As Senator, Longley chaired both the Judiciary Committee and the Health and Human Services Committee. She was known as a champion of family issues such as health care, child care, and family-friendly business practices. Some examples of Susan Longley’s successful work on family issues include naming and helping to craft policy and assisting Maine families with “Cub Care” (now “Maine Care”), the state’s health care program for children and working parents – a health care plan that remains a national model; establishing a nationally acclaimed incentive program for employers who help employees with their families’ health insurance needs; establishing Maine’s first-ever Family Court Division (in Maine’s District Courts), expanding Maine’s drug courts both for juveniles and adults, and crafting and organizing Maine’s successful, national-model child care initiatives.view less
