The Crime Victims Fund is a lifeline—helping survivors access critical services to get back on their feet. I'm proud to join my colleagues in this effort to help ensure victims have the support they need and deserve.
I just reintroduced a bipartisan bill to bolster a lifeline for survivors of violent crime and their families. The Crime Victims Fund helps victims recover and rebuild their lives, supporting medical and mental health care, emergency housing, and more. Let’s get it passed.
Republican-led cuts to Medicaid and the Affordable Care Act will have real costs for Granite Staters. That's why I wanted to hear directly from health care leaders, caregivers and patients today at West Central Behavioral Health.
We've known for a long time that the Granite State's rural communities have staggering maternity care gaps. Glad to see federal funding going to work to help moms access prenatal care at every stage of their pregnancy, but our work isn't done to improve access to care. www.nhpr.org/health/2025-...
Castle in the Clouds is a Granite State icon that does important work to help preserve New Hampshire’s stunning outdoor spaces and history. We talked about the work we need to do to ensure it can thrive for future generations of Granite Staters to enjoy.
I was glad to visit with Colby Footwear in Rochester and the business community in North Conway to discuss how the President’s tariffs are hurting New Hampshire’s local economy – including the summer tourism season. I’ll ensure their voices are heard in Washington.
There’s no debate: Republican-led federal funding cuts will cause 36,000 Granite Staters to lose their health care coverage—all to pay for tax breaks for billionaires. Bottom line: Under their plan, working families lose, and billionaires win.
We know what needs to be done to prevent the kind of violence that took the lives of 19 children and 2 teachers in Uvalde 3 years ago today. Congress needs to act on commonsense steps like expanding background checks, banning weapons of war and eliminating high-capacity magazines.
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. 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.
