  • Trump's tariffs have hurt our tourism and our wallets. Susan Collins boasts that she got us a tariff exemption- for road salt. Tariffs have added over $1000 in extra costs to Mainers every year. And our grocery and gas prices are still climbing thanks to the war in Iran. #OutOfTouch

  • Susan Collins SAYS she’s pro-choice, but her actions say something else. In 2018, she assured Mainers Brett Kavanaugh respected Roe. He helped overturn it. In 2022, even after a leaked draft showed Roe was about to fall, Collins voted AGAINST the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would have made Roe’s protections federal law.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
