GRAHAM FOR MAINE
I am not afraid to stand up for Medicare for All. I am not afraid to call what is happening in Gaza a genocide. And I am not afraid to stand in the way of fascism and protect the American people.
Hey, Graham Platner here, the Marine veteran and oyster farmer running for U.S. Senate here in Maine against Susan Collins. Nothing makes me angrier than establishment Democrats fundraising off of how they're going to stand up to fascism and then turning around and doing nothing. That is not going to be me. I am not afraid to stand up for Medicare for All. I am not afraid to call what is happening in Gaza a genocide. And I am not afraid to stand in the way of fascism and protect the American people. But I need your help. Every dollar you can donate to our campaign goes towards building a movement. A movement that is going to allow us to protect democracy, to organize communities, and to build the political machine necessary to save America, defeat Susan Collins, and retake the Senate in 2026. So please, will you make a monthly donation to our campaign now to help me defeat Susan Collins and flip Maine blue? I'm not taking money from AIPAC or corporate PACs, so not amount is too small.
