WASHINGTON, D.C. (WGAN) Maine’s two U.S. Senators have joined a growing chorus of colleagues calling for Minnesota Sen. Al Franken.
“The latest allegation adds to a very disturbing list of allegations against Senator Franken. And I think it would be best for the Senate if he followed the advice of his Democratic colleagues,” Sen. Susan Collins told CNN Wednesday afternoon.
Sen. Angus King issued a statement on his Twitter page.
