Together, we can address Lewiston’s priorities in Augusta
Steady leadership when it matters most.
Focused on a strong economy, safe communities, and policies that work.
I’m running because I’ve seen what happens when leadership shows up — and what it costs when it doesn’t. Lewiston needs a steady, trusted voice in Augusta focused on results, accountability, and the people who live and work here.
Shanna’s Priorities
Making Life More Affordable
People who work hard should be able to afford the basics and build a stable future.
Safe Housing, Strong Neighborhoods
Everyone deserves a safe, healthy place to live — and neighborhoods should be places where families can thrive.
Protecting Personal Healthcare Decisions
Healthcare works best when people can get the care they need, when they need it — without politics or bureaucracy standing in the way.
Community Safety & Stability
Safety requires leadership that addresses violence, supports people in crisis, and helps communities regain stability.
Healthcare You Can Access and Afford
Healthcare should be accessible, affordable, and centered on trust between people and their doctors.
Supporting Small Businesses & Jobs
Strong local businesses mean good jobs, resilient communities, and an economy that works close to home.
