Trahan noted that the group gave Collins an "A" grade for her performance, while giving the Democratic challenger, Troy Jackson, an "F" grade based on his Senate votes. Troy Jackson, a former state Senate President, is seeking the seat as a Collins' primary opponent. Maggie Amjad, a spokeswoman for Jackson, highlighted his support for common-sense measures to strengthen background checks and red flag protections. Collins stated that she frequently consults with Trahan on gun legislation and noted the success of a bill she supported to crack down on straw purchasing laws. The Sportsman's Alliance of Maine represents a constituency of over 30,000 members, aiming to provide information to the 300,000 licensed sportsmen and women in the state.
