Chip in: Defeat Susan Collins 🔴

Donate today >>

Ad copy

I wanted you to be among the first to hear: I’m Maine Governor Janet Mills, and I’m officially running for Senate to defeat Susan Collins. Susan Collins has too often put party politics and special interests ahead of Maine families – and she’s backed by massive GOP cash. But I’m no stranger to a tough fight. I’m running to make sure Maine has a fighter in the Senate who will champion our state’s priorities and stand up for our democracy. Please, chip in $5 or anything you can today to help me unseat Susan Collins >>
