Fay of Raymond announces candidacy for House District 66


RAYMOND - Jessica Fay of Raymond announces her candidacy for State Representative in Maine House District 66, parts of Casco, Poland and Raymond.

Fay’s priorities include economic growth through small business development and property tax relief. Fay is also deeply committed to protecting our forests, lakes, streams and farms, recognizing these are among Maine’s most valuable assets.

“I have spent the last 15 years listening to my customers talk about what’s important to them” Fay said. “Most people are frustrated, and recognize that government can’t function at the extremes. I will work to bring a balanced, creative perspective to Augusta. It is imperative that public policy supports the ability for Maine businesses to thrive, where entrepreneurs can let good ideas flourish. Mainers need to have the tools to create the good paying jobs our community needs, and a workforce educated to fill those jobs.”

Fay is owner of Raymond Village Florist and Maine Lakes Wedding and Event Florist. She has served as a trustee and volunteer at the Raymond Village Library. Fay is also a volunteer with the Pleasant Mountain Ski Club’s Ski program at Songo Locks School, is a participant in Raymond’s Revitalization Committee, and a member of the Sebago Lakes Region Chamber of Commerce.

"I know Jess to be a respected business owner and volunteer who cares deeply about her community,” said Sen. Bill Diamond. “She will bring all these experiences with her to the legislature and will represent the district well. 

"Jess is thoughtful and reasonable and will definitely work with anyone to resolve the issues that concern us all. She follows through when action is called for,” said Col. Bob Akins USMC, Ret.
Fay is a graduate of Simmons College in Boston with a B.A. in Sociology. She lives in Raymond with her husband Kevin and Labrador Retrievers Cooper, Murphy, Lowell and Ellis.
