Jake Chambers, Republican candidate for House District 9, recently met with Passamaquoddy Chief Billy Nicholas and was awarded full endorsement of the tribe, according to Chambers.  

“We had great conversation, discussing everything from tribal issues, the economics of fuel oil, cost of gasoline, and the cost of food,” Chambers said of the meeting.  

“We also discussed the drug epidemic and the loss of lives in this area,” he added, both topics on which Chambers has heavily focused throughout his campaign.
