John,

Senator Susan Collins of Maine has received a whopping $1.4 million in donations from people representing drug and insurance corporations. So, it should come as no surprise that Susan Collins is the co-sponsor of a bill that protects pharmaceutical monopolies.

But, as chair of the Senate Aging Committee, shouldn’t she be standing with seniors—not with Big Pharma?

Social Security Works is getting the truth out there. We are making sure people throughout Maine know the facts about Sen. Collins, by making sure that Mainers get the message. Next month, residents of Maine’s largest city, Portland, are going to start seeing cars driving around like this:

So far, we’ve raised enough money to run these mobile ads through the end of March. But in order to hold Susan Collins accountable to her constituents, we need to keep our cars on the road all the way through Election Day.

Donate to Social Security Works today to let Maine voters know the truth about Susan Collins’s awful record on pharmaceuticals.

Senator Collins was recently exposed for lying about contributions from Purdue Pharmaceuticals and Eli Lilly, the two Big Pharma corporations who have profited most from the opioid epidemic.¹

We don’t need yet another U.S. Senator in the pocket of Big Pharma. We need senators who stand up to the monied interests and fight for the people.  

Remember, Big Pharma only contributes to Senator Collins because they believe they are getting something in return. So what are the pharmaceutical and insurance industries looking for in exchange for their nearly $1.5 million in campaign contributions? The answer is simple: They believe Senator Collins has their back. They believe they have found a politician who will protect their profits and will keep the gears of the for-profit health care system churning—even if it means bankrupting countless families throughout the United States.

Donate $7 or more today to keep our mobile billboards up throughout Maine all the way until Election Day. Your donation today is holding Susan Collins accountable!

Together, we’re fighting back against a broken health care system that is based on runaway greed, and that’s bankrupting U.S. families.

Thank you,

Alex Lawson

PS: These cars aren’t just driving around idly. Our drivers would have been on the road one way or the other, they’re just putting their cars in service of lowering drug prices at the same time.
