PORTLAND PRESS HERALD • August 16, 2021
Sen. Susan Collins is irresponsibly out of step with the desires of Mainers regarding climate change policy. Since Gov. Mills took office our government has made great progress in responding to climate change. In this past legislative session our government passed numerous climate action bills. Sen. Angus King and Reps. Chellie Pingree and Jared Golden support strong climate action, but Collins is out of step; Maine public opinion is strongly in favor, but Collins refuses; our state government is taking aggressive actions, but Collins is unsupportive – on the most critical issue of our time. She is the impediment. ~ Charles Spanger, Scarborough
