 Team,
Growing up in Allagash and spending years working 80-hour weeks in the woods to make ends meet, I know firsthand what working Mainers need from our government.
And for 30 years, Susan Collins has failed us. Time and again, she has sold us out to Donald Trump and his MAGA agenda while pretending we’re too dumb to notice. And I’m sick of it.
My name is Troy Jackson. I’m a proud Mainer, father, and fifth-generation logger.
Moments ago, I officially earned the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate. Now it’s time to defeat Susan Collins and her billionaire backers. So I’m asking you to split a donation between my campaign and End Citizens United to become a Founding Donor to my campaign right now and help us win the most important Senate race in the country.
Team, let me tell you a bit about what this race means to me.
When I was growing up, I was a poor kid in a town full of poor kids. My family relied on food relief at times. I distinctly remember when I was 13 years old, we didn’t have heat or running water, and I heard my mother quietly crying to herself, wishing she could do more for us.
After high school, I became a logger like my dad, and his dad, and his dad before him. When a greedy landowner tried to screw my fellow loggers and me out of fair wages, I fought back. A whole bunch of politicians, including then-first-term Senator Susan Collins, promised to listen, but they left us high and dry — and I realized that nothing would change unless there were working-class voices in power.
So I ran for the Maine legislature, where I served 20 years, including six years as the President of the Maine Senate. It’s been the honor of my life to fight for working people.
I drove hours each way between the North Woods and the State Capitol, because that's what the job required. I won those elections in a district that went for Trump by 20 points, because up here, people care less about a label and more about whether you give a damn about their family.
Team, I’m building this campaign the right way. With grassroots support from folks just like you. I’m not running to impress the billionaires or the corporate class. I’m running for the mom who’s worried about how she’ll fill her gas tank this week. I’m running for the kid whose whole life will be determined by the quality of his education. I’m running to ensure every working family in Maine has the government they deserve.
If you believe in this fight and our movement, I’m humbly asking you to split a donation between my campaign and End Citizens United today to help us hit our fundraising goal and take on the GOP’s millions. Even $5 makes a huge difference >>
In solidarity with you always,
Troy Jackson |

Because of the Citizens United ruling, Elon Musk was able to spend almost $300 MILLION to buy our democracy.
And now, we're facing the dire consequences.
We know we send a lot of emails. And you might be wondering why: We aren’t a SuperPAC. We’re not funded by corporate PACs. We spend EVERY DIME so efficiently by running proven effective ads to win the most competitive races, stand up against billionaires, push to pass SWEEPING Campaign Finance Reform, and build our movement. Friend, when we pass the Constitutional Amendment to overturn Citizens United and save our democracy, you'll be able to say you helped make that happen. We believe that emails are a crucial way for our campaign to stay in touch with supporters like you. If you'd prefer to receive fewer emails, click here. However, if you'd prefer to unsubscribe, click here. If you'd like to donate, please click here. From the entire End Citizens United team, thanks for your support!
