Folks… what this campaign is about is pretty simple.

If you work hard, you ought to be able to take your kid to the doctor.

You oughta be able to buy groceries without doing math in the damn aisle.

You oughta be able to retire with the Social Security and Medicare you paid into.

And you oughta be able to keep more of what you earn.

Billionaires shouldn't be paying less in taxes than a teacher or a logger.

It's time your hard work pays off.

A union if you want one.

A secure retirement.

And a government that answers to you instead of billionaires and corporations.

That's my pledge to working Mainers. by @troyjackson207

I spent years working 80-hour weeks as a logger in Northern Maine. Billionaire landowners tried to cut our wages. We filed 137 complaints with the Department of Labor. Every single one was denied.

We asked Susan Collins for help. She did nothing.

So 14 other loggers and I blocked the Canadian border crossing in St. Pamphile for a week in 1998.

That fight taught me something: nothing was going to change for working people unless we had a working class voice in the room. So I ran for the state legislature. There, I fought to lower prescription drug prices, passed universal school meals, protected union jobs, expanded rural health care, delivered property tax relief, and helped pass some of the strongest reproductive health protections in the country.

Now I’m running for U.S. Senate because I’m tired of watching working families get squeezed while the wealthiest keep getting more. Working Mainers deserve a fighter in Washington. It’s time to put power back in the hands of the people. by @troyjackson207

With 34 days left til election day, it’ll take thousands of conversations with friends and neighbors about what’s at stake to bring this home. Thanks to everyone who turned out in Belfast, Kennebunk, and Sanford. I appreciate it. by @troyjackson207

Susan Collins is the Chair of Appropriations and she’s not willing to use that power to help the people in the state of Maine.

I’m 100% dug in on getting shit done. by @troyjackson207

Today, Trump’s tariffs go into effect.

Despite what Trump says, these sweeping tariffs will only hurt us— and all Collins can tell us is how concerned she is.

Mainers need a Senator who will actually stand up to Trump and stop screwing over working people. by @troyjackson207
