Fosters Daily Democrat- U.S. Senator Susan Collins stepped off a bus at the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard to the sound of dozens of cheering firefighters Friday when she kicked off a campaign push that saw her accepting the endorsement of thousands of the state's emergency responders.
The Professional Firefighters of Maine is among numerous police and fire organizations supporting Collins, a Republican, in her bid for a third term and the recent visit saw her traveling throughout the southern part of the Maine on a bus tour to accept their endorsement and thank them for their service.
Collins sounds alarm, touts support of first responders
SeacoastOnline.com-Before a sea of firefighters from across Maine wearing yellow T-shirts in support of her, Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, stood at the gate of the Portsmouth Naval Shipyard Friday morning thanking them for their work.
"When people get in trouble, when they need a first responder, they don't dial 202, the area code for Washington, DC. They dial 9-1-1," she said, to great applause.
