When my husband and I decided to retire to Maine, we weren’t sure which town would be best for us. So we bought a small house in Rockland to try it out. As it turned out, our neighbor was Valli Geiger! We never expected that this choice would jump start what has become  the best move we ever made.

Valli and her husband welcomed us, introducing us to not only the neighbors, but to many in the community. We quickly made friends, found resources and places to put our energy here in town. 

Over the years, I have witnessed her dedication to Rockland, running for City Councilor, becoming Mayor and finally becoming a representative in the Maine State House of Representatives for District 1.

The position may change but the devotion remains the same. Be available to constituents to improve their quality of life. 

She has promoted programs designed to improve education, lower costs for seniors through the Medicare Savings Program, and advocated for a red flag law in Maine.  

She serves  on two key committees in the State House: the Labor and Housing Committee and the Energy, Utilities and Technology Committee. 

She remains available to answer questions and encourages constituents to voice their concerns. You may contact her via Valli.Geiger@legislature.maine.gov

I encourage you to engage with your candidates before Election Day on November 5.
