Human Rights Campaign PAC Endorses Pro-Equality Champion Troy…
Maine needs a senator who actively defends LGBTQ+ rights and democracy, rather than supporting Donald Trump's policies, and Troy Jackson is the right candidate for that.
The people of Maine deserve a senator who doesn't just talk about standing up to Donald Trump but actually does it when it counts.
The text is a press release from the Human Rights Campaign PAC announcing its endorsement of Troy Jackson in the U.S. Senate race in Maine. HRC President Kelley Robinson argues that Maine needs a senator who actively stands up against Donald Trump and his policies, and accuses incumbent Senator Susan Collins of having supported Trump's candidates and legislation. Jackson is presented as a champion of LGBTQ+ rights, abortion access, and the Equality Act. The text cites specific votes by Collins on Kavanaugh, Gorsuch, Bondi, Noem, and a tax and social policy bill as evidence of a 'troubling track record.' It points to the mobilization of over 420,000 Equality Voters in Maine, who, according to the HRC, are younger, more ethnically diverse, and more female than the general electorate. The text closes with the note that LGBTQ+ adults make up 12.6 percent of Maine's population, and implicitly calls for voting for Jackson in November.
