About Cameron Reny
Cameron understands the challenges of working people and families.
Cameron Reny grew up in a working-class family in Bristol. Her parents worked a variety of jobs to pay the bills, and she learned early the value of hard work.
Now raising two young children here in Lincoln County, she feels stronger than ever that it is our responsibility to preserve a sustainable future for all Mainers to thrive.
Cameron always knew she wanted to leave the world better than she found it.
That’s what first drew here to school counseling as a career, and later to serve you in the Maine State Senate.
Through her experience as an educator, senator, community advocate, union member, and leader of professional associations, Cameron has worked at local, school, district, and state-wide levels to solve problems, support equitable policies, and advocate for children, families, and working people.
WHY I’M RUNNING FOR RE-ELECTION
“There has already been positive movement to address issues important to our district, like housing, climate resiliency and affordable healthcare. I want to see that work continue. I am proud of the progress made by working together. I’ve made so many good connections and working relationships over the past year with colleagues and constituents from both sides of the aisle, and it helps to get things done.
My goal is strong communities and a good, sustainable future for our children and grandchildren.” –Cameron Reny
