Washington, D.C.—U.S. Senator Susan Collins, the Chairman of the Aging Committee, is cautioning seniors to be on guard against a pernicious scam that seeks to rob them of their hard-earned savings.  Mainers have reported receiving calls that appear to be from the Social Security Administration informing them that their Social Security number has been compromised.  The scammers claim they need additional information from the victim to verify their identity. 

The transcript of Senator Collins’ radio actuality is below:

Washington, D.C.—U.S. Senator Susan Collins issued this statement following the announcement of President Trump’s decision to pull U.S. troops out of northeastern Syria:

“This is a terribly unwise decision by the President to abandon our Kurdish allies, who have been our major partner in the fight against the Islamic State.”

Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senators Susan Collins (R-ME) and Chris Murphy (D-CT), along with U.S. Representatives Scott Peters (CA-52) and Matt Gaetz (FL-1), on Friday wrote in strong opposition to the Environmental Protection Agency’s (EPA) proposal to modify the New Source Performance Standards (NSPS), an Obama administration regulation to limit methane emissions from new, reconstructed, and modified sources in the oil and gas sector.
