PHILLIP RENCH FOR US SENATE CAMPAIGN
The former SpaceX engineer hoping to take Sen. Collins' seat says he has "zero association" with Elon Musk.
"I want to fix some of the structural issues that Mainers are facing," he said. "If you look at the amount of taxes we pay, property taxes, income taxes, Mainers face one of the highest tax burdens in the United States. That's been that way for decades. We need to actually take structural, concrete steps to fix those issues, so folks can actually graduate high school and afford to stay and build their lives here in Maine."
