Georgetown, Southport and Westport Island and the mainland coastal
communities of Boothbay and Boothbay Harbor.

His commitment to public service includes three terms as a member
of the school committee and board of selectman in Reading, Massachusetts.
In Boothbay, he was a selectman for one term.
Representative MacDonald’s interests include health insurance
reform; energy conservation and development of alternative energy
sources; tax reform; and development of the community college
system and affordable higher education opportunities.
He has recently served on both the Presiding Officers’ Heat
and Energy Emergency Task Force and the Wind Power Task Force
and will continue to work towards energy independence for Maine
and innovative, long-term efforts to create energy security for
Mainers.

Issues
Serving on Marine Resources will give me the opportunity to
better represent the concerns of my district of four islands
and a peninsula, all with historical and present-day
working connections to the ocean.
Our committee work will be essential to ensuring a viable and
sustainable yield of fish, lobster and other organisms from the
ocean. We will work toward a balance that will be good for our
marine environment, good for our local maritime economy, and
good for the economy of the state of Maine.
