Senator Collins keeps telling us how powerful she is, but for who? Families struggling to afford groceries, medicine, and heating oil shouldn’t have to write a campaign check to get their senator’s attention. I don’t owe the billionaires anything. I owe Maine everything.

“What she doesn’t want to talk about is this is a crisis that was started by her and Donald Trump,” Troy Jackson said in the 2nd debate. Jackson said Susan Collins voted 5 times against ending the Iran War; Collins said she voted 9 times to end the war. Both are correct, Maine Morning Star noted.

Susan Collins voted to continue the Iran War five times. That’s five times she’s betrayed Mainers to benefit her own bottom line. She and her husband hold up to $100,000 in oil and gas stock. So while our prices go up, she's getting richer.

Senator Collins said she was going to get ICE out of Maine, but she has failed to do that. Even further, she handed over $70 billion to ICE without guardrails or accountability. And Maine paid the price.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.
