Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, will vote against Todd Blanche's nomination to be attorney general, dealing a blow to President Donald Trump's pick for the nation's top law enforcement job ahead of a confirmation vote in the Senate. "While I believe Mr. Blanche is a capable lawyer, the Department of Justice has become increasingly political," Collins, who is facing a tough reelection fight, said in a statement. "Mr. Blanche has taken several actions that have further eroded the Department's independence, and that is the basis for my vote to oppose his confirmation." Collins also noted Blanche "promised an anti-abortion organization that he would seek to prohibit the mailing of abortion medication to women nationwide." Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, and Bill Cassidy, R-La., have yet to decide on Blanche's nomination — meaning the pair could sink him if they decide to join Collins in opposition.
