Dear Friend,

From my family to yours, we wish you the happiest of holiday seasons. 
 
As we look forward to 2022 and a new Legislative session that starts in early January, I want you to know that I have been working hard to be a voice for House District 66. Please feel welcome and comfortable reaching out to me with your thoughts and concerns.
 
This season has always been a time of coming together to support those in need. But one of the many reasons I am proud to live in the lakes region is that people in our community look out for one another no matter the time of year. From donating to food pantries to regularly checking in on neighbors who are housebound, we have each other's backs 12 months a year.
 
In the spirit of the holidays and as the weather is getting colder, now is a critical time to go a step further to support others in our community. Below are resources available to help Mainers pay for heating, receive COVID-19 booster shots and access affordable health care. You can help ensure eligible Mainers access these services by sharing this information with your friends, family and community networks.
It is an honor and a privilege to serve you. Wishing you all the peace and light that comes with the season,

Be well,

Jess Fay
Serving District 66
