Granite Staters are seeing housing prices at an all time high, grocery prices going up and their health insurance costs rising. People are struggling to make ends meet, and President Trump isn't doing enough to address these concerns.
Affordable, high-quality child care is an essential service that has become far too expensive for families. This year, I’ll continue working toward bipartisan solutions that will expand child care options for communities in every corner of the Granite State.
I was just in Munich for the Munich Security Conference. Every leader I talked to said they don’t believe Putin is serious about negotiating. And he’s not going to be serious until the President puts pressure on him.
President Trump promised the American people that he would bring down the cost of living and bring order to an unsettled world. More than a year into office, it is abundantly clear that he has failed to deliver on both counts. My full statement on tonight's State of the Union:
New Hampshire's only food bank distributed 20 million pounds of food last year - the most in its history. My constituents are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of groceries, and the President's tariffs and cuts to federal food assistance are making this crisis worse.
President Trump promised to lower prices. Instead, we’ve seen housing prices soar, rising health care costs and increased prices due to tariffs—squeezing families when they can least afford it. As we prepare for tonight’s State of the Union, remember: Actions speak louder than words.
Great news: DHS is cancelling plans for their facility in Merrimack. I commend all Granite Staters for making your voices heard. This is exactly why I introduced legislation yesterday to ensure that DHS can't open new facilities without local consent and transparency.
Critical minerals are the foundation of essential products and are used in everything from fighter jets to iPhones. It’s important that we work to bolster America’s domestic supply, and my SECURE Minerals Act would do just that ⬇️
The American people have foot the bill for President Trump’s trade war—and, while Secretary Bessent might not think so, they deserve a refund. I joined my colleagues in introducing a new bill to do just that. The President shouldn't stand in the way of refunds for everyday Americans.
I’m honored to have the New Hampshire Food Bank’s Executive Director, Elsy Cipriani, join me for the State of the Union address tomorrow night to highlight how President Trump's policies are raising costs and making it harder for Granite State families to put food on the table.
With DHS moving to open secretive facilities across the country and refusing to answer our questions, locals are right to be concerned. In response, I'm introducing a new bill to strengthen local oversight over proposed ICE facilities. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
From March-November last year, Granite Staters paid upwards of $500 million in tariffs. With grocery bills rising, health care premiums spiking and an ill-advised trade war, Americans are rightly anxious about the administration's handling of the economy. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/11/i...
It’s great to see Granite State athletes, including our UNH and Dartmouth competitors, represented at this year’s Winter Olympics. A special congratulations to Salem’s Caroline Harvey for taking home gold and tournament MVP with the U.S. Women's Hockey Team. You all make NH proud!
Caregivers are vital to our communities in New Hampshire, providing essential health care services to patients and creating peace of mind for their families. On National Caregivers Day, we extend our appreciation for all they do to help others.
Today marks a major step towards providing relief to Americans who have been forced to pay higher prices or lost sales due to the President’s illegal, reckless trade war. My full statement on today's Supreme Court ruling:
Today marks the annual Day of Remembrance of Japanese American Incarceration. More than 120,000 Japanese Americans were interned during World War II, and today we should work to ensure that injustices like these never occur again.
The President’s economic plan has cut health care access and food assistance for our nation's most vulnerable—all to pay for tax breaks for the wealthy. The result: struggling families and adding $4.7 trillion to the national debt by 2035. www.reuters.com/business/us-...
The Granite State was already facing a shortage of affordable housing, and under the Trump Administration, we’ve only seen this worsen. I remain committed to working toward solutions that will increase access and reduce the cost of housing in our state. www.laconiadailysun.com/news/state/n...
When President Trump threatens Canada with higher tariffs, it causes real economic harm for my constituents. His rhetoric has led to a sharp drop in Canadian tourism to our state, which takes money right out of the pockets of small business owners across NH. newhampshirebulletin.com/2026/02/09/s...
One of the most rewarding parts of my job is bringing home federal funds to support communities across NH. Recently, I had the pleasure of letting Reach for the Top Therapy in Dover know that we had secured a $181,000 grant so they can expand therapy services to children in need.
