    418 people in Maine died in 2017 as a result of drug overdoses, an 11% increase. At the same time, federal gov't has increased funding to fight opioid epidemic. At Heath Committee hearing, I asked Gov. Hogan of MD how state & federal governments can partner to solve this crisis.pic.twitter.com/nGhis6iC6K

        Maybe not voting for the tax scam bill would have been a starter. Look what happened to Kansas under Brownback. Tax cuts for the rich do not trickle down. And now Ryan and McConnell won’t keep their promises to you.

        STOP. You hurt us all with your voting on the tax bill. You are going to be voted out. Nothing you do can replace the faith we all once had in you.

        How ‘bout gun deaths? Whatcha been doing about THAT? Did you know, Sen. Shill, ME ranks 9th in the nation in the rate of women killed by men. A loophole in state law allows domestic abusers and felons to purchase guns without a background check. #HAPPYINTERNATIONALWOMENSDAY

        Sen Collins, I can answer your questions & so much more. Would you consider assisting me in getting just ELEVEN minutes before the Senate VA Committee next week? Call me 423-794-8241 My pleas have gone unanswered since Nov 2016? Will you answer the call to save millions?😢

        Please read for understanding as to why attacking veterans & millions of Americans will not solve the ILLEGAL drugs flooding our streets! https://medium.com/@robertdrosejr/america-betrayed-f7991ab222c9 … Cocaine, Crystal Meth, Bath Salts are all part of those death numbers! The data is all in this research w/citations.

        And yet you voted for the #taxscam AND your ironclad promises that control health care spending were not fulfilled. You are on the Senate Apps Comm. Appropriate don't shift the responsibility further to the states.

        How about not cut taxes for billionaires and then try to go after Medicaid and social security, #SelloutSusan ? Hypocrite

        And yet backing the tax bill weakened support for drug overdose by now making Medicare/Medicaid and SS a target.

        Thank you Senator Collins- in CA meth is the drug of slow death, tearing apart families. Drug topic discussion is appreciated. Once disability SSI and related services are cut I am expected my dual diagnosed son will lose service and die. Remember this is all health care.

        How many of them will die from cuts to Medicare, Social Security and other life-saving programs such as LIHEAP, etc? You know, those programs that you agreed to cut to pay for the Tax breaks for billionaires.

        The amount is a pittance of what’s required. Stop the nonsense. What is your party doing to protect us? Caving in when you had a good bargaining chip certainly didn't help us. People are going to die when Medicade & Medicare cuts go into effect. Do more than just pretend.
