Dear Editor:

I first met Andrew last summer when I heard he was interested in running for 1st District Congress. We were impressed with him. It was great to meet someone young, smart, conservative and knowledgeable. Andrew decided to run.

Andrew is a graduate of Saint Anslem College in Manchester, New Hampshire. He studied government and history there. He is a  technology professional in the software industry. He also teaches part time in the South Portland schools.

Andrew lives in Cape Elizabeth with is wife Elizabeth and two lovely young daughters Taylor and Lucy. Elisabeth is working in marketing.They are a wonderful and happy family.

Our country and state are in need of Andrew Piantidosi to be in our Congress.Some of the things that Andrew wants for us is the following:

–Protecting our lobster, fishing and farming industries;

–Cleaner energy resources other than solar and wind;

–Rights to bear arms and keep arms;

–Parents to receive full disclosure of education curriculum;

–Safe, affordable living for seniors, veterans and young families;

–Stop all D.C. insider trading;

–Secure our borders

These are just some of the things that Andrew wants to work on in Congress. Andrew is ready to work on bringing our country justice and pride again. Please vote for Andrew Piantidoso for Congress on Tuesday, June 4.
