Maine’s senior senator pretends to be a moderate, but her record undermines her rhetoric. The truth? She’s deeply in the pocket of Washington special interests.
In total, Collins has raised over $500,000 from powerful special interests in Washington so far this year alone. Over the course of her career, that number is almost $10 million.
Last fundraising quarter, Collins raised THREE TIMES the amount of money from Wall Street and finance interests than she did from Mainers.
The quarter before, she raised more money from Texas fossil fuel interests than from her home state.
Meanwhile, less than 5% of the campaign cash she’s raised this year comes from Maine.
Collins is also pulling in thousands of dollars from extreme right-wing figures, like the founder of Breitbart and key backers of Brett Kavanaugh.
Collins wants Maine voters to think she’s with them – but her record of handouts to the same billionaires and corporations that are funding her campaign says otherwise.
