Dr. Nirav Shah joins our host Cate Blackford on the podcast to discuss his run for Maine governor and how his background in public health as the former director of the Maine CDC shapes his approach to leadership. He talks about the importance of competent state governance, clear communication and rebuilding public trust.
Shah outlines his plans to tackle Maine’s housing shortage through higher-density development and increased supply, and to make health care more affordable by capping copays and deductibles. He also proposes expanding child care access with support from the private sector and strengthening the workforce by making Maine a more affordable place to live and work.
