WASHINGTON D.C. — U.S. Sen. Susan Collins has continued her perfect voting record with a consecutive voting streak that extends to 4,825 roll call votes having been present for every roll call vote that has occurred in the Senate since she was sworn into office in January 1997.
“Mainers are known for their strong values and work ethic. They hold their elected officials to these same high standards and rightfully so,” said Collins. “It continues to be my great honor and privilege to serve in the U.S. Senate representing the people of Maine. This is a responsibility that I both enjoy and take very seriously,” the senator added.
In addition to not missing any recorded votes, Sen. Collins continues to return home to Maine for weekends and during congressional recesses to meet with constituents, visiting communities, businesses and schools throughout the state.
