Original Note:
Collins voted against 2013 amendments that would have banned assault rifles and high capacity magazines. However, she voted for a 2013 bill that would have expanded background checks at gun shows, and for a 2022 law that expands checks for young buyers. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/oct/26/maine-shootings-republican-senator-susan-collins https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2022/05/25/us/gun-control-republican-senators.html https://www.newsweek.com/susan-collins-gun-control-stance-faces-scrutiny-after-maine-mass-shooting-1838047
