ACA premium tax credits put money in the pockets of working Americans—providing relief from sky high health care costs eating up monthly budgets. Without action they'll expire in January. The Republican response? Prioritizing a tax break for billionaires instead.
I’m calling on President Trump to follow Steve Bannon’s advice and prohibit special government employees like Elon Musk from profiting off of non-public government information they acquired during their government service. It’s a commonsense way to root out corruption.
Scooplet: In a letter first shared w/ @nbcnews.com, Sen. @shaheen.senate.gov urged President Trump to require Elon Musk + other special government employees involved in DOGE to sign a certification that they won't use nonpublic information to their benefit. MORE: www.nbcnews.com/politics/tru...
We're finally starting to turn the tide on the substance use disorder crisis, but reckless federal funding cuts will put our progress at risk. Just today, Secretary Kennedy wouldn't commit to preserving the State Opioid Response grant - a program that has literally saved lives in New Hampshire.
We’ve made great strides towards ending the substance use disorder crisis, but even just 1 death due to a drug overdose is a tragedy. We need to keep up the support that has made this progress possible. Trump's federal funding cuts could set us back and put more lives at risk.
US drug overdose deaths dropped last year by 27%, but experts warn federal cuts could threaten that progress
Wherever we can, we should be looking for opportunities to solve challenges for everyday Americans in a bipartisan way. The commonsense legislation I introduced with Senator Hawley last week would prevent Big Pharma from getting tax breaks for their drug advertisements.
Without access to health insurance coverage, patients are often forced to delay care until it reaches crisis levels. That means higher medical bills and less economic independence. The fact is: cutting Medicaid won’t save money, it will cost money.
For 60 years now, Head Start has made high-quality early education available for thousands of working families. With Trump threatening to eliminate this program, we need to push back for the children and families whose lives have been changed for the better thanks to Head Start.
International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia and Transphobia is a reminder of our ongoing efforts to ensure justice for LGBTQ+ people at home and abroad. Discrimination or violence against these communities because of who they love and how they identify is unconscionable.
While Trump scrambles to fix the damage caused by his most extreme tariffs, the reality is that Americans are still facing tariffs that amount to a national sales tax. We need policies that lower prices and address the cost-of-living crisis. His tariffs are doing the opposite.
We know the facts: Forever chemicals are not safe in drinking water. I’ve fought for a decade to get PFAS out of drinking water - now, President Trump is actively trying to allow more PFAS in drinking water for longer, all while dismantling key research and enforcement efforts.
The Environmental Protection Agency plans to rescind and reconsider limits on four different “forever chemicals” under a landmark drinking water standard implemented last year by President Joe Biden, according to documents reviewed by The Post.
I've been sounding the alarm on our nation's understaffed and overworked air traffic control system for years. It's time for Congress to invest in comprehensive reform by passing my bipartisan Air Traffic Control Workforce Development Act.
Delays continue to affect flights at Newark Liberty International Airport, due to an air traffic control staffing shortage. As CNN previously reported, at least five controllers there took 45 days of trauma leave after losing radar and radio communication on April 28.
This President’s business dealings—between his crypto coin scheme, his investments in Qatar for a golf course, this plane—raise serious questions. Is he more committed to the American people or himself, his bank account and his family?
At a time when tariffs and rising prices are squeezing New Hampshire small businesses, it’s especially important to recognize the extraordinary contributions small business owners and entrepreneurs make. It was a pleasure to celebrate their achievements today in Manchester.
House Republicans' budget proposal? Boot 13.7 million Americans from their health insurance to make life easier for billionaires. It's outrageous – and it's imperative that we reject this "plan" in a bipartisan way.
During #NationalWomensHealthWeek, we have to push back against the Trump Administration's attacks on women's health care. We should be lowering barriers to care, not raising them. No matter what, I'm committed to improving access and lowering the cost of women's health care.
65 years ago, in a milestone medical breakthrough, the FDA approved the first birth-control pill. We should be working to support the next milestone breakthrough. Instead, this administration is dismantling our research institutions and restricting access to reproductive care.
I think we can all get behind making the federal government work better, but when we do it in a way that allows millions of tons of food and medicine to rot because we’ve cut funding that ensures it gets to the people who need it, that is not efficient and effective.
