Susan Collins: “We know that the Housing First model has been successfully used to reduce homelessness in many communities.”

I increased by 17% the budget for the independent Office of Inspector General.

I am pleased that these funds are being released to help Mainers afford to heat their homes this winter without having to choose between staying warm and paying for other basic necessities.

That is absolutely outrageous, and you owe me an apology.

It’s a critical program and the foundation of retirement income for most Mainers, and I’ve voted repeatedly to preserve it.
