PORTLAND, Maine (WGME) -- "Dozens of protesters took to Congress Square Park in #PortlandME on Sunday, calling on Senator Susan Collins to hold a town hall for her constituents.

"The group #IndivisibleGreaterPortland says Senator Collins has not held a town hall for Mainers in over 25 years. So, on Sunday, the group held a town hall without her.

"Participants voiced concerns about federal cuts from #DOGE, #tariffs, and Trump's talk about taking over #Greenland and Gaza.

"'People are scared. People have questions. People need answers. People don't understand what's going on. Things are just moving too fast, and they're out of touch with their elected officials who basically are sending form letters and not explaining their votes,' Marie Follayttar, who attended the event, said.

"CBS13 reached out to Senator Collins for a response but did not hear back."
