Susan Collins: “He president had learned his lesson and would be much more cautious in the future”

Freight rail is essential to northern Maine’s economy, connecting our forest products and agricultural industries to markets across the country and around the world.

The fact is, this year alone, this Congress alone, I voted against President Trump 137 times.

I opposed the deal that he made with Vladimir Putin to get a small amount of diesel, and in return lift the sanctions that we just passed into law, and the president is not following the law.

By strengthening this critical rail corridor, this funding will support local jobs and help keep Aroostook County’s forest products and agricultural industries competitive for years to come.
