Reproductive Freedom for All (RFFA), a long-standing abortion rights advocacy organization, has announced a new $250,000 direct-mail campaign directed at Senator Susan Collins (R-Maine). The campaign centers on Senator Collins' 2018 vote to confirm Justice Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court. The organization is highlighting Kavanaugh’s role as part of the majority that ultimately overturned Roe v. Wade, the landmark 1973 decision that had established a constitutional right to abortion.

The campaign represents a strategic effort by the group to hold lawmakers accountable for judicial appointments that have significantly altered the landscape of reproductive rights in the United States. By focusing on the direct-mail strategy, the group aims to reach Maine voters specifically regarding the Senator's past legislative actions. Senator Collins has previously defended her vote for Justice Kavanaugh, stating at the time of his confirmation that she believed he would respect legal precedents. As of now, there has been no formal response from Senator Collins’ office regarding this specific new campaign initiative. The move underscores the ongoing political tension surrounding the Supreme Court's shift in abortion jurisprudence and the efforts of advocacy groups to influence upcoming electoral cycles by revisiting past confirmation votes.
