AUGUSTA — Sens. Eloise Vitelli, DArrowsic, and Brownie Carson, D-Harpswell, were inaugurated to the Maine Senate during a swearing-in ceremony held Wednesday at the State House in Augusta.
“It is an honor and a privilege to serve the people of Sagadahoc County and Dresden,” Vitelli said. “I look forward to working with my colleagues to strengthen Maine’s workforce, fully fund education, and push for low-cost, alternative energy.”
Vitelli is beginning her second term in the Maine Senate, having previously served during the 126th Maine Legislature from 2013 to 2014.
Carson is serving his first term in the Maine Senate. He was previously the Executive Director for the Natural Resources Council of Maine, a position he held for 27 years.
We have a lot of work to do to protect Maine’s environment, lower property taxes and bring good paying jobs to our state,” said Carson.
