Congressional Republicans will go to any and all lengths to find programs to cut to pay for their tax scam.
Next on the chopping block? More than half a trillion dollars in funding for Medicare, all to help America’s richest line their pockets.

I don't think Americans find it appropriate for the President of the United States to use his office to enrich himself and his family. At a time when we have so many pressing challenges in the world and here at home, President Trump should be focused on doing his job.
I hear constantly from New Hampshire businesses who are extremely concerned about the President's tariffs and what it means for their ability to operate.
If Trump keeps targeting our allies like Canada, they'll do business elsewhere - and that would devastate our economy.
Great to join @cnn.com from Ottawa this morning, where I'm leading a bipartisan delegation of U.S. Senators from several Northern border states to meet with the new Prime Minister and members of his cabinet to reaffirm the importance of our strong relationship with Canada.
ENERGY STAR is a tremendously popular program that empowers American consumers and businesses to save hundreds of dollars on their utility bills.
@senpeterwelch.govpeeps.us and I are urging the EPA to abandon its plans to scrap this cost-saving, job-creating program.
The Republican tax plan: Give the top .1% $390,000 more every year - bought and paid for by folks making less than $50,000.
Put simply, they're going to take food and health care away from working families so that the ultra-wealthy can get an extra payout.
Expanding access to diabetes self-management training will allow patients to improve their well-being, live healthier lives and ultimately lower the cost of treatment. I’m proud to work across the aisle to introduce this bill and continue supporting diabetes treatment and investment.
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.

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.
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.
The Connecticut River and its watershed are a vibrant part of New England’s landscape. My legislation would create a partnership to protect and preserve this critical environmental and economic resource.

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.
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.
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?
