Troy Jackson, US Senate Candidate from Maine, Appeared on MSNOW Cable News on August 22, 2026.

One of Numerous Similar Signs at the Weekly Collins/ Trump Protest in Monument Square, Portland.

Fifth-generation logger, former Maine Senate President and Democratic nominee for US Senate Troy Jackson stood with union rail workers as they called for increased safety measures at Rigby Yard in South Portland and rallied volunteers with the Seacoast Democratic party in York.  He also stood with union workers at a Sheet Metal, Air, Rail and Transportation International Association press conference to advocate for rail safety, following two CSX train derailments over the last month in New England.

“Bringing back yardmasters at Rigby to coordinate safe train movements and emergency response is one of the many steps CSX could take to prevent the next derailment from being a toxic one,” said Jackson.  “I’m proud to stand with SMART and union workers today and everyday because Mainers deserve a US Senator who fights for them — not the corporations that are squeezing working people in the first place.”

At an office opening for the Seacoast Democratic party Thursday night, Jackson met with volunteers and voters, highlighting the momentum behind his campaign and the importance of every Mainer who is helping him beat Susan Collins.

“I’ve never seen energy or momentum like this before — it’s about all of us together and what we can do when we have a government that actually works for working people — not billionaires,” explained Jackson.  “This is about how we retire Susan Collins and build a better future for Maine.”

“Although MAGA Member Susan Collins promotes herself in her tv ads and on-line ads as a moderate or bipartisan, neither label applies to her.  That’s because she has voted 96% of the time in support of Corrupt Trump’s agenda,” says this blogger.  “That includes voting for over 100 anti-abortion judges.”
