Scoop: A New York-based union leader quoted in a Maine Senate attack ad sends a “cease and desist” threat to the PAC, demanding the spot be pulled down
The Teamsters official is quoted in the GOP ad as slamming Troy Jackson’s health care plan. He tells me he didn’t comment on Jackson’s plan and was “shocked” to see the quote in the ad.
Here’s what he did say, the origin of the quote and how the PAC (SLF) is responding.
Plus, Jackson defends his M4A plan and touts support from Maine’s local Teamsters. Health care is a big issue in ME-Senate as Collins criticizes his position.

Scoop: Texas Rep. Sylvia Garcia expressed dismay that Gov. Beshear didn't attend a DGA mtg w/Latino leaders this a.m. as they pushed for more money for Hinojosa.
Garcia lauded Pritzker while warning Beshear about a White House run.
“Any path to the White House goes through the Latino community,” Garcia tells us. “We’re going to remember in 2028 who was there with us when we needed them and who wasn’t.”
