"(N)o one should give a pass to Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), who preens as defender of abortion rights but cast deciding votes to put two anti-Roe justices on the Supreme Court and who poses as a defender of Medicaid but advanced to the floor a bill slashing over $1 trillion from the program. She safely voted no when the bill came to a final vote, but she had already voted with her party when it mattered ... Collins is second to none in rationalizing horrible votes. Perhaps Maine voters will finally see through her abject hypocrisy and send her into retirement in 2026."
