Response to this claim
Collins bears responsibility for the Medicaid cuts because she helped advance the legislation despite opposing final passage.
“You know, Sen. Collins is like an arsonist who helped set the fire and then she wants credit for bringing a cup of water to put it out”
Jackson criticizes Collins's role in advancing the bill. Collins cites her final no vote and rural-health fund and corrects his committee attribution.
He condemns her role in advancing the law, rather than disputing the existence of her final no vote.

Response to this claim
Susan Collins knowingly participated in a pay-to-play arrangement in which Navatek campaign support was exchanged for her office's assistance obtaining federal contracts.
“This is corruption of the highest order. Susan Collins delivered millions in taxpayer dollars for a corrupt donor bankrolling her campaign, and then Donald Trump helped her cover it up.”
Primary statement from Collins's Democratic Senate opponent reacting to the ProPublica investigation and demanding answers about contracts and conversations involving Collins's team.
Archived copy (opens in a new tab)Relative to the alleged exchange of campaign support for contract assistance, Jackson expressly calls the conduct corruption and attacks Collins for it. This is substantive condemnation.
