Laurel Dawson Munsell Libby (born May 15, 1981) is an American politician, interior designer, and former nurse. A Republican, she is currently the representative for Maine House District 90, representing Minot and part of Auburn. She was elected to the Maine House in November 2020, 2022 and 2024. She opposed vaccine laws in Maine as well as mask mandates.
Libby was a leader of the 2020 people's veto campaign opposing childhood vaccination laws in Maine and protested public health measures implemented to prevent the spread of COVID-19. Libby was one of seven conservative House Members to be stripped of their committee assignments over refusal to comply with mask mandates in the State House during the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2025, Libby was stripped of her voting and speaking rights on the House floor after being censured for a social media post that criticized the participation of transgender athletes in girls' sports. Her voting rights were later restored by the US Supreme Court pending the outcome of litigation.
