EXCLUSIVE: Maine state Rep. Laurel Libby, a Republican, announced on Monday she will not seek re-election in 2026 , instead partnering with The Sentinel Action Fund, a conservative super PAC, to support U.S. Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, and other Republicans in the state as part of the launch of a new network of organizations. "From Fort Kent to Wells, there's no doubt that Maine is a uniquely beautiful state — but its true strength is its people who are hardworking, independent, and full of grit," Libby told FOX News Digital. "Everywhere I go, Mainers tell me they’re frustrated with the challenges our state faces but uncertain how to make a difference.

Among the organizations will be a 501(c)4 nonprofit and a state PAC, with an overarching communication network, according to the release.
