This program is an interview of Andy O'Brien who is the Communication Director of the Maine AFL-CIO. He has recently written a substack and a shorter piece which appeared recently in the Maine Beacon - "Hospital lobbyist thanks Collins while Mainers pay the price for expensive health care" which pointed out that Senator Collins has repeatedly supported deep cuts to Medicaid and Medicare, voting to repeal or undermine the Affordable Care Act and blocking efforts to lower drug prices including a $35 insulin cap. Andy pointed out that Senator Collins wants us to believe that she is uniquely responsible for bringing home every federal dollar to Maine, but every Senator brings home federal money because that's their job and that Maine's entire Congressional delegation plays a role in securing federal money for various projects. Andy also talked about how she used her power to cut more funding to Maine than she is bringing in. She had the power to stop Trump's One Big Beautiful Bill (OBB) but didn't. She voted for the bill when it mattered and took a symbolic vote against it when her vote wasn't needed. Senator Collins and her allies frequently tout her support for the Rural Health Transformation program which is projected to provide $950 million for Maine, but it is far short of the $2.7 billion needed to offset the impact of the OBB cuts. This same bill cuts $1.1 billion over 10 years from food assistance programs which help struggling families, people with disabilities, veterans and other Mainers who have fallen on hard times. The OBB also has put $5.3 billion in planned Maine clean energy investments at risk.
