Fall Reception 2023

The Sagadahoc Democrats are doing something different this fall--an early evening reception in Long Reach Hall at the Maine Maritime Museum, 243 Washington Street in Bath.

Please join us from 5:00 to 7:00 p.m. for delicious, hearty appetizers and desserts. We'll have a cash bar, but water and non-alcoholic drinks will be free.

Sen. Mattie Daughtry, Maine's Assistant Majority Leader, will be our keynote speaker. Sen. Daughtry was a driving force behind the recent passage of Maine's Paid Family and Medical Leave Act, which will provide eligible employees with up to 12 weeks of paid leave for family and health events. PFML will ensure that Maine workers can provide essential care to their loved ones with losing their income or jobs. 

Sen. Daughtry, who represents nearby Senate District 23, will discuss the PFML and its implementation, the benefits for Maine people and our communities, and Maine's journey to becoming only the 13th state in the union to pass this important legislation.

We also will hear legislative highlights from Sen. Eloise Vitelli, Rep. Allison Hepler, and Rep. Becky Jauch. Our Democratic legislators played a vital role in passing bills that support Sagadahoc families, our economy, and the environment.

The Southern Maine String Duo will make a return appearance, performing several classical pieces during the social hour.

Your sponsorship or individual ticket to the Fall Reception supports events, canvasses, and other activities that engage Sagadahoc voters of all ages.
