In Their Words

What they have said, on the record

“I think this is about prioritizing where we spend our money. The federal government has all kinds of money to do whatever it wants, like I said with forever wars or tax cuts for wealthy people, but as soon as you start talking about healthcare for people, they act like it’s impossible to do. It’s not impossible to do, it’s impossible to get filthy rich off the system in a health care for all system.”
Jackson Promises To Protect Social Security, Lower Health Care Costs, Ensure Billionaires Pay TaxesSep 18, 2026 · Self-published · Campaign site (press release compiling TV interviews) · source
“Getting rid of the cap on social security is something that has been consistently talked about. Making sure that wealthier people pay the same rate that working class people do would definitely strengthen the social security system overall.”

“That’s the belief I carried in my heart on the blockade in ’98. It’s what I carried in my heart during two decades in the Maine legislature. And it’s what I will carry in my heart right into the United States Senate.”

“It taught me a lesson I’ve carried with me my entire life: power is never just handed over to working people. We have to take it.”

“I cosponsored and got signed into law some of the country’s strongest reproductive freedom protections. I fought every single day for the people of Maine, no matter where they live or how they vote, and I will continue to do so if the great people of Maine send me to the U.S. Senate.”

“I didn’t lead that blockade to make a political statement. I did it because we were tired of being ignored. Tired of watching our communities hollow out while the people in charge lined their pockets and looked the other way.”
