Cutting 80,000 workers from the VA, threatening the future of Social Security offices and taking a chainsaw to efforts that bolster the U.S.'s global standing isn't efficient—it's destructive, and it's working Americans who will lose access to the programs they rely on.
Proud to introduce the Defense Workforce Integration Act with bipartisan support in both the Senate and House. As our defense workforce faces recruitment and retention challenges for vital roles, we should be doing all we can to fill vacancies that bolster our national security.
US senator's bill eases path to defense jobs for military recruits with medical issues reut.rs/4iU4PpT
New data from the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office confirms what we feared: If Congressional Republicans get their way and gut Medicaid, millions of Americans—including children and seniors—will lose their health insurance entirely. Time to scrap this misguided proposal.
CBO: Millions could lose coverage if GOP pulls back on Medicaid expansion
#JewishAmericanHeritageMonth is an opportunity to celebrate the contributions of the vibrant Jewish American communities in New Hampshire and across the nation. We must also reaffirm our commitment to rooting out hatred and bigotry—antisemitism has no place in America.
Small businesses are the lifeblood of the Granite State’s economy, but it’s getting more costly and difficult for local entrepreneurs to open up shop. Our commonsense legislation would give entrepreneurs a helping hand up so they can succeed and fuel job growth.
Upfront costs are one of the biggest barriers to starting a new business. This National Small Business Week, I’m introducing commonsense legislation to increase the startup tax deduction and help Nevada’s entrepreneurs pursue their dream of starting a business.
Congressional Republicans are looking for $880 billion in federal funding to cut so that they can slash taxes for the wealthiest. Their #1 target: Medicaid. Targeting the health care children, disabled folks and those in long-term care depend on, is cruel and out of touch.
On the campaign trail, President Trump said he was going to lower prices on housing, food, energy and more. He's done none of that in his first 100 days. What he's done is embark on a tariff war that is having significant impacts on businesses across New Hampshire.
It’s National Nurses Day, and I want to thank all the nurses in New Hampshire and across the U.S. for the compassionate, life-saving care they provide. We can always do more to support nurses. I’ll keep working to increase access to training programs that address care shortages.
Happy #TeacherAppreciationWeek to all the educators in the Granite State and beyond! As a former teacher, I couldn’t be more appreciative of the hard work teachers put in every day to provide the best education possible for their students.
In light of recent reports that Elon Musk used his White House role to advance his own personal business interests abroad, President Trump must immediately open an investigation into this flagrant corruption. www.nbcnews.com/tech/elon-mu...
May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and a reminder that we need more federal resources, not less, to make care more accessible. Trump must release the more than $80 million that New Hampshire relies on from Health and Human Services to address public health crises, including mental health care.
Trump's Tariff Taxes are hurting American businesses—including businesses essential to our national security. I recently visited New Hampshire Ball Bearings to learn more about how their business is being disrupted.
It's the first day of Military Family Appreciation Month—a time when we honor the sacrifices military families make every day to support their loved ones serving at home and abroad. It's also up to us to ensure that military families have the support they need and deserve.
Americans elected Donald Trump in part because he vowed to lower the price of ‘everything’ – yet in the first quarter of Trump’s presidency, our GDP shrank, prices jumped and economists across the political spectrum are saying a recession is likely this year. apnews.com/article/econ...
As President Trump eyes opportunities to expand offshore drilling, I joined New England’s bipartisan delegation in introducing legislation to safeguard our coast from disastrous oil spills that cause economic and environmental devastation for our communities. thepulseofnh.com/hassan-shahe...
On the campaign trail, Trump promised to ‘immediately’ bring prices down, starting on day one. One hundred days in, it is painfully obvious that President Trump has done the exact opposite. My full statement below⬇️ www.shaheen.senate.gov/shaheen-trum...
