Secretary Hegseth was unwilling to answer when does this end. The President campaigned last year saying, 'no forever wars,' and yet there is the potential to get into another endless war in the Middle East.
iPhones. Microwaves. Cars. Solar Panels. These, and much more, all require critical minerals. Critical minerals may seem abstract, but they power our lives in so many ways—and it’s essential we have a reliable supply of these key inputs. My SECURE Minerals Act does just that.
We need to be providing more arms and weapons that the Ukrainians need. We need to amp up the pressure on the Russian economy to shut down their war machine. We need to make it really tough for Russia so that Putin comes to the table.
Under Republican leadership, we’ve seen Medicaid slashed, premiums skyrocket and millions of Americans drop coverage as they feel the pain of higher costs. This is unacceptable. We must work toward commonsense solutions that will improve health care access and lower costs.
As communities struggle under President Trump's cuts to food assistance, they're also dealing with his tariffs at a cost of $1,600 a household. My constituents are being squeezed on both sides—paying more after cuts to food assistance while seeing higher grocery bills.
Granite Staters are seeing housing prices at an all time high, grocery prices going up and their health insurance costs rising. People are struggling to make ends meet, and President Trump isn't doing enough to address these concerns.
Affordable, high-quality child care is an essential service that has become far too expensive for families. This year, I’ll continue working toward bipartisan solutions that will expand child care options for communities in every corner of the Granite State.
I was just in Munich for the Munich Security Conference. Every leader I talked to said they don’t believe Putin is serious about negotiating. And he’s not going to be serious until the President puts pressure on him.
President Trump promised the American people that he would bring down the cost of living and bring order to an unsettled world. More than a year into office, it is abundantly clear that he has failed to deliver on both counts. My full statement on tonight's State of the Union:
New Hampshire's only food bank distributed 20 million pounds of food last year - the most in its history. My constituents are struggling to keep up with the rising cost of groceries, and the President's tariffs and cuts to federal food assistance are making this crisis worse.
President Trump promised to lower prices. Instead, we’ve seen housing prices soar, rising health care costs and increased prices due to tariffs—squeezing families when they can least afford it. As we prepare for tonight’s State of the Union, remember: Actions speak louder than words.
Great news: DHS is cancelling plans for their facility in Merrimack. I commend all Granite Staters for making your voices heard. This is exactly why I introduced legislation yesterday to ensure that DHS can't open new facilities without local consent and transparency.
Critical minerals are the foundation of essential products and are used in everything from fighter jets to iPhones. It’s important that we work to bolster America’s domestic supply, and my SECURE Minerals Act would do just that ⬇️
The American people have foot the bill for President Trump’s trade war—and, while Secretary Bessent might not think so, they deserve a refund. I joined my colleagues in introducing a new bill to do just that. The President shouldn't stand in the way of refunds for everyday Americans.
I’m honored to have the New Hampshire Food Bank’s Executive Director, Elsy Cipriani, join me for the State of the Union address tomorrow night to highlight how President Trump's policies are raising costs and making it harder for Granite State families to put food on the table.
With DHS moving to open secretive facilities across the country and refusing to answer our questions, locals are right to be concerned. In response, I'm introducing a new bill to strengthen local oversight over proposed ICE facilities. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
