"For People, Planet & Peace ...from the state of Maine" feat. Lisa Savage

Lisa Savage is running for Senate in the state of Maine against Republican incumbent, Susan Collins. Lisa is long-time antiwar and environmental organizer, as well as being a public school teacher and a grandmother. Although she has been an active member of the Green Party, Lisa is running as an independent candidate due to restrictive ballot access laws in Maine. The state does, however, boast the advantage of having ranked choice voting, which gives independent candidates a better shot.

Lisa & I spoke on May 7th, 2020, and covered a lot of ground: COVID-19 relief (including her call for a People's Bail-Out), healthcare, agriculture, campaigning during a pandemic, the recently released documentary, "Planet of the Humans," the Green New Deal, and US militarism. If she wins, she will certainly be one of the most progressive people to ever serve in the US Senate.
