Susan Collins Career

From 1975 to 1987, Collins worked as a legislative assistant to U.S. Representative and later U.S. Senator William Cohen. She worked as the staff director of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs' Oversight of Government Management Subcommittee from 1981 to 1987. Collins joined Governor John R. McKernan Jr.'s cabinet in 1987 as Commissioner of Professional and Financial Regulation. 

President George H. W. Bush appointed her as the Small Business Administration's New England regional director in 1992. 

After briefly serving in this position until President Bill Clinton's election in 1992, she moved to Massachusetts in 1993 and became Deputy State Treasurer under Joe Malone. 

Collins was elected to the Senate in 1996. During the campaign, she stated that if elected, she would only serve two terms. In 2020, Collins will be challenged by Democratic State House Speaker Sara Gideon. Collins spent $23 million on the election, while Gideon spent more than $48 million, making it the most expensive in Maine history. Collins' defeat was an important part of the Democrats' strategy for gaining a Senate majority, so the campaign had national ramifications. Collins won by a large margin despite trailing Gideon in every public poll during the campaign. 

In May 2021, it was revealed that the FBI was investigating a defense contractor in Hawaii who allegedly channeled $150,000 to a pro-Collins super PAC and repaid payments to Collins' 2020 campaign, both of which were illegal. According to a spokeswoman, the campaign was unaware of the communication. Collins cast her 8,000th consecutive roll call vote on October 28, 2021; only Chuck Grassley and William Proxmire had longer streaks. 

Collins has stated that she will vote to confirm Supreme Court nominee Ketanji Brown Jackson, making her the only Republican senator to do so. This is consistent with her voting record, in which she has supported almost every Supreme Court nominee with the exception of Amy Coney Barret.
