Across New Hampshire, small businesses have told me how the threat of extreme tariffs has made it impossible to maintain current operations, let alone grow and compete. That threat has become a reality. President Trump must immediately reverse course before he runs our economy into the ground.

Firing everyone responsible for a program that helps 30,000+ Granite Staters pay their utility bills is nothing short of reckless. We're already bracing for higher energy costs from Trump's tariffs on Canada. Now, one of our best tools to help keep folks warm will be paralyzed.

The Trump administration on Tuesday eliminated the entire staff of a federal program that helps low-income households pay utility bills, sources say.

Innovators who are disabled deserve equal access to federal programs. Glad to see the Federal Reserve heeding our bipartisan effort to get more info about entrepreneurs with disabilities so that we can ensure they have the resources needed to start and expand their small businesses.

108 years ago today, Jeannette Rankin opened the door for women in the halls of Congress. To this day, her legacy continues to inspire women and girls across the country to run for office and demand a seat at the table.

There's nothing efficient about illegally firing workers. There's nothing efficient about failing to pay small businesses for work they've already done. There's nothing efficient about breaking government services that Americans rely on.

Planned Parenthood of Northern New England has confirmed they are part of this disastrous freeze. They provide thousands of Granite Staters with essential services including cancer screenings and family planning services. Make no mistake, this is a direct attack on women.

The Trump administration will begin to withhold some federal funding from Planned Parenthood starting Tuesday, a move that will curtail access to services including cancer screenings and affordable birth control, the organization said.

We must do everything we can to ensure that survivors of sexual assault have the resources and support they need. I was proud to lead efforts to establish a Sexual Assault Survivors’ Bill of Rights and I'll always continue to support survivors. #SexualAssaultAwarenessMonth

This morning I stopped by Chatila's Bakery in Derry to discuss the hardship caused by Trump's tariffs on Canada. What I heard today is what I've heard from too many small businesses across the state; these tariffs and tariff threats are causing real harm to the Granite State.

Hardworking Americans have paid into Social Security for their entire lives. Targeting rural offices, cutting staff and making services worse isn't how you serve Americans who are just trying to access their hard-earned benefits. It's not efficient; it's shameful.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govMar 28(source)
Donald Trump found out he can’t fire the thousands of public servants he wants to, and now he’s going after their unions to eliminate protections. All so he can clear the way for tax breaks for his billionaire friends on the backs of working Americans. We won’t stand for it.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govMar 27(source)
Extreme, misguided court rulings like Citizens United have flooded our elections with dark money and special interests that drown out the voices of citizens. Today, I’m introducing a Constitutional amendment to overturn the decision and return the power to the American people.

Manufactured housing is one of the most affordable options for families, but residents often face rent hikes and evictions. The Manufactured Housing Tenant’s Bill of Rights would ensure that residents of federally backed mobile home parks have the legal protections they deserve.

Across the country, our air traffic control system is understaffed and overworked. Yesterday, I met with representatives from the National Air Traffic Controllers Association to discuss these ongoing challenges and my bipartisan legislation to provide the support they need.

Happy Greek Independence Day to all those celebrating in New Hampshire and around the world! Today we celebrate the strong relationship between Greece and the U.S. and recognize the contributions of New Hampshire’s vibrant Hellenic community.

I'm extremely concerned by reports that some food banks and emergency providers are losing access to federal funding that was promised to them. These services are a lifeline for the most vulnerable Americans and families, and it's indefensible that these billionaires would target them.
