The Republican megabill is a big betrayal of the American people. Granite Staters know this legislation won't get our economy back on track; instead, it's going to make life more expensive by making it harder for families to afford health care, groceries and energy.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 11(source)
President Trump’s food assistance cuts will cost NH millions and put SNAP benefits at risk for thousands of Granite Staters at time when they are already fighting to stretch every dollar.   This morning, I discussed what these cuts will mean for NH with local leaders.

The Pennichuck Solar Farm is the kind of forward-looking investment we need to increase the supply of energy and lower costs. The megabill that President Trump and Congressional Republicans jammed through eliminates support for these projects, and New Hampshire will pay more because of it.

July marks Disability Pride Month and the 35th anniversary of the Americans with Disabilities Act. 1 in 4 Americans live with a disability, and this month is an opportunity to celebrate their strength, resiliency and contributions to our communities.

While not perfect, the U.S. Senate Armed Services Committee-passed annual defense bill includes provisions I fought for to improve the lives of service members and their families, invest in New Hampshire and support America's allies and partners abroad.⬇️ www.shaheen.senate.gov/after-securi...
After Securing Key New Hampshire and National Security Priorities, Shaheen Helps Advance Annual Defense Bill | U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire

Since its inception, the 14th Amendment has guaranteed citizenship to those born in the U.S. This ruling is a step in the right direction and rebukes President Trump's illegitimate efforts to violate this fundamental right.

The bottom line: As this trade war continues, prices will keep going up and more businesses will go under. Enough is enough. It's time for the President to put American businesses and consumers first and abandon his senseless trade war.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 9(source)
President Trump promised 90 trade deals in 90 days. Instead, there’s been more chaos for small businesses and higher costs for families. This trade war is unsustainable, and now it’s getting worse as President Trump threatens new tariffs ⬇️
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 8(source)
While Republicans pretend to target waste, fraud and abuse, the real fraud here is the Trump Administration for claiming that huge cuts will somehow strengthen SNAP. With grocery prices soaring, SNAP is more important than ever for Granite Staters just trying to get by.
Food pantries worried about upcoming cuts to food assistance programs
Officials with the New Hampshire Food Bank are expressing concerns that federal changes to food assistance programs, such as SNAP, could put more of a strain on the system.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 8(source)
I joined the New Hampshire Congressional delegation at Waypoint to highlight what the Republican megabill will mean for our state. At a time when costs are already up, this bill takes health care and food assistance away from Granite Staters.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 7(source)
The "Big Beautiful Bill" is a big betrayal of the American people.   When President Trump signed this legislation into law, he signed away health care for millions of families, food assistance and energy programs that lower utility bills all to give more money to the wealthiest Americans.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 7(source)
Republicans just passed a megabill that will make life more unaffordable for Americans. That's on top of Trump's tariffs that are raising costs for families by $2,000 a year. This administration's priorities are clear: Punish families to help billionaires line their pockets.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 7(source)
My heart goes out to all those impacted by the horrific floods in Texas this weekend, and to the loved ones of those who lost their lives. I extend my sincere gratitude to the first responders working around the clock to save lives amid ongoing rescue and recovery efforts.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 3(source)
I'm extremely alarmed that President Trump's proposed budget would eliminate federal funding for New Hampshire's cancer registry. In order to "Make America Healthy Again," we need to know where and when patterns of illness arise so we can tackle them head on.
Federal program that makes NH’s cancer registry possible may be cut in the 2026 budget
The cancer registry provides data on every new case of cancer in the state. Advocates and physicians say without it, cancer research won’t look the same.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJul 2(source)
The Republican megabill will take health care coverage away from tens of thousands of Granite Staters just to give billionaires a few extra bucks. I visited Monadnock Family Services to speak with local caregivers and families about what the impact of these cuts would be in NH.
