listen to people. She connects with people from all walks of life, of all ages, and of many opinions. As a senator for District 4, Piscataquis County, Sue will listen to the stories of local folks and take them to Augusta where educating and feeding healthy children and grandchildren are to be promoted for making policies.

I’m proud to have worked with Sue on the formation of the Maine Resilience Building Network in 2012, through which she has worked tirelessly to teach Mainers about the long-term impacts of early childhood experiences. Further, she has worked equally, if not even more so, to educate about the importance of building resilience while teaching by example.

Sue works in her own backyard to find ways to support her neighbors by bringing a meal, finding funds to support education, and connecting people to local groups and other neighbors for a helping hand. She is politically active and understands the political process. She is a problem solver and has the knowledge and experience to lead District 4 in Augusta.
