“If they’ve accepted contributions recently from him that have not been spent, absolutely, I don’t even think it’s a close call to return the money,” Collins told CNN’s “State of the Union.”

Collins said she planned to call on Wynn to step aside from his post due to the reported allegations of sexual misconduct against the casino mogul.

“I’m very pleased that he immediately stepped down from the RNC position. I was going to call upon him to step down,” she said.

The Maine lawmaker called the allegations against Wynn, which were reported by The Wall Street Journal, “very serious.” She also noted that she had never taken any money from the former chairman.

“So I think they’re very serious allegations and should be treated as such and I’m pleased to say that I’ve never received any money from Mr. Wynn so I have no money to return,” she said.

Wynn, who was named an RNC official after President Trump Donald John TrumpBiden leads Trump by 36 points nationally among Latinos: poll Trump dismisses climate change role in fires, says Newsom needs to manage forest better Jimmy Kimmel hits Trump for rallies while hosting Emmy Awards MORE’s inauguration, faces sexual misconduct allegations going back decades.

The Journal reported that Wynn reached a $7.5 million settlement with an employee at his Wynn Las Vegas property who said he forced her to have sex with him.

RNC Chairwoman Ronna Romney McDaniel said Saturday that she accepted Wynn’s resignation.

Republicans called upon Democrats last year to return donations from disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein after a series of sexual assault and harassment allegations were made against him.
