Dear Editor,
In
November we have an opportunity to add a new face to Windham Town Council. I am
supporting Rebecca Cummings for East District Representative (all
Windham voters can vote for district candidates).
Rebecca
grew up in Maine. She was raised in a Portland home where her Dad and uncle
grew up and where her grandfather still resides. She entered the Army two weeks
after graduating from Deering High School and she served as a medic in Germany,
where she met her husband and became an Army wife for his 22 years of military
service.
After
his retirement from the military, she and her family chose Windham, where her
parents live, to finish raising their sons in the state she loves and considers
their “forever home”.
Rebecca
has been a young wife and mother on a fixed income through many regular military
and wartime deployments. She earned her nursing degree while raising a young family
and now works as a school nurse.
She
is someone who will respect taxpayer dollars and evaluate spending in a
thorough and careful way. As a nurse, she makes important decisions on
evidence-based data. You can depend on her to research issues, weigh facts and
seek out voter feedback.
She
has considerable concern for low and fixed income families who, when taxes are
raised, need to make serious choices about what necessities need to be cut from
their already tight family budgets.
It
is time for some new insights and a new listening ear on the Windham Town
Council.
Rebecca
Cummings has already knocked on nearly 300 doors hoping to hear your concerns
and let you get to know her. She plans to continue to do this through voting
day. Check out her Facebook page or e-mail her at greg_becca_2000@yahoo.com with your thoughts and ideas. Then cast your ballot for Rebecca Cummings on
voting day in November!
