On Monday, Sara Gideon, who has served two terms as Maine’s Speaker of the House and four as a state representative, launched a Senate campaign challenging Collins .
On her campaign’s website, Gideon sketches out a record distinguished by her commitment to an array of liberal policies, including abortion rights and expanded health-care access, and to reining in prescription-drug costs. She frames the choice between herself and Collins as one between someone who puts Mainers first and someone who prioritizes special interests over her constituents.
