Senator Brad Farrin is serving his fourth term in the Maine State Senate. He represents the people of District 3, which includes municipalities in both Somerset and Penobscot counties as well as the Kennebec County communities of Benton, Clinton and Unity Township.

Prior to serving in the Maine Senate, Sen. Farrin served District 111 for two terms in the Maine House of Representatives. While there, he served as the ranking member of the Veterans and Legal Affairs Committee and the Transportation Committee. He continued his service as the Senate Republican Lead on both of those committees in his first two terms and served on the Transportation Committee during the 131st Legislature.

With more than 35 years of experience in construction and project management, Sen. Farrin is the Corporate Facilities Manager for Milton CAT, New England’s premier construction equipment supplier, as well as Milton Rents, a construction equipment rental company. In this role, he is responsible for property management, regulatory compliance, facility maintenance and the start-up of all major capital projects for 31 facilities across six states.

Prior to his legislative service, he was the Command Chief Master Sergeant for the Maine Air National Guard before retiring in 2013 as its highest-ranking enlisted airman after serving for nearly three decades. He deployed to Iraq in 2008 in Operation Iraqi Freedom and to the Horn of Africa in 2009 in support of Operation Enduring Freedom. Sen. Farrin has more than 18 major awards and decorations, including the Legion of Merit and the Air Force Meritorious Service Medal.

He is a proud member of the American Legion, VFW, the Enlisted Association of the National Guard, and the Air Force Sergeants Association. Locally, he served as a captain with the Norridgewock Fire Department until 2004. Sen. Farrin lives in Norridgewock with his wife, Lynn. Between the two, they have four daughters and four grandchildren.
