Medical Freedom Candidates: Ed Thelander
Congressional District 1
Ed Thelander is a retired Navy SEAL, small businessman, volunteer firefighter, reserve deputy sheriff, loving father, and devoted husband. He has never sought political office before but is answering the call to serve his country once more.
A decorated combat veteran with 21 years of experience as a Navy SEAL, Ed participated in U.S. operations in Afghanistan, Kosovo, Central and South America, Southeast Asia, and the Caribbean. An expert in special operations, he has helped lead many of the Navy’s specialized training programs.
Now Ed is ready to serve in Congress, and determined to take on the pressing challenges facing our beloved country. He’ll fight for us, like he always has, and he will always do what’s right.
Respected for his ability to bring feuding sides together, Ed has led highly sensitive negotiations and helped bring peaceful resolution to complex tribal disputes. Ed’s strong leadership skills are sorely needed in Washington, D.C. today.
”Maine Stands Up reflects as diverse a cross-section of Maine people as has ever come together in one group, and all united in a common belief in freedom. This growing group is made up of people from all walks of life – farmers, doctors, lawyers, men and women of the fishing industry, moms and grandmas, artists and engineers, young and not-so-young. But we also come from all political orientations – Republicans, Independents and Democrats alike. We’ve all come together because we recognize the threat to our livelihoods and freedoms that these past few years have brought.
The website describes MSU as a group of freedom-loving Mainers united to protect our God-given rights and hold our elected officials accountable. That statement could easily be my own Congressional campaign pledge. We got into this race because my wife Liliana was very involved in the campaign to stop the mask and vaccine mandates. That effort also led us to Maine Stands Up. In so many ways, our run for Congress and being part of the MSU community have become part of the fabric of our lives at the same moment in time.
Liliana and I are so happy to be a part of this movement, and we’re very proud to have the support of so many thoughtful, passionate, freedom-loving Mainers!”
– Ed Thelander is a 21-year veteran of the U.S. Navy SEALs, resident of Bristol, Maine, and a candidate for Congress in Maine’s First Congressional District.
