It's been 14 years since the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy was reversed, and today our Armed Forces are stronger because of it.
I was proud to fight for the rights of our LGBTQ+ service members, veterans and their families then, and I'll continue to do so now.

The Senate is voting on two government funding proposals today. I'll be voting for the plan that protects access to health care and lowers costs.
A government shutdown is in no one's interest. It's time to find a bipartisan path forward.
Throughout America's history, our men and women in uniform have made so many sacrifices to protect our freedom.
On National POW/MIA Recognition Day, we honor all those service members who are missing and unaccounted for, and we recommit to bringing them home to their families.
Republicans are hearing from their constituents and from Trump's own pollsters that failing to extend ACA enhanced premium tax credits will be a disaster.
If Republicans come to the table, I'm ready to work with them to prevent a huge price spike for tens of millions of people.
Extending ACA enhanced premium tax credits before they expire is urgent.
If my Republican colleagues keep stalling until later this year, 1.5 million more people will lose health coverage, and it will cost billions more.
We need to get this done as quickly as possible.
✈️ Happy 78th birthday to the U.S. Air Force and Air National Guard!
Thank you to the brave service members who protect our skies and our nation.
If the Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits expire, millions of Americans—including my constituent Paul—will have to make difficult choices about what they can live without so they can afford health insurance.
That's unacceptable.
To my Republican colleagues who don't understand that the expiration of ACA enhanced premium tax credits is a financial issue for my constituents and millions of Americans ⬇️
Tariffs are taxes that Americans pay.
Let's break it down: When President Trump puts tariffs on imported goods, businesses pay more. Those higher costs are then passed on to you, the consumer.
➡️Tariffs are taxes, and they're spiking the price of everyday goods that people rely on.
🗳️ It's National Voter Registration Day!
Voting in free and fair elections is the bedrock of our democracy.

At a time when food costs are already too high for families, Republicans made catastrophic cuts to food assistance.
They're ripping support away from thousands of Granite Staters who need it most, and we're going to see increased hunger across the state as a result.
As we kick off National Hispanic Heritage Month, I hope Granite Staters will join me to celebrate the culture, history and contributions of Latino and Hispanic Americans across the country and in New Hampshire.
31 years ago today, the Violence Against Women Act was signed into law, providing survivors with the resources they need to find safety and recover from abuse.
These programs are a lifeline for survivors of domestic and sexual violence, and I'll always fight to support them.
I spoke with my constituent Paul who, like tens of millions of other Americans, relies on Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits to keep health care costs down.
If Republicans continue blocking my legislation, their premiums will skyrocket and many will lose coverage.
It was great to have folks from the New Hampshire VFW stop by my Washington D.C. office this week.
Thank you for everything you do to serve and advocate on behalf of the Granite State's military members and veterans.
This administration already jammed through a billionaire tax break. Now they're abandoning IRS enforcement efforts that shut down loopholes used by the wealthiest to avoid paying taxes.
This is just the latest move in the Trump playbook: Billionaires win, working Americans lose.
September 11th, 2001, was a day of shock, sadness and tragedy that left no American untouched.
We stand in solidarity to remember the nearly 3,000 lives that were lost and to honor the selfless and heroic efforts of our first responders on that day.
Republicans in Congress have now blocked three attempts to extend the expiring tax credits that help tens of millions of Americans afford their health insurance.
We must act now as Americans face sky-high premiums in 2026.
www.cnbc.com/2025/09/10/a...
About half of those who enroll in ACA coverage to access affordable health care work at or own a small business.
Failure to extend these tax credits will be a massive blow to the small businesses that create jobs and power local economies.
Congress must act now.
It would be devastating if Congressional Republicans allow Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits to expire at the end of the year.
Pulling the rug out from under working families—especially at a time when so many are struggling to make ends meet—would be catastrophic.
