How Maine helps us get a majority

Danielle, just over a week ago, I stood with my friend Troy Jackson in Portland, looking out at about a thousand Mainers.

You could feel it in that crowd. People are tired of watching billionaires and Trump’s corruption. They’re ready to take their country back, and they want a government that works for them.

Sound familiar? It’s not just happening in Maine. I’ve heard the same thing in every state I’ve visited this year: in town halls, at kitchen tables, and from crowds just like the one in Portland. Americans everywhere are ready for change.

That’s why what happens in Maine matters so much. The road to a Senate majority depends on it. And with a majority, we can hold Trump’s administration accountable, block his extreme judges, and pass policies that lower costs for working families.

Susan Collins has spent 30 years in Washington. Troy Jackson has spent his life in northern Maine, working as a logger and fighting for working families as a union man. He knows what it’s like to work hard and still struggle to get ahead, and he’s spent his career taking on powerful interests — and winning.

The choice couldn’t be clearer.

We have one week left to help Troy get across the finish line. Every contribution can help his campaign reach voters and make the case for change before they cast their ballots. Please split a donation between Troy Jackson’s campaign and our movement today.
