About Marie M Fielder
Personal Statement
Marie has spent her career and private life supporting minorities and those who don’t have a voice. Marie believes government works best when all people are represented with fairness, equity and respect. To ensure that all communities and citizens flourish, we have to start at home; that means rural Northern Michigan, where challenges and needs play out in everyday life. We solve problems by working together and embracing the rights afforded to all people under the Constitution of the United States of America.
