The new ad is running on Collins’ local Bangor Daily News homepage

Augusta, Maine – Today, the Maine Democratic Party is announcing a new homepage billboard advertisement on Bangor Daily News highlighting how Susan Collins has cost Mainers their health care, freedom, and the representation they deserve. The ad directs Mainers to examples of how “Collins Cost Us.”

Maine Democratic Party spokesperson Tommy Garcia:
“Susan Collins costs Mainers their wealth, health, and representation. Come 2026, voters will forcefully reject Collins’ record and role in ripping away Mainers’ health care, her history of falling in line with her party, and her failure to use the power and seniority she likes to campaign on to defend Maine.”

Here’s some of what Susan Collins has Cost Us:

  • Collins cost Mainers their health care when she greenlit the advancement of Republicans' toxic budget bill that will rip away coverage from over 61,000 and shut down hospitals in order to pay for tax giveaways to billionaires.

  • Collins cost Mainers their security and freedom when she repeatedly “rubber-stamp[ed]anti-choice Trump appointed judges — including her pivotal vote to confirm Justice Kavanaugh that led to the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

  • Collins costs Mainers a leader who prioritizes Maine when she refuses to use the power and seniority she campaigns on to put a stop to harmful legislation and instead has Trump and Republicans’ backs.
