Addressing skyrocketing drug prices is a priority for Senator Susan Collins (R-ME). She has earned a national reputation for working across party lines to advance evidence-based solutions to pressing policy issues. In 20 years in office, she has held numerous leadership positions, including current chair of the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging.

She has also championed bipartisan measures in Congress to increase the affordability and accessibility of prescription drugs. Beginning in 2015, Senator Collins led the Senate’s landmark bipartisan investigation into the rising prices of off-patent prescription drugs, and legislation she introduced to improve generic drug competition and reduce costs became law in 2017.
