Washington, D.C. — U.S. Senator Susan Collins released the following statement on the nomination of Stacey Neumann to serve as a U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Maine:

“I will support confirmation of Stacey Neumann to serve as a U.S. District Court Judge for the District of Maine based on her extensive legal experience, including as a prosecutor, her in-depth interview with me, and her hearing and background investigation by the Senate Judiciary Committee. I have concluded that she possesses the integrity, intellect, and impartiality to serve in this critical position.”
