I want to bring balance to Augusta. As a 4th generation Mainer I have always believed in being of service to others, supporting my neighbors, and doing work that makes our communities stronger. Over the years I have watched the landscape of Maine change. A once thriving state is now at the bottom of all substantial rankings. I am running because I believe in Maine. I believe in strengthening what works, fixing what doesn’t, and always putting the people of Maine first.

Leo's Approach

• Lower Energy Costs - Today, too many Maine families are facing heating season with fear. I will work to help build an energy system that's reliable, affordable, and built for the future ---- without losing sight of the realities people face right now. Maine’s average residential ENERGY costs increased by a staggering 36.3 percent in just one year, from May 2024 to May 2025.

• Move Education Rankings from the Bottom: I want to make sure every student in Maine has a real chance to succeed and will work to restore Maine’s ranking – In the 1990’s Maine was ranked Top 5 in the Country, today Maine is ranked in the Bottom 5.

• Fix Healthcare in Maine: I have seen up close how much people rely on their local clinics and hospitals—and how stressful it is when care is too far away, too expensive, or too hard to access. I’m committed to strengthening rural healthcare, improving mental health services, and ensuring that the State is paying its bills. Maine HEALTHCARE is ranked at the bottom in the country with hospitals shutting down and people unable to get care. 

• Lower Taxes:  Work to keep taxes reasonable and ensure that every dollar spent actually makes life better for Maine people, not out-of-state businesses. Maine has one of the highest TAX BURDENS in the country.
