Today, I am formally suspending my campaign. I want to thank my team, our volunteers, and everyone who supported our fight. I look forward to continuing to fight alongside Maine activists as we work to protect our communities in these trying times.

🥾 "Pick yourself up by your bootstraps"? That’s a lie. Our system is rigged so working families drown in debt while the wealthy hoard opportunity. Predatory loans and corporate greed are chaining an entire generation to debt. Education should be a ladder, not an anchor.

Maine's kids shouldn’t need fundraisers to afford school supplies.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

People like Trump live for greed and gain, cutting necessary programs and funding to line their already full pockets and make life worse for those who are already struggling. It’s time we audit the 1% and fund Maine for Maine.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 02/10/2025

Our kids are told their future depends on a 4-year degree — but too often that “future” means crushing debt and broken promises. We need affordable schools, debt relief, and job pathways that work for everyone. Education should open doors — not chain us to poverty.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 01/10/2025

True representation in government and accountability for corporations are needed now more than ever. We need to take on the moneyed interests who have stripped us of our rights, our homes, and our healthcare.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 01/10/2025

Property taxes funding schools means zip codes decide opportunity. Wealthy families get the best education, while working-class kids are left behind. We need equity in funding, affordable college and trade schools, and real pathways to work.

Let me be clear: what is happening to the Palestinians in Gaza checks off all of the boxes. There is no debate. There is no doubt. This is an ongoing Genocide, and it must be stopped.

It's time to put money back into our pockets. It's time to put power back into our hands. It's time to fund the people.

“Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness” is supposed to be a central value of this country, but truthfully, it only applies to those at the very top. I will fight corruption and greed wherever I see it, so that we can all live the American dream we were promised.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 29/09/2025

Mainers across the state are standing up and speaking out to protect our communities. It was an honor to join the weekly protest in Wells this weekend. In these troubled times, we owe it to our neighbors to stand up, speak out, and get involved!

Fund Maine FOR Maine. Are you with me?

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

We need real investment in Maine's healthcare, and we need real leadership that understands that this isn’t just about numbers on a report. This is about our neighbors, our loved ones, and our futures.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 28/09/2025

It’s time we took a look at the endless spending of the 1% and put that money where it belongs: towards healthcare, education, and infrastructure.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 27/09/2025

Career politicians and their ultra-wealthy donors have had their turn at the wheel. They failed. It’s time the people got that chance.

Roe v. Wade should've been codified years ago. Now, we have no choice. Our rights are at stake.

Who gives a damn about the comfort of the ultra-wealthy when we can barely afford groceries? We’ve gotten it all wrong for decades. We need to focus on consumer protection, not on corporations' comfort.

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

In 2021, Maine finally decided to fund education by 55%. And yet, these funds are coming from the taxpayer, NOT the ultra-wealthy. Interesting… 🤔

The status quo has abandoned working Americans nationwide. It's well past time for career politicians to step aside and let a new generation lead our party forward to progress. loom.ly/mfHVGGo

To me, fighting corporate greed isn’t about numbers on a spreadsheet; it’s about protecting those I work with and the Mainers I represent.

In America, the quality of a child’s education too often depends on their zip code. But it doesn’t have to be this way. I will advocate for education funding that's: ✅ Equitable ✅ Statewide ✅ Federal

Daira for Maine @dairaforme.bsky.social · 24/09/2025

Put working Mainers first, because putting the corrupt career politicians and the 1% first is what got us into this mess.

Corrupt oligarchs have gotten far too comfortable using taxpayer dollars to aid in genocide and endless wars abroad. Our money should fund us, not bombs.

Maine needs a Senator with the experience of taking on the wealthiest interests in America – someone who understands the courage it takes to stand up to truly powerful people. I’m Daira Smith-Rodriguez, and it's time to Audit the Pentagon and Fund the People.

I know what I would do with 1% of the Pentagon’s funds… Fund our education, our healthcare, and fix our housing crisis.

Maine needs a Senator who won't back down from a fight. Which reminds me...

My campaign is rooted in the same values that have guided my life: accountability, fairness, and the belief that the government must work for the ordinary people.

Maine is our home. It’s about damn time we had someone in Washington who actually lives like us and will fight like they live for us.

When I fell on hard times, I was worried that taking assistance might mean less for someone who needed it more. Now I know that’s not true. We need to strengthen our social safety nets and erase the stigma associated with them.

I was grateful to join the Kennebunk Democrats yesterday to protest the Republican extremism that is attacking Mainers’ way of life. When we stand together, we win. No matter the odds.

The American people are onto career politicians and their tricks. The illusion has been broken. Donald Trump and his devastating policies are stripping the working class of their freedom, their homes, and their peace of mind. No more complicity in genocide and forever wars.

For nearly fifteen years, I have served as a Civilian Contracting Officer in the U.S. Air Force, where I fought corporate abuse and protected service members from waste, fraud, and greed. Now, I’m ready to bring that same fight to the Senate.
