Members of the military put their lives on the line to keep our nation safe—they deserve access to the very best health care. The President and Congressional Republicans’ reckless cuts are jeopardizing health care access for thousands of servicemembers. That’s unacceptable.

Skipping meals, borrowing money, deferring critical medical procedures to keep up with rising health care costs—this is what the President's affordability crisis looks like for Americans. We must work toward solutions that will bring real relief to working families.

Last week, I had the privilege of meeting with the Professional Firefighters of New Hampshire and the Shipyard Professional Fire Fighters. These brave men and women are invaluable in our communities. Thank you for all that you do to keep the Granite State safe.

When it comes to Cuba, my constituents aren't asking for an incursion into yet another country. What I hear them saying is that they are worried about the high price of gas, of groceries, of housing and of child care. They want action to lower costs. Not another forever war.

CATCH Neighborhood Housing does critical work to strengthen communities and increase access to affordable housing in the Granite State. It was an honor to receive their Rosemary M. Heard Housing Champion award last night. I will keep fighting to lower housing costs in our state.

For those who have experienced domestic violence, sexual violence and sex trafficking, access to safe, affordable housing is all too often out of reach. My legislation would protect survivors from housing discrimination.

With the expiration of the ACA’s enhanced premium tax credits, 22 million Americans will see their health care costs skyrocket—with the average recipient confronting premiums that are more than double what they once paid. This is the President's health care plan in action.

Bringing federal dollars back to New Hampshire that make a real difference for our communities is one of my top priorities in Congress. It was great to see firsthand how this funding will support students in Franklin. Read more below ⬇️ www.concordmonitor.com/2026/03/09/f...
