A new visa rule would jeopardize the education of nearly one million international students and harm hundreds of colleges and universities, including in Maine. This policy must be rescinded to allow students to retain their visas if they attend classes online due to COVID-19. https://t.co/vGwxA1yvzh — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Susan Collins @SenatorCollins
The PPP has been a tremendous success, helping support nearly 75% of small businesses in Maine & sustaining nearly 200,000 Maine jobs. As the economic crisis caused by COVID-19 continues, however, millions of small employers need additional help to stay above water & survive. https://t.co/ePFJHw7fGN — PolitiTweet.org

I questioned Dr. Fauci about pool testing, an efficient, cost-effective way to help communities safely reopen. This strategy could help schools identify the presence of COVID-19 & protect students, teachers, staff, & other employees. https://t.co/N1GuxpaIC8 — PolitiTweet.org
Sen. Susan Collins @SenatorCollins
