Why PFFMaine Supports Mike Scott for Maine’s District 20 Senate Seat

Augusta, ME — The Professional Firefighters of Maine (PFFMaine) proudly endorses Mike Scott for Maine’s State Senate in District 20. As a dedicated leader in the fire and emergency services community, Mike exemplifies the qualities Maine needs in its leadership—steadfast commitment, proven advocacy, and a genuine desire to serve his community.

Mike Scott’s 30-year career as a firefighter in Auburn is a testament to his dedication and leadership. Rising through the ranks to become Battalion Chief, he has demonstrated resilience, integrity, and a deep commitment to protecting and serving the citizens of Auburn. His frontline experience gives him a unique perspective on the challenges faced by first responders and working families across Maine.

Beyond his service on the fire ground, Scott has been a tireless advocate for labor rights and community welfare. His leadership within the Auburn Professional Firefighters Association, IAFF Local 797, has been instrumental in advocating for fair wages, better benefits, and improved working conditions for first responders. His active involvement in the Professional Fire Fighters of Maine, including serving as the organization’s 3rd District Vice President and now as its President, underscores his dedication to strengthening labor protections and ensuring that first responders have the resources they need to serve effectively.

Scott’s influence has extended beyond the fire station and union halls. He has played a pivotal role in shaping Maine’s labor landscape by lobbying in Augusta and Washington, D.C., for policies that enhance working conditions, promote fair wages, and support Maine’s working families. His pragmatic approach—focused on collaboration and problem-solving rather than conflict—has earned him respect across political lines and among community leaders.

As a family man, Scott embodies the values of hard work, community, and service. He is a proud husband and father, committed to providing a stable and supportive environment for his loved ones. His family is his foundation, and their support fuels his dedication to making Maine a better place for all families.

Scott’s children and wife are his greatest motivation, inspiring him to fight for a future where every family can thrive with access to quality healthcare, affordable housing, and strong community services. His personal experiences as a husband and father give him a heartfelt understanding of the everyday issues that families face, and he is committed to advocating for policies that support families, children, and seniors alike.

Electing Mike Scott to the Maine Senate in District 20 is an opportunity to bring a proven leader with real-world experience into Augusta. His background as a first responder, union leader, and community advocate equips him to effectively represent the diverse interests of Auburn, Durham, New Gloucester, and Poland. He understands the importance of accessible healthcare, affordable living, and strong community services—issues that directly impact the families he has served for over three decades.

Endorsed by respected community leaders such as State Rep. Kilton Webb and Senate President Mattie Daughtry, Scott’s leadership has already earned recognition and support from those who value dedication, integrity, and results.

The choice in this election is clear. Mike Scott is not a career politician—he is a dedicated public servant committed to making Maine a better place for retirees, families, and workers.

Mike Scott embodies these qualities, and PFFMaine stands behind him as he seeks to represent District 20 with honor and resolve.
