    In 37 states including Maine, state law enforcement is not alerted when prohibited individuals try to buy guns. To help stop dangerous people from obtaining guns illegally, I cosponsored a bill requiring the federal gov’t to notify states when someone fails a background check.pic.twitter.com/k4WDe4ZoJV

        Whoa, Susie - finally something worthwhile. This is a vital and long, long overdue fix to NICS #FixNICS . It'll never excuse you for your betrayal of all of us when you voted for the #TrumpTaxScam though. So looking forward to voting you out!

        If the wackos at the @NRA weren't obsessed with the idea that 'the gummint's gonna put us on a list and take our guns away', we could have a national database which would increase efficiency and reduce errors.

        How about an assault weapons ban? Why do civilians need weapons of war? Also, we won't forget that you voted for the terrible, mean and deeply flawed tax bill.

        Why isn’t such a basic check already in place? What have you all been doing on gun control since 1994?

        Senator, i follow you as many americans do, but as a veteran from Vietnam and combat soldier, i am "TOTALLY" against the sales of combat rifles to civilians. I wonder what will be allowed next? The "M4?😥

        Of larger concern, is that fact @SenatorCollins that citizens in Maine can buy a firearm second hand with no background check at all. The law only requires confirmation that the purchasing party is of age. Do something, before your state becomes the place killers go to get armed.

        "Carter Page colluded," Trump Campaign aide Sam Nunberg. @SenatorCollins' silence is complicity with treason.

        Thanks for that, but let’s add an assault weapons ban please. People are being slaughtered by people bearing these weapons.
