In the 125th Legislature, Senator Sherman served as a chairman of the Joint Standing Committees on Agriculture, Conservation and was a member of the Environment and Natural Resources Committee.

 

As a representative, Senator Sherman was the vice-chairman of the Rural Caucus, and served on the Criminal Justice and Public Safety; Agriculture, Conservation and Forestry; and Judiciary Committees, as well as the sub-committees on Elections, and Children and Families.

 

The Senator earned an undergraduate degree at Ricker College, a master's degree in chemistry from

the University of New Hampshire, and a juris doctorate from the University of Maine Law School.

 

As a beef farmer for 10 years, a science teacher for 29 years, and a lawyer for six years, he is fortunate to have accumulated a wide range of professional experience to draw from.
