Troy Jackson is a fifth-generation logger from Allagash, Maine—and he’s never forgotten where he came from. Long before he ever set foot in the State House, Troy was putting in 80-hour weeks in the woods, running equipment, driving trucks and chopping wood while trying to make ends meet without health insurance.

Meet Troy Jackson

Troy Jackson is a fifth-generation logger from Allagash—and he’s never forgotten where he came from.

Long before he ever set foot in the State House, Troy was putting in 80-hour weeks in the woods, running equipment, driving trucks and chopping wood while trying to make ends meet.

He knows what it means to be under the thumb of a greedy corporation, live paycheck to paycheck, go without health insurance, work long hours each week, and still worry about how you’re going to pay the bills. That’s not something you read about in a briefing book — it’s something you live. And it’s what shaped Troy’s fight for working people from day one.

Troy understood what it was like to feel powerless in the face of corporate power at a young age. When Troy was 12 years old he accompanied his logger father to the woods and watched a wealthy landowner threaten to fire his father and his coworkers for having the nerve just to protect what little they had to work one of the country’s most dangerous jobs.

Years later, when Troy was working as a logger in those same woods, greedy corporations started replacing Maine loggers with cheap foreign labor. Troy didn’t just talk—he helped organize a blockade at the Canadian border. That moment of defiance turned generations of frustration into action and launched a political career rooted in one thing: standing up to corporate greed and fighting for people who work for a living.

For more than 20 years, Troy has stood up for working-class Mainers in Augusta. As Senate President, Troy took on Big Pharma to lower drug costs, passed universal school meals, protected individual freedoms, funded rural hospitals, saved our rural veterans’ homes, delivered property tax relief, defended our environment, and passed laws to make sure Maine workers get fair wages, decent benefits, and a voice on the job. He’s never been afraid to speak out when his own party gets it wrong or when powerful interests try to stack the deck against regular people.

Troy’s running for Governor for the people who are too often left behind — the loggers, farmers, fishermen, teachers, truck drivers, and nurses who keep this state running but get none of the credit, glory or even a break. He knows they don’t need more empty promises or going along to get along — they need someone who’s lived their struggles and won’t back down when the fight gets tough.

Troy still lives in Allagash with his partner, Lana. They have two adult sons and remain deeply rooted in the community that shaped him.
